FDA adds increased risk of High grade Prostate cancer to finasteride

You're just a "finasteride Hater"

I kid. We all know finasteride is awful. It hurts you mentally, physically, and financially. Then if it doesn't even work, you gain nothing but pain from it.

I've heard that you should inform your doctor if you're on a DHT inhibitor. If you are, then it will skew the numbers (whatever the "numbers" are for prostate cancer tests) and make it look like you don't have anything when you might actually have low-grade cancer. If you let it sit, then it becomes high-grade. Hence, then higher # of high-grade cancers from people taking finasteride/dutasteride

Don't know if that's the 100% truth or not, it's just what I heard.
