Hello-
finasteride/finax belongs to a drug class called 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, which affect hormone levels and reduce male hormone activity, occasionally causing reproductive side effects like: impotence/erectile dysfunction (reversed with discontinuation of medication).
You need to stop it immediately, and need to switch to ayurveda for recovery.

Hi ,
this treatment is the usual medications prescibed by Dermatologist. Finax is finasteride and long term usage can result is loss of libido , not safe for long term use. Regain is minoxidil 5% can be used as local application. But it is life long,
either homeopathic treatment will help in preventing further hair loss or Mesotherapy can help in rejuvenating the thin follicles.

Boil dried amla in coconut oil till the oil turns black in color. Massage your scalp with this oil. This is an effective and very easy home remedy to check hair loss.
There are also other ways where we can include amla in our hair care routine.
• Use amla and shikakai powder than you can buy in ayurvedic stores. Mix them both and make a paste. Apply this to your hair. Leave it on for a few minutes and wash off after a few minutes.
Caution: If you have dry hair, skip the shikakai.

If the medication is taken by yourself then we can think about miscarriage and abnormality in the baby. Since its done by the husband. There is no worries but still you can do nt scan @ 11 weeks to 13 week s+ 6 days to rule out anomalies. Don't terminate the baby without confirming.
