Hi guys,
I have PFS now for 10 years. I started propecia back in 2009 for 1 years and got terrible sides after 9 months. Since then, I recover quite well from sexual sides and decided to re-try topical finasteride in 2016 a big mistake. I didn't impact a lot of my libido, but it gave me anhedonia, terrible anxiety that result in panic attack, insomnia and just being unable to cope with any normal life external stressor.
I tried keto diet for like a 1y going hard core keto, but it didn't help it make things quite worst. Now I'm back on a normal diet since quite 2y but I'm still struggling from bad anxiety and depression.
I made some blood test recently and here are the result.
Prolactin => 24,4 ng/ml
Cortisol => 623 nmol/L
T => 5,36 ng/ml
Free T => 74pmol/l
Biodispo T => 4,4nmol/l
DHT=> 1,1 nmol/L
T4 free => 15,2ng/l
T3 free => 4pg/ml
TSH => 2,35mUI/l
I know from another test that I also have low serotonin. I would like to focus on lowering the prolactin to see if it get better first and then focus on testosterone.
Thanks for your help.
