Thread: Finasteride 'destroyed' his fertility - man's sperm count goes to 0 on the drug

Oh... ****.



Nah, i'm out. **** that **** bros.

My husband (33y) and I (34y) had been trying for about 1.5 years and he recently got his first semen analysis results back which detected 0 sperm. He saw a urologist who said his physical exam looked normal so they he did bloodwork, which came back with 376 testosterone, 9.2 FSH and 2.2 LH. The urologist was originally suspecting obstructive azoospermia but said since the FSH is a tad high he is now thinking it may be non-obstructive. Also, he said range for testosterone is 300-1000 so my husband is at the lower end of the normal range.

All that said, my husband has been on propecia /finasteride for 10-12 years and from researching it looks like it can definitely affect sperm counts. Research shows the sperm counts can improve after stopping the drug but not 100% of the time. It can take awhile to improve too...seems like anywhere from 3-12+ months. In those studies the men were on it for a lot less than 10 years though.

He stopped taking the medicine a week before the semen analysis. We are waiting another 3 months before he does another one. This next one will be through a reproductive endocrinologist. Hopefully the endocrinologist can help figure out if there are any other issues with hormones.

Anyways, my question is has anyone else experienced azoospermia after taking propecia / finasteride and what was the outcome?

Thanks!
