Senior Member SamSpade Posted January 11, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted January 11, 2013 Hey guys, I had a transplant surgery 6 months ago and have had great results. My progress so far. But I'm now working with my wife to have our first child and our doctor recommended going off finasteride. I'm not sure if it's had a negative effect on fertility but I'm not taking any chances. I've been off for almost 3 months. Does any one have any recommendations for alternate natural pills they've taken for keeping the hair in? I'm using rogaine foam twice daily, just trying to keep as much in the crown as possible.

Senior Member Bobilero Posted January 11, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted January 11, 2013 You could try Saw Palmetto. Its a natural herb considered a milder alternative to finasteride with additional health benefits. Native americans used to use it and you dont see too many bald ones!! It can lower DHT also so may have side effects. Although i have not seen too much ancedotle evidence it causes major side effects like finasteride does.
