An interesting review published a couple years ago outlining the potential downsides of finasteride and dutasteride use. The full text is available.

I'm an 18 month user of Propecia and continue to use it. Recently, I've been contemplating a switch to dutasteride. Not trying to fear monger, just sharing some of the potential pitfalls of these drugs I recently learned about that 2 doctors didn't bother discussing with me, despite my asking. I figure most prescribing doctors don't know the extent or are just flat unaware.
