a little bit confused...some of articles says that a men with male pattern baldness have much more dht than a normal person...some of articles says that follicles of man with male pattern baldness are sensitive with dht....what to think?

Its the follicles sensitivity that counts you could have the lowest levels of DHT possible and still go bald, or conversley you could be a a bodybuilder injecting the stuff into yourself day and night and still keep your hair. It all depends on your genetics.

The old bald guys have more Test/DHT theory is just an old myth, there are millions of examples of unmasculine bald guys.

another confusion:)...for how many time is propecia available in USA and worldwide? seems from 98...that's why most of people didn't know if this is working for let's say 15-20 years....because it wasn't that enough time to test it...Am i right?

Even today its not that widely known about the average member of the public would'nt have a clue about it. And it does'nt work foe everyone but for some it does, there would have been trials back in the late 80's / early 90's. Before it was released. I think I heard someone on here claim to have started using it in 92.

i've heard many that the drug is working for 99% of people who's taking it, but if you're balding is so severe...the drug can not work...is logical...i've seen people at 21 almost completely bald like nw5...so how can a drug work in that case?is a war between dht , genes and propecia...or maybe if you start early in your 20's also could have a benefit from it...at 40's is so hard to belive that you can regain some hair...this is how it works I think...

Yeah for me its the follicles - I mean you can get hair from the back of your head transplanted to your receded hairline and they will stay there regardless of your 'unbalanced' hormones, how much you masturbate, how much stress you are under, how under or overactive your thyroid is .... etc etc

the cause of male pattern baldness is definitively defective hair follicles. everything else exacerbates these follicles.
