Can I talk about sexual side effects if my doctor is a woman?

/by William Rassman, M.D./0 /

My doctor is a woman and I’m 18 years old. If i ever experience sides  from finasteride, i’ll feel weird to ask my doctor about it. Does it matter about what gender doctor is? I just feel more comfortable in talking to a guy about sides if they ever show up.

Women doctors are just doctors and they often speak about sexual problems with male patients without embarrassment. Focus on your needs, not the sex of your doctor.
