For nine months, William McKee took the generic version of Propecia, the pills that promise to halt hair loss.

But the drug had radical side effects: Instead of becoming a better-looking man, he started becoming a woman, he claims.

Uh ya sure dude, so why didn’t you stop taking them when you noticed the changes?

I surely hope that no jury buys this lame excuse of a tranny but they probably will.

Funny,pretty much the opposite happened to “Chaz” Bono.

He should have known. Here is what happens when you date Propecia.

Total BS.

Finasteride was developed to shrink an enlarged prostate.

Doesn’t and can’t make you into a girl in any way.

I have been taking Propecia for nearly twenty years.

All it’s done is leave me with a full head of hair and the envy of bald azz brother....

%%
Looking out at the mirror again (ah-woop)
I used to feel very bald.
And when I knew I had to face another day (ah-woop)
Lord, it made me feel so old.
Before the day I met you, life was so unkind
Then you promised me some peace of mind-

But you made me feel,
You make me feel,
You make me feel like
An unnatural woman
(Woman...)

breast enlargement is a known side effect of propecia. He should have stopped drug. Also other legal and illegal drugs can cause breast enlargement. An argument could be made to just go with it as he might be more employable as a female software person. Propecia is identical to another drug used for prostate problems called proscar except that the dose of propecia is 1/5 the proscar dose to try to prevent side effects.

“My rock-hard chest from the gym began to soften . . . reaching the point where I had noticeable ‘breasts’ even under my clothing,” he says.

Of course his new flat screen TV, new couch and his fondness for beer and pizza had nothing tho do with it.

(S)he ended up much hotter, so I guess things worked out ok then?

[Paradox]

Not surprising that he got side effects, I am just wondering why he kept on taking it. In fact, Finasteride (Propecia) is part of a hormone cocktail that they can give from male to female transexuals.

ALTER BOY: William McKee goes by “Mandi” these days; he says a baldness treatment made him a gay cross-dresser.

[pallis]

Take estrogen reducing drugs to counter the effects, and also help shrink the prostate.

It had been a while since I had seen it and I rewatched it after posting the link. I was surprised at the amount of profanity- I think the original video may have bleeped out much of it.

But, yes, it is one of the funniest videos I have seen and it takes you by surprise when you see the matchup. I think I may have watched the real show when it was on eons ago.
