Thought this might be worth mentioning since you are taking it. - Artificially low levels of DHT in the body could cause some unwanted conditions. DHT is an antagonist of estrogen. Men’s bodies also produce the female hormone estrogen in the adrenal glands, although this is just one-tenth of the estrogen that premenopausal women produce in their ovaries. By reducing DHT with drugs, a man’s protection from the effects of estrogen may also be reduced. This could result in gynecomastia.
So maybe keep an extra eye out for any signs of gyno. |
i dont suffer from gyno. studies i have read about finasteride have basically halted any further loss. it has not caused re-growth of hair. there are other topical products which cause re-growth.
