Wow, I stumbled across a link that suggests that finasteride (a.k.a. Propecia or Proscar) can inhibit the body's ability to increase EPO production (and thereby hematocrit production) in response to various known stressors -- the one of interest for most of us being apnea.
I am currently taking Propecia (the things people will admit in public!). Now I've gotta decide whether I'd rather have the hair or the improvement in static apnea times.
At any rate, here's the link if anyone is interested.
