Using finasteride with TIP extends time off period for prostate cancer patients.
research Finasteride and Male Breast Cancer: Does the MHRA Report Show a Link?
No definitive link between finasteride and male breast cancer, but further research is needed.
research Prolongation of off-cycle interval by finasteride is not associated with survival improvement in intermittent androgen deprivation therapy in LNCaP tumor model
Finasteride doesn't improve survival in LNCaP tumor model during off-cycle of therapy.
research HPLC Profiling and Insilco studies of Chochurus olitoris (Jute) Leave Fractions against Steroid 5α-Reductase 2 (SRD5α2)
Jute leaves may help reduce DHT levels, potentially aiding in conditions like hair loss and prostate issues.

Gene variation affects prostate issues and hair loss.
research The Rationale for Inhibiting 5α-Reductase Isoenzymes in the Prevention and Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Inhibiting 5α-reductase can help reduce prostate cancer risk and improve treatment.
research Pharmacological therapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia/lower urinary tract symptoms: an overview for the practising clinician
Medications have become the main treatment for enlarged prostate symptoms, replacing surgery and watchful waiting.
research 5α‐Reductase Isozymes and Androgen Actions in the Prostate
5α‐reductase isozymes are crucial for prostate development and health, and targeting them can help prevent and treat prostate issues.
research Prostate cancer incidence among finasteride and alpha-blocker users in the Finnish Prostate Cancer Screening Trial
Finasteride might lower the risk of low-grade prostate cancer but not high-grade cancer, while alpha-blockers might reduce high-grade cancer risk.
research New 5?-reductase inhibitors: In vitro and in vivo effects
Four new compounds were more effective than finasteride in treating prostate issues and hair loss, with one being 100 times more active and safe for use.
research Use of Finasteride in the Treatment of Men With Androgenetic Alopecia (Male Pattern Hair Loss)
Finasteride effectively improves hair growth and slows hair loss in men with male pattern baldness.
research Is COVID-19 a risk factor for progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia and exacerbation of its related symptoms?: a systematic review
COVID-19 might worsen symptoms and progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia, possibly due to inflammation and metabolic disturbances in the prostate gland. More research is needed to confirm this.
research 5α‐Reductase inhibitors and prostatic disease
5α-Reductase inhibitors can help treat hair loss, acne, and prostate issues by reducing DHT levels.
research Long-term dutasteride therapy in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia alters glucose and lipid profiles and increases severity of erectile dysfunction
Long-term use of dutasteride for enlarged prostate may worsen blood sugar, cholesterol, and erectile dysfunction.
research The antiandrogenic effect of finasteride against a mutant androgen receptor
Finasteride may improve prostate cancer treatment outcomes.
research Effect of Saw Palmetto Supplements on Androgen-Sensitive LNCaP Human Prostate Cancer Cell Number and Syrian Hamster Flank Organ Growth
Saw palmetto supplements may reduce prostate cancer cell growth without being toxic.
research Should Finasteride Be Routinely Given Preoperatively for TURP?
Finasteride may reduce bleeding after TURP, but more research needed.
