I’m on Finasteride 1mg for a year now and I have the worse side effects low libido , ED, depression, mood swings, unable to focus and a few more . I believe this drug is poison and no one should use it believing some random Aholes on YouTube . I definitely screwed my life .

Now what I want to understand is how to get off this drug ? Anyone stopped it and noticed withdrawal symptoms?

Stopped twice to conceive twice. No withdrawal symptoms; just noticed some accelerated hair loss while off.

It seems cruel that the solution to one issue would create another set of huge issues, hopefully things go back to normal for you.

I feel like there’s a smarmy comment to be made here considering how women’s birth control can create massive issues too, but honestly I’m too tired of birth control being awful for anyone/everyone. Wishing everyone who is trying to solve birth control no further issues caused by the proposed solution.

Just restarted stimulants and already I'm dealing with twitches again. Does anyone else get these? No type of pain or anything just every once and a while my body will twitch strongly. Afterward I feel normal, but it's a bit annoying, and I can't control it at all which is a little disconcerting. Don't remember this from when I took stimulants as a kid, but it's been a while.

Hi All,

I have 4 yrs of exp as full stack developer and my current CTC is 15 lpa and notice period is of 3 months. I got an offer from another firm for 24lpa but they have shared the offer letter of DOJ after 2 months and asked me to negotiate my notice period or look for buyout. What should I do in this case? Should I connect with my current hr to negotiate? Cause I tried convincing the new hr to share the offer letter of DOJ after 3 months but she is not in the favour of that.

Trying to have faith but my recent cycle netted 16 eggs, 8 fertilized and only 2 made it to day 5 for testing. There were 3 others that just didn’t mature. This is my third cycle and I’ve been pretty positive up until today. It’s especially hard to get this news in the middle of a work day. Just tired, still bloated and not feeling all that hopeful as we enter this LONG wait until we get the results next week. I hate feeling like this knowing my chances are getting slimmer by the day.
