Anxiety issues due to Finastride
Hi
My doctor prescribed me Minodoxil 5pc + Finastride 0.1 for androgenic alopecia.
Been using for 3-4 years.
I have been experiencing very high anxiety for last 2 years.
Had already shown to my psychiatrist and continued his medicines for 6 months. But the problem reoccurred.
Now hadn't told him about Finastride usage as I didn't feel it was important. Now i fell on the study that it's one of the side-effects besides low libido.
Please let me know if I can switch from Minodoxil+ F to just Minodoxil.
