Brief Answer:
Wait for some time

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
welcome to Healthcare magic,
You have taken tablet Finax 1mg which contains finesteride. Sexual adverse effects occur at the rates of 2.1% to 3.8%, erectile dysfunction (ED) being the commonest followed by ejaculatory dysfunction and loss of libido.
These effects occurred early in the therapy and returned to normal on stopping or over a time on continuous use of the drug.
Just wait for some time, If there is Loss of libido is due to finestride it will revert automatically.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks
