Is This True That Hair Loss Treatment May Lead To Male Infertility?

Hi,
Am 28 years old male. I am suffering severe hair loss for the past two years. My doctor asked me to use Morr-f solution. Thought I did not get hair growth, hair loss is under control somehow.
Some of my friends say that hair loss treatment may lead to male infertility. Is this true?

Welcome to the forum.
One of the 2 components is finasteride, which blocks the formation of active formation of male hormone.
Its known side effects are decrease male sexual function and loss of desire.
Male infertility is not described as a side effect, but in theory it can cause.
Hope this helps,
sincerely
