Does scalp psoriasis or seborrheic dermatitis hinder the effectiveness of finasteride

I developed seborrheic dermatitis and what I now believe is scalp psoriasis right before I began finasteride, and I am wondering if anyone knows if these conditions will hinder the finasteride from working.

Hi Coco,

Sounds like you need either a cream or medicated shampoo (antifungal) to help with this condition - definitely see a local doctor or dermatologist about your condition.

Hope you get the problem resolved soon and fingers crossed the finasteride will start to benefit you. I have been using finasteride for 3 months and already seen great results, so good luck.

All the best
Steve
