Best Answer

Finax (finasteride) has the potental to cause birth defects only if a pregnant woman comes in contact with it.

I.e takes a tablet or touches a broken tablet.

not if a female becomes pregnant to a male who is taking finasteride. However many men decide to discontinue taking the medication whilst trying for a baby.

Is The propecia bad for health?

Finasteride, marketed as Proscar, Propecia, Fincar, Finpecia, Finax, Finast,Finara, Finalo, Prosteride, Gefina, Appecia, Finasterid IVAX, and Finasterid Alternova, is a synthetic antiandrogen (that is, it acts in opposition to the male hormone testosterone). It is currently approved for treatment of Prostate cancer, Benign prostatic hyperplasia and Hair loss in males, which is commonly due to overproduction of testosterone. Possible side effects include impotence, problems getting and maintaining an erection, reduced sperm count and other sexual problems. It is also known to cause birth defects in male children -- even in tiny amounts -- specifically by interfering with proper development of male genitalia. Great care should be taken to keep it away from women who may become pregnant, even to the extent of not cutting pills in half, etc. in the same house. It is up to the user to decide whether use of Propecia and other Finasteride drugs is worth the risk of possible side effects, especially since its use for hair growth is of limited value and simply a matter of vanity.
