A member asked:
My dad is 85 years old and has been bald for 50 years but now he is growing black fuzzy hair, why is this??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
He may be taking finesteride for BPH. Enter all meds he is taking into Drugs.com and see if growing fuzz is a side effect of any. Then do an interaction check with all of them. Have him discuss with Dr.
