Re: Low DHEA and High Cortisol caused by propecia

Hi Blue,

I didn't realise that someone with basically normal DHEA would benefit from a boost. I just got my labs back and talking with naturo tomorrow so I guess I'll see.

Propecia caused it, eh?

Propecia had a weird effect on me. About 10 years ago I had a certain strength (weak) and my buddy who was essentially bald had a stronger dose. We were living in Europe so had it purpose made at the specialist we went to.

That worked fine til one day I picked up the dose for both of us, and used mine. The day after I went from having totally normal pee flow to having "old man drips" for lack of a better term. I could pee fine, but it didn't shut off as well as it used to.

I figured out pretty quickly they had given me the wrong dosage, but going off it didn't fix the issue. Embarassing to be honest. It's only recently that I feel it's getting better although not perfect. (Maybe I've just forgotten health and adapted.)

It was about that time I started to get stronger early AF symptoms. To be fair though that was likely due to unrelated real life issues. And true AF didn't hit for years afterwards.

Anyway, be well. Tweet
