Finasteride side-effects

2017-04-29 13:05:13
Hi, My dermatologist has prescribed finasteride 5mg tablets (dosage: once daily) for hair related problems. I want to know if it can have any implications on me or my husband, in case we have unprotected intercourse, and are NOT planning to have a baby. Thanks in advance.
