new member and nervous

[lancerevo]

Hi all mark here.
Went to a hair clinic about my crown to be told its male pattern baldness.
id like to try the meds he mentioned (finasteride and minoxidil iirc)
Im just nervous about possible sides and long lasting effects.
Am i over reacting ?

Any advice is appreciated
Mark

Yes. There are no permanent sides of finasteride which has been shown by every study. minoxidil is about as harmless as a medication can be also
