Bone Density Is Normal in Male Rats Treated with Finasteride

The study investigated the effect of finasteride, a drug used to treat hair loss, on bone density in male rats. The researchers found that bone density was normal in male rats treated with finasteride, and there were no significant differences in bone mineral density between the finasteride-treated rats and the control group. The study suggests that selective deficiency of DHT does not have a substantial adverse effect on bone in male rats.
