Hair Fall Mediacation leading Impotency

2018-06-16 21:10:49
I am 26 year old male and suffering male pattern baldness(androgenic alopecia) and my doctor has prescribed me every morning Dutaone 0.5 mg tablet (Dutasteride 0.5 MG) and every night Morr F 10% (Finasteride 0.1 %W/V +Minoxidil 10 %). I read about the side effects indicating Impotency and prostate cancer probabilities. Please tell 1. Is it safe to have Dutasteride and finasteride both on daily basis? 2. Seriousness of impotency? 3. Is impotency caused by medication reversible? 1000's Thank U

You are suffering from androgenic alopecia which is also called as pattern baldness. The hairs start reducing in density at the crown (top) and also the hairline starts receeding  from the front. This is usually progressive throughout life unless treated. It is usually accompanied by severe dandruff which we call seborrhoea. The FDA approved treatment for this condition is the best. No oil or cream will magically work because the hairs are getting miniaturised  and eventually disappearing due to the hormonal effects of DHT on the hair roots. Please call me or  contact me with photos using online consult option for proper examination and treatment. Do not start treatment without consulting. I can give guidance and then you can continue treatment on your own.,,
