Women must NOT USE Propecia
Start
Both Propecia and Avodart are not recommended for use by women or children.
It’s been found that these drugs can cause birth defects. More specifically, these birth defects may occur when large amounts of the drug are absorbed into the body during the period of fetal development.
Physicians advise pregnant women to not handle Propecia tablets, as this may harm male fetuses. But as of yet, there has not been a single reported case of birth defects caused by handling these tablets.
Furthermore, there’s also no evidence that pregnant women exposed to the semen of Propecia or Avodart patients will risk any birth defects.
Propecia and Avodart are also not advisable for men with liver disease or prostate cancer.
