Benji,

It is regrettable that you experienced sexual side effects from topical dutasteride and finasteride. However, no drug is perfect and I don't claim otherwise. Every drug presents a profile of desired and undesirable effects; it is how the balance tips in one direction or the other that occurs in each particular patient that determines whether it is worthwhile. It is important to note that GSk admits in its information for healthcare professionals statement that Avodart(R)--a fully FDA-approved oral version of dutasteride--has detectable side effects (including sexual dysfunction) in many patients taking it and significant sexual side effects in 4.7% of patients (although it does decline to 1% after 12 months, if one can tolerate the waiting time). Is this unusual? Should Avodart (and our topical preparation) be taken off the market? No. Because ALL drugs have risk/benefits. If you are looking for a perfect drug for hair loss, or hypertension, or cholesterol, or whatever--it just doesn't exist. I wish I could advise you of a better solution now. Hopefully, in the future a nonpharmaceutical treatment for hair loss will make this discussion unnecessary, such as hair cloning.
