A member asked:
Does proscar (finasteride) cause moobs if so if you stop taking it will the moobs go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: It is a possible side effect, especially if the guy is obese as he has higher estrogen levels to begin with. Once moobs form, they're tough to get rid of.
