Concern about Topical Finasteride

This is one thing that concerns me about finasteride but also about topical finasteride. I’ve long considered topical finasteride as a safer alternative to finasteride, but then I think, ‘what if it rubs off onto a partner who i don’t yet know is pregnant’ or to someone else via furniture, pillow cases etc. I’d be very concerned about harming anyone else…

The timing of the application may solve it. For example, if you don’t have a partner, apply at night and wash it off in the morning. IF you have a pregnant partner, apply it when you go to work and wash it off when you come home.
