Hello Doctor. I was wondering as Propecia affects male hormones, would taking the medication when you are 18 prevent anything such as facial hair growing and other changes that happen as you grow older?
DHT is partly responsible for growing beard hair and blocking DHT might slow it down. For boys younger than 18, it is not recommended.
