A man is experiencing hair thinning and is hesitant to use finasteride due to concerns about side effects, despite its effectiveness when combined with minoxidil.

25 upvotes 2 years ago

Dutasteride at 0.5mg daily has a similar side effect profile to Finasteride, but at higher doses, it may increase the risk of sexual side effects.
