Can consumption of finax (finasteride) 1 mg cause impotence or loss of libido or both? I expect an answer from a dermatologist. I have read this on internet and I have been prescribed the medicine for alopecia.

It can cause loss of libido which is reversible after the tablet is stopped and its not necessary that all patients will have these side effects ,many patients are using finasteride for 1 year also without any side effects.
