I spoke with our patient today about minoxidil and finasteride. He mentioned using finasteride for a few years but lost interest in sex altogether. He said he was one of the 2% that got sides. I haven't looked at the stats on that, but I would say in speaking with Dr. Cole's patients at least 30% claim side effects from finasteride and dutasteride. Certainly not a study, just an observation. Keep in mind that most men's sex drive and performance varies throughout the year/years. So in some cases finasteride users could be blaming finasteride for a temporary down cycle.
