Hello there. I am Ajay. I am suffering with male pattern baldness. Recently I had consulted a dermatologist regarding my hair fall issue. She prescribed "FOLRIDE" FINASTERIDE TABLETS 1 mg" but many people are saying that use of these finasteride tablets will have serious side effects on loss of sexual drive and other things and also if I stop taking these drugs did I loose my hair at an increasing rate? Please suggest me should I use these drugs without any fear.
