Best places to order topical Finasteride? Also, does it cause depression or anxiety?


Recommended Posts

I am currently using the Rogain foam 5% and have been for several years. I am wondering if anyone has any experience with the topical Finasteride? Can you use that in combination with Rogain? I have a history of depression so I am not wanting to take the oral finasteride, wondering if anyone knows if it causes that side effect if used topically? Thanks guys.

ask your prescribing doctor his thoughts. 

If you want a really comprehensive answer, go to a psychiatrist and ask.

How old are you ? Where are you located ? It caused me issues but thankfully now all is over . It is very individual but majority of people are fine on it . If you decide to go on Finasteride, it would wise to have your hormones tested to have a baseline (Total T , E2 , DHT , SHBG , Thyroid and Adrenals) .  You can catch red flags(if there are any) and God forbid in case you have lasting issues you know what were your levels  . In that dreaded case at least you won't fly .
