With all do respect i really think that this statement is pure bullshit. Besides the fact that nobody can actually prove it just like i can't prove also what i'm saying but also i really think that everybody gets sides, to some extent, even if they are minimum and acceptable for most, even if for some sooner or later and nobody can actually prove especially after a prolonged use that finasteride is causing something or not, it could actually be f*****g the natural process of aging, or your genes, or not, or finasteride, or not and we could keep it this way until we die.
I personally just think that for the majority their bodies adapt and they can actually function "normally" without 70% or even more lack of DHT but nobody knows how their lives or health would have been without taking the pill. Once you take it, you take it and just move on, if something happens it can be the pill or maybe because you got old, it would be actually impossible to know after a couple of years of use, even doctors are amazed of what some people go through because of some drugs and have no explanation or solution and blame it on whatever they can, it's impossible and it's best to keep your mind open because you could be in for a lot of surprises, better be prepared for them at least...
We need to evolve more guys, so we can have a better understanding about a lot of things, as sad and vague as it sound, unfortunately is the truth and i personally always preferred it instead of the most sophisticated and comforting lie...
