Is impregnation, while the male is on finasteride for hair loss, safe for the to be born child? what should be the strategy in the coming 9 months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Finasteride: Finasteride should not be ingested by pregnant women due to its potential effects on the developing fetus. A male cannot pass this risk to a female or her developing fetus through normal contact or sexual relations when taking Propecia or finasteride. As always, read and follow the supplied information and discuss any concerns with your obstetrician.
