Wow.. I’m on this board for 10 minutes and I get some nobody calling me an idiot because he didn’t like my post....which IS based on fact...there have been NO long term studies done on propecia and it’s effects on the human body....look it up! Of course we need to define ‘long term’...

That's ok KiLLuMiNaTi, I'm used to guys like that. They're so entrenched in their own opinions that they don't want to even listen to someone with another point of view. No problem here...no skin off my back.

I'm not about to get into some ridiculous argument about the benifits of propecia. If it works for you...GREAT!!! Man, be happy!! If it doesn't work for others....well then it doesn't. What's the problem? It didn't work for me and caused me nothing but grief with side effects. I'm not saying...

Yes it has been out for 20 years...but most of the people who initially took it no longer do, becuse it stopped working for them. That is the issue really. Propecia is a short term solution for some people. That is about as good as it gets.

Hello PinkFloyd, The reason you are not getting any answers is because there is no one way to answer your questions really. Everybody is different and drugs react differently to each person. I took Propecia for a year and shed the entire time I was on it. I was extremely depressed about it...

There is no way to tell if you are going to shed and the only way to really avoid it is not to take the drugs in the first place. If you really can't handle a shed...then I would say don't take the drugs. You don't know if you will shed....but what happens if you do? Then you're stuck.

By shedding do you mean ALL shedding or are you talking about shedding you had due to the use of the drugs you mentioned. Shedding is normal and part of the hair cycle, and keeps your hair healthy. To have no shedding at all is not normal. Just curious...

I think that your Dr. may have a point. There have been no long term studies done with propecia. The drug has not been around long enough. You are very young and you would have to take it for the rest of your life for it to continue working (if it works for you at all). Also...it is well...
