In this interview on the Moral Medicine YouTube channel, former professional boxer, Chris Hooper, shares his story of taking Finasteride and how it tragically resulted in the loss of his boxing career. To this day, Chris still struggles with the persistent sexual side effects that are common amongst PFS sufferers and the regret of ever taking this drug. His story is a powerful reminder of the potential risks associated with Finasteride and the importance of awareness and support for those affected. Join us as Chris opens up about his journey, the impact on his loved ones, and his message to others considering this medication.
Post-Finasteride Syndrome is the current term for a rare syndrome characterized by devastating physical, neurological, and sexual side effects that persist and progress even after stopping finasteride. This condition occurs primarily in younger men who have taken the drug to treat hair loss, and there is currently no effective treatment available.PFS has a disastrous impact on patients, their families, and their friends. It often leads to disability, isolation, and even suicide. Every person is valuable, and everyone deserves to make a fully informed choice about their health.
More research into Post-Finasteride Syndrome is desperately needed. Learn more about and support the newest scientific initiative here: https://www.pfsnetwork.org/science
