Understanding PFS with Dr. Greg Emerson

Dr Greg Emerson- loving partner, proud father, physician, permaculture farmer, sustainable living advocate and wilderness survival enthusiast. He is interviewed regularly on America’s most popular health television programme because of his dedication to finding the underlying root cause of illnesses. He writes regularly for one of Americas most widely distributed health newsletters. When not working in his clinic he is tending to his garden, caring for his animals, roaming the wilderness or practicing his survival skills.

He was the Founder and Medical Director of the Emerson Health and Wellness Centre which opened in October 2005. From May 2008 to October 2011 he was co-director of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine Queensland. He then again decided to take the road less travelled and founded Dr Greg Emerson’s Treat the Cause Clinic, based in Brisbane. He is a consultant in Nutritional and Environmental Medicine, a senior specialist in Emergency Medicine and in Diving and Hyperbaric Medicine.

Post-finasteride syndrome is a devastating condition that afflicts men who’ve taken finasteride for hair loss (under the Propecia brand) or enlarged prostate (Proscar). Persistent symptoms include loss of libido, erectile dysfunction, depression, suicidal ideation, anxiety, panic attacks, Peyronie’s disease, penile shrinkage, gynecomastia, muscle atrophy, cognitive impairment, insomnia, severely dry skin, and tinnitus

While there’s currently no cure for PFS, clinical research offers hope that effective treatments will be developed in the coming years. PFS Global Support, hosted by Amir Karkouti, is here to provide a gathering place where we all can share information and offer mutual support.
