Pregnancy: Dutasteride is contraindicated for use by women. Dutasteride has not been studied in women because pre-clinical data suggests that the suppression of circulating levels of dihydrotestosterone may inhibit the development of the external genital organs in a male foetus carried by a woman exposed to dutasteride.
Breastfeeding: It is not known whether dutasteride is excreted in human milk.
Fertility: Dutasteride has been reported to affect semen characteristics (reduction in sperm count, semen volume, and sperm motility) in healthy men. The possibility of reduced male fertility cannot be excluded.
