Question about finasteride in women
I have a questions about finasteride. Is it something I could add to help with my balding? I already take 100mg of spironolactone daily. I have gone on/off spiro afew times d/t having kids but now haver had a hysterectomy so do not have to worry about any teratogenic concerns.
Finasteride has been shown to work on some women but because of its unpredictable action, most doctors don’t prescribe it for women. It works better when women have gone through menopause. For women who can have children, as you seem to understand, the impact on the baby in pregnancy can produce abnormal sex differentiation.
