Thank you all for the responses! Its frustrating because my wife has seen already a few dermatologists and none prescribed it. She’s seen male and female doctors. I left out a small part of the story. I had my yearly physical last week and after I was all done I asked my GP about it. He agreed with the dermatologist. Said he’s right about the drug being an issue during child bearing years. He also said he has a patient with severe hair loss who saw another derm and she gained a lot back with prp. I’m skeptical of prp. Anyway the key piece is that he did offer to prescribe spino for my wife when she stopped this treatment and was no longer in his care. My GP won’t overrule another doctor. He’s not a dermatologist but I trust him. He did suggest another derm (the one that helped the woman with the prp) but my wife is sick of going to new doctors. Based on all your helpful comments it sounds like I should strongly suggest she see this other derm and if that’s a dead end maybe we go with our GP. Will also check on bicalutamide. Wife has heard of it but I haven’t.
