Will Finasteride Cause My Facial Hair to Stop Developing?
As a young man I value my hair very much, both scalp and facial hair. My facial hair hasn’t yet become a full out beard but I see new hairs sprouting on my face soon after every shave, my question is will the use of Finasteride cause my facial hair to stop thickening and developing into a full beard? I would hope that I wouldn’t need to choose between my facial hair and scalp hair but frankly the scalp would win every time.
Well, I’ve never gotten a report about Propecia-related problems with facial hair development from a patient. With that said, anything is possible, but if it did happen to you, you could (I suspect) stop the drug and get the full beard growth return. I don’t know how young of a man you are, but some men just do not grow full facial hair due to genetics, unrelated to any medication they may or may not take.
I’m 26, and I take finasterid since I became 18, and my beard and my body hair didn’t changed too much since then.
I’m pretty convinced that finasterid is the reason, all men except me in my family have a full-beard.
I also have a brother who looks a lot like me(he is being bald too, but don’t take finasterid).
Anyway, I’ll continue to use finasterid because I think my hair is more important than my beard.
