risk vs beneift
I've been taking finasteride for almost 20 years for BPH. Works well, have no problem urinating. There were some sexual side-effects at the beginning but they passed years ago. PSA test results are usually the same - 1.0.

A positive side-effect is it stops male pattern hair loss, not that I've ever had a problem with that.
