Male balding pattern.hair loss for 3-4 yrs. tried homeopathy 4 around a year.left it as not sure of the results. is using finpecia tablets beneficial?

Finesteride: Finesteride is not indicated in women. It is a strong teratogen (causes birth defects) and does not have a large amount of data in women. Spironolactone may be an option with a similar principal.
