I can’t find the study I was referring to but I did find these that back up the idea that it’s all in your head.
Sexual side effects were significantly lower in the group that was not told they were a possibility

In the current study, blinded administration of finasteride was associated with a significantly higher proportion of sexual dysfunction in patients informed on sexual side effects (group 2) as compared to those in which the same information was omitted (group 1) (P = 0.03). A scenario similar to gro …
I’ve been on it for almost 10 years now. It’s the most effective way to regrow hair but needs to be started before the hair follicle dies. The science speaks for itself. 90 percent of guys stop losing their hair after they start it. 75 actually regrow hair. I was in the 75%.
Also the whole “down there” problems is a myth also proven by statistics. If you’ll look into the studies where they show a low percentage of guys have ED issues you’ll also see that the control groups that received a placebo also reported ED issues less than a percent lower than the group that received finasteride. I honestly don’t understand why some doctors will list it as a side effect other than there was technically a fraction of a percent increase. As you know most ED issues in young healthy men simply come from their own minds and the fact that a placebo yielded very similar results suggests this is the case with finasteride.
Now there is proof that finasteride can lower sperm count (not semen volume) which could lead to issues having children but studies have shown stopping finasteride reverses the decrease. I remember seeing an interview with Ashton Kutcher years ago where we was talking about his hair thinning but that it was only because he went off finasteride while he and Mila had been trying to have a second child and that his hair would be thickening back up soon since he was back on the pill.
I’ve met many men on finasteride over the last decade and only one of them complained about side effects and he was an anxiety ridden hypochondriac. If you don’t want to have ED issues just don’t worry about it. It’s all in your head.
You should start to see phases of shedding followed by regrowth starting around 4 to 6 months. Don’t worry about it, it’s just the new thicker hair pushing out the old finer hair. It will probably happen several times. Year 1 to year 2 is where you’ll start to see true results. Good luck with the hair growth!
Bought an Asus Mesh wifi system for my 1,800 sq. ft house. Put them on opposite ends and I don’t have a single corner with bad coveragge. I feel confident it would still for work well for a much bigger house. I had done a little research and this was what I came up with as the best quality for the price. I had to watch a YouTube walk through to set it up but it’s not overly complicated as long as you’re patient. Could probably find the video if you ended up needing it.
Don’t judge me I did buy it off Amazon but it was well before the election and boycotts. https://a.co/d/0dOCQqFM
