In fact, I don't remember taking medicine (pinasteride) as a precautionary measure, so I don't have much effect, and I haven't felt any major side effects physically after taking it for 3-4 years. At best, I have a heartburn?
However, during the period of taking the medicine, I mentally suffered from the following two symptoms, so I share my experiences.
It's not necessarily like this when you take medicine, but I hope you can just listen to it with your personal experience.
1. melancholy
At first, I didn't know anything and when I took the medicine, I felt safe now, so I felt rather relieved. But at this time, I have a severe depression. Looking back, there was no reason for that, but I was depressed without context. The relationship with everyone I met was so bad that it broke down. Since then, the vicious cycle has continued, and we have suffered greatly for several years. You might say, "Didn't you not mature mentally?" But now that I think about it, I was always depressed even though I had no reason to be depressed, and compared to now, about two years after I stopped taking medicine, I remember feeling a little hazy at the time and unpleasant like the morning I went to work all night. Fortunately, I live a healthy and happy life without being jealous of others. There is no way to determine the causality of the drug department, but I can tell you that I have experienced very overlapping periods.
2. tiredness
It's somewhat overlapping with number 1, but I remember being a little tired even if I stayed still because my sensitive mental state continues to be maintained. Rather than being tired, I think it's a more appropriate expression after being mentally tired. I can't concentrate no matter what I do because I'm constantly tired. The result is poor because I can't concentrate no matter what I do. As the result is clumsy, you care about the gaze around you. As I pay attention to my surroundings, my self-esteem decreases. It was an experience that I realized that this is how the saying that a healthy body has a healthy mind comes out. Now, I think that the medicine may have caused fatigue by metabolizing in the liver. However, I can tell you that there is no doubt that it is a very critical side effect that rapidly reduces the quality of life.
