Brief Answer:
I think you should not take risk

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using healthcaremagic.

The decision to use a medication is made after considering all pros and cons of the particular medication. Since you are already suffering with premature ejaculation it is better not to take risk with finasteride.

There is no guarantee that finasteride will help in hair growth although it poses more risk of erectile dysfunction and premature ejaculation.

Ask your dermatologst to prescribe something else for the hair growth. In my iew that will be more appropriate decision for your sexual health.
Hope I am able to answer your concerns.
If you have any further query, I would be glad to help you.
