Hi, I am using follihair and finasteride tablets for my hair treatment. For past 3 months I am observing some enlargement in my nipple and chest area. How can I confirm if this is due to gynecomastia? Ps: I am not overweight or obese.

Hi lybrate-user, finasteride is an anti androgenic drug. In research, it was found that, few patients can develop gynecomastia due to this. You need to stop it and take medicines to reverse this as soon as possible. For hairs, we can start alternative treatment.
