Finasteride and Dutasteride do not cause depression or "Post Finasteride Syndrome," with concerns often linked to the nocebo effect and preexisting mental health issues. The EU is unlikely to ban these drugs, but access may become more restricted due to ongoing debates.

High estradiol levels may contribute to erectile dysfunction (ED) and can be addressed with lifestyle changes or medication. It's important to consult a medical professional for treatment options.

Finasteride and dutasteride can affect sexual function, cognition, and mood. Alternatives like minoxidil, pyrilutamide, and alfatradiol have varied effectiveness and side effects.

Balancing estradiol (e2) levels may alleviate post-finasteride syndrome (PFS) symptoms. Hormone tests, including testosterone and e2, are recommended for those experiencing PFS.

Hair loss is linked to a higher rate of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), OCD, and depression. Finasteride and dutasteride are not linked to increased suicidal risk, though some users report mental health side effects.

A medical student experienced hair loss slowing with Finasteride but developed severe, treatment-resistant insomnia. They tried various medications with little effect, suspecting Post-Finasteride Syndrome, and others suggested the insomnia might be linked to Finasteride's impact on neurosteroids.
