Link between Lexapro and Finasteride?

anthonyc44
I started taking finasteride and lexapro both on the same day, being prescribed both the same day. Is there a link? My hair has gotten extremely worse and it's only been 3 weeks. I'm not sure if it's the hormones changing from both medicines or just an initial shed from finasteride.
