Taking finasteride 1 mg intermittently for about 10 days is unlikely to cause permanent changes in sexual function. Finasteride can affect sexual symptoms in some people, but an increased semen volume after a short course is not a typical or reliable indicator of sexual damage. A prolonged period of arousal, longer interval between ejaculations, hydration status and normal variation can all make semen appear more abundant temporarily. Also, 14 days of noticing increased semen volume does not by itself mean that you have pathological hyperspermia. The fact that your erectile function has already returned to normal is reassuring.
Next Steps
For now, avoid repeatedly checking or comparing the amount of semen after every ejaculation, as this can increase anxiety and make normal fluctuations seem abnormal. Give your body some time to return to its usual pattern. If the increased volume remains consistently unusual for a prolonged period, or you develop associated symptoms such as pain during ejaculation, blood in semen, urinary symptoms or persistent changes in sexual function, an in-person evaluation would be appropriate.

Health Tips
Maintain adequate hydration, regular physical activity, good sleep and a balanced lifestyle. Avoid prolonged sexual stimulation when it is causing discomfort or anxiety, and don't repeatedly measure semen volume because semen quantity naturally varies considerably between ejaculations depending on sexual frequency and other factors. Most importantly, an apparently larger ejaculate after a short period of medication use does not mean that your reproductive system has been permanently affected. Thank you
