Effects of Finasteride on Test Levels?

[matto18]

i'm about to jump on the propecia train and i want to know what effects this will have on my test levels. i've heard the usual line, that lowering DHT will hinder my gains, but i also read on this board a few weeks ago that finasteride somehow increases free test. whats the verdict on this? will finasteride hinder my gains?

I've been on 1mg of Finastride for about a year and a half, and I don't "feel" like I have lowered test levels (libido).

DHT helps regulate estrogen in males. Take anything that blocks DHT and you have the risk of high estrogen leves (which is why there is a gyno risk on propecia/proscar). Not worth it in my opinion. I don't think this drug will elevate T levels, quite the opposite is possible.....
Fuck it, take topical DHT blockers for hair loss.

i've been on propecia for about 4 months. i have woodies actually more often than before. wierd i know but true. it has done nothing to me when it comes to libido. horny as hell. and havn't noticed anything different in the gym.
