Propecia (Finasteride) is not indicated for use by women, as it is in the FDA pregnancy category X. This means that it is known to cause birth defects in unborn children. Women who are pregnant, or are planning to become pregnant in the future, must not handle crushed or broken Propecia (Finasteride) tablets as the medication could be absorbed through the skin.

Propecia (Finasteride) may also pass into the semen of men, but a pregnant woman's contact with the semen of a man taking Propecia (Finasteride) is not an issue for concern.

Propecia (Finasteride) has been linked with depression, and has also caused reductions in allopregnanolone, a potent, endogenous positive modulator of the GABA-A receptor, in very large doses in rodent studies.

Some things to keep in mind:

  • Propecia (Finasteride) (and other products containing finasteride) causes a rise in testosterone levels, because testosterone that would normally be converted into DHT remains testosterone. Continual high levels of testosterone in the body could possibly have negative side effects
  • Artificially low levels of DHT in the body could cause some unwanted conditions. DHT is an antagonist of estrogen. Men’s bodies also produce the female hormone estrogen in the adrenal glands, although this is just one-tenth of the estrogen that premenopausal women produce in their ovaries. By reducing DHT with drugs, a man’s protection from the effects of estrogen may also be reduced. This could result in gynecomastia.

This may not a complete list of side effects and others may occur. Check with your doctor or pharmacist for more information, or should you experience any other effects not listed here.
