Tomorrow I’m starting finasteride. I’m 19 and have quite the receding hairline. Here are some direct shots of hairline.

It’s bad but I can still pull of full head of hair as seen here

What do u think finasteride will do for me 1 year from now as well as 3 years and 5 years out. Thanks. Been receding since 17 btw. No much family history of balding either

Eh IMO don't worry about it so much. I've been on finasteride for close to 8 years. It saved my hair, but at what cost? For me, nothing.

I always figured someday I would have to pay the price, close out the books. Not so, My hair still looks exactly like it did on that fateful day I started taking finasteride.

No promises for you but based on the scientific studies, I think you're fine

If it works as intended I wouldn't expect much, but maintenance is what you are after.

Your hair is already thick as f*** and it won't do much for the ol hairline, but preserve what you have left longer.

You will probably start shedding hair but you have a lot to shed. It shouldn't become noticeable at any point.

Worst scenario is you become dickless, depressed, your ballls perma ache and you grow a pair of tits for the rest of your life but I'm told that's very rare.

Think of it this way, you are playing Russian roulette, but the gun has 100 chambers and only one 1 bullet.

This is why I personally won't touch the sh*t
