Impotency risks in Topical Minoxidil 5%?
Hello doctors,
I am 30years old (unmarried), Have undergone my HT in 2019dec. Was taking Finestride 0.5mg each day for first 6months as prescribed by my surgeon, then slowly tapered it down . Currently taking some multi vitamin tablets, finestride gel(topical) & Minoxidil topical 5%.
I am a biit worried about slight signs of decreased male libido in me.
Please let me know whether, do I have risks of infertility because of my topical application of both Finestride gel as well as minoxidil 5% solution?? is it good to continue them? Should I discontinue them sooner?!
Thanks in advance 🙏
