Abstract in brief
- The study highlights that men who use 5-reductase inhibitors (5ARIs) for treating androgenic alopecia may experience persistent sexual, psychological, and vascular side effects even after stopping the medication, with significant findings from penile ultrasound showing vascular abnormalities.
- Men in the 5ARI group reported lower erectile function scores, higher prostate symptom scores, and increased depressive symptoms compared to controls, with some experiencing severe outcomes like suicide.
- Overall, the research suggests that 5ARIs could cause long-lasting genitourinary, psychological, and vascular changes, emphasizing the need for careful consideration of these potential risks when treating androgenic alopecia with these drugs.
