Cardio while on Finasteride?

Question

PLEASE READ Hi so I used to run and play a lot of tennis but now I'm on finasteride I'm worried that if I go for run or play tennis it will increase the dht And the finasteride will lose effectiveness I know it sounds weird but I'm worried. Thanks

You are safe to exercise as much as you want without it having any impact on your DHT & your hair loss. Exercising will only improve your overall health.

I know this concept is seen everywhere but there is no evidence for what you have just stated. If anything, running and tennis and exercise in general will improve your chances to be healthy and live longer to enjoy your hair and life.

There is no connection between taking the drug finasteride and your abilities to exercise or stress your phyisical limits
