Propecia - 'Sperm damage passed to children'

[marty1133]

Reading the following article entitled 'Sperm damage passed to children' I have become concerned about taking my propecia. (Link below)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/7252165.stm

Since propecia or generic finpecia is a hormone-disrupting drug could it have the same effect on damaging or alter genes in the sperm that could affect children as was described in this article ? Me a my wife are thinking of starting a family in the next couple of years,

Any thoughts would be welcome................

People will disagree with me but dont go on it mate. U want to start a family so dont touch the stuff at the mo.

I stopped propecia due to possible gyno and I think definate future sperm damage. You could see how watery it made my semen, it was literally see through. I am now trying my luck with topicals as I just really dnt wanna f*** with that!
