Senior Member Rick055 Posted November 12, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted November 12, 2008 There was a study which stated finasteride reduced the risk of prostate cancer but increased (very slightly) the risk of more aggressive tumors in men who did develop cancer. That said, I remember a doctor posting something here to the effect that there was another study which refuted that part, and suggested it was the appearance of the tumors which looked more aggressive relative to the rest of the prostate as finasteride had done such a good job at keeping the remainder of the prostate from being hyperplasic. Said another way, the tumors only appeared more aggressive. 1.25 mg finasteride EOD Rogaine Foam 5% QD am Kirkland minoxidil 5% QD pm Nizoral Q2W American Crew Revitalize Shampoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
