Question

Hi..i am 25 years old & suffering from male pattern baldness. My doctor prescribe me finasteride 1mg daily. But i don't want to reduce my testosterone level in my body so can i take some natural testosterone boosters like Aswagandha, Shatavari, Safed Mushli and Konch Beej with finasteride 1mg??

You'll want to speak to your doctor as to what is safe for you and to review carefully all the facts.  Finasteride does not refuce testosterone levels but rather dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It is possible that a male using testosterone boosters will experience worsening hair loss. Please see your specialist for review.

Finasteride will not necessarily lower your testosterone but if you take testosterone you will lose hair more rapidly
