Is spiro safe for males?

[x2Z]

I'm just curious if I should take some spiro to treat my acne. I am a male and I am just worried about what it can do to me. Will it lower my testosterone levels? I work out and am trying to gain some muscle, so would taking the spiro stop be from getting muscle if it does lower testosterone? What are some side effects?

Thanks alot!

Hi there. I am also very concerned about this. I just took my first 25 mg spiro about 30 min ago. So far I feel a little tired. I used to work out hard core and was sculpting a nice upper body but my chest back and neck is so bad with cyctic acne and scars that I never take my shirt off EVER. I would rather be a little smaller and able to take my shirt off any day. I will keep you posted on how it works.

I am very scared of taking madications but unlike accutane any neagtive side effects I have heard from Spiro is not permanent. When you stop taking it they go away. If you even get any at all. I say give it a shot.

Aldactone is the same thing as Spiro, right?

I just looked at drugstore.com and yes it looks to be the same thing. Im sure one is just gerneic and one is name brand.

Does it really lower testosterone levels? If I am going to continue working out, should i still take spiro?

thanks...
