So I have been on this medication about 5 months now, haven't noticed any real positive impact on the hairline, but I have noticed my energy and sex drive is a bit reduced, and I am generally a bit more tired than normal. I'd like to consider starting to work out more, but I was worried about if this would have some kind of negative impact on what the medication is supposed to be doing? Like increasing testosterone due to working out and such. I don't have a lot of knowledge on the subject and figured i'd ask.
Is Exercising Something That Will Impact finasteride Usage?

No, the temporary minor boost in Testosterone when working out is nothing that will interfere with the way that finasteride works, id actually recommend consistently working out while on these meds. Personally, id recommend an overall healthier lifestyle when taking finasteride, but i cant even take my own advice in that aspect so i shouldnt really preach it lol. But no, in regards to your concern it will not effect anything. Also, give it another 7 months to gauge its effects on your hair aesthetics
Yeah I have no intention on quitting it anytime soon, just trying to see if I should be making life changes to try and aid my general well being while holding out 
I just feel really sapped in general, my new workplace has a gym on site i'd like to start using, just don't want to shoot myself in the foot.
