Not everyone is affected by the side effects you are mentioning. If 100 % of men were experiencing them I doubt Dutasterid would still be such a popular drug for bph

Let me be clear: hormone suppression is not a "side effect" it is the effect. Ironically, the side effect is the hair growth.

Edit: systemic effect is not 0% even with topical, enters your bloodstream nonetheless. To respond to the guy marketing below (HN limiting replies).
