I`v been on 5mg/day finasteride for nearly 3 years now and haven`t had any problems, suicidal thoughts and panic attacks stopped as soon as I came out and started trasition, the brain fog though... I`m really not sure about that?
I`d need a better definition of "fog" really, but I Do spend an incredible amount of time daydreaming since transition, and I`m really ditzy at times, something I was never like before.
I can lose Hours at a time just daydreaming, i sleep really well now so it isn`t that, I don`t drink or smoke or take any sort of meds other than my HRT, so it`s not that. my creativity has gone through the roof! but I have less interest in Technical stuff that I used to really love before, now it`s like I`ll design it for you, but you`ll have to build it yourself! whereas I used to do both before. Brain fog???

Can you buy finasteride over the counter, or is it a prescription drug? Secondly, 5mg is a very small daily does. Does such a small dose warrant taking it at all?
