Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for query .

You had taken Fenasteride for 2 days and had sexual issues hence stopped it and now facing problem of Erectile Dysfunction .

Fenasteride if taken for long period is known to have sexual side effects but it is unlikely that your Ed was due to Fenasteride as you have taken it only for 2 days .

Wait for a week and if problem persists may consult qualified Urologist .
