Hi Guys,
I haven't posted in awhile, but I've had Moderate to Good results over the past eight years combining minoxidil and finasteride in various forms. I've kept most of my hair and I'm confident it will continue so long as the regimen continues.
What worries me now is that I'm considering proposing to my girlfriend in the next few months, and we are definitely at the age where we'd like to have kids. But I'm flashing back to 1998 when I first tried getting scrips for finasteride and two doctors turned me down because I was young and because they warned of birth defects and other horrors if I ever got someone pregnant.
Can anyone comment on this? Has anyone quit finasteride for a year and conceived a healthy child? The half-life isn't more than a month, I don't think, so I don't see why you couldn't quit it before conception. But the thought worries me and I'd hate to think over the years I've jeopardized my ability to have a healthy child.
Thanks.
