Can I take Propecia if my wife and I are starting a family?
Contact with the semen from a man being treated with Propecia is not a risk to the unborn child of a pregnant woman. Yes, you can take Propecia (Finasteride) if you and your wife are trying to conceive or if your wife is currently pregnant. However, women who are or may potentially be pregnant must not use PROPECIA and should not handle crushed or broken tablets of Propecia (Finasteride). However, tablets are coated and will prevent contact with the active ingredient during normal handling, provided that the tablets have not been broken or crushed.
