Avodart (dutasteride) "It has been about three weeks now. I use to have to go every two hours. That has now doubled four. Definite decrease in sex drive. That is the trade-off."

"Wouldn’t recommend dutasteride as it effects sex response and this effect remains with me after stopping the drug. Pity my prescriber didn’t mention this."
