Regarding Finasteride

2017-11-29 15:26:20
I'm suffering from androgenetic alopecia and i am taking Finasteride from last 10 days. I have got to know that there are so many side effects and now i am really afraid to take Finasteride. So please advise is there any alternate for this medicine or is it ok to take this medicine. If not please guide how to tackle these side effects.
