I've been taking finasteride for 1 month. Can I take paracetamol, flu medicines when I feel sick? Will finasteride still work?

Hello, It is important to take the medicine at the same time everyday. If you are not happy and want to stop taking it, the side effects will not remain.

Hello, Instead of taking finasteride you can use saw palmetto - biotin and multivitamin daily. Also prp treatment every 2-3 months would be very effective

There are many options including peptides, and HCG as well as clomid/arimidex. I suggest you see an expert for internal workup, we do this frequently in our practice. Best, Dr. Emer.
