Endocrinologist Professor Michael Irwig shares his experiences seeing patients with persistent side effects from finasteride, a drug marketed to young men for male pattern baldness.
Post-Finasteride Syndrome is the current term for a rare syndrome of devastating physical, neurological, and sexual side effects that persist and progress after stopping finasteride. The condition occurs primarily in younger men who have taken the drug to treat hair loss. There is currently no effective treatment for this disease.
PFS has a disastrous impact on patients, their families, and their friends. It often causes disability, isolation, and suicide. Every person is valuable, and everyone deserves to make a fully informed choice with their health.
More research into Post-Finasteride Syndrome is desperately needed. Learn more about and support important new scientific research here: https://pfsnetwork.org/donate
