Hi, I am a healthy 43 year old man who has been taking Propecia for over 10 years now with no side effects. My hair looks great and my daily dose is 1mg. Lately I have been experiencing some anxiety I would like to quit taking it for a little while to see if that could be the cause. If I quit for a couple of months and then resume the treatment back, will I see any hair loss ? Just need to make sure that the medication is not increasing my anxiety as I have had it for a few years now. THANKS !
