Is It Common For Fine To Cause Change In Body Odor And Soreness In The Nipples?
Hi I am 22 and take 1 mg of Fine sterile daily. I have been for 3 months now. I notice my body odor has changed and my nipples are soar. Have you heard of this. Also, should I cut the pill in half ? Will that help reduce side effects? And taking 50 % of the dosage effect the results of saving my hair.

Hi,
Fine (Finasteride) 1mg is used for treatment of hair loss / male-pattern baldness (To date, Food and Drug Administration–approved for men). It can cause some swelling or tenderness in breasts but nipple soreness or change in body odor -not known. Finasteride 1 mg is the optimal dose for the treatment of men with 'Male Pattern Hair Loss'.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Tushar Kanti Biswas, Internal Medicine Specialist
