Hey guys, I've been experiencing thinning etc. for 3 years now and been on forums etc. and informed myself pretty well. I haven't really done much except laser treatment,sporadic Tricomin,Nizoral , Revivogen and some Revita.

Finasteride seems to be like the most effecitve option that's for sure but I'm kinda concerned because of potential long term side effects. Therefore I had a question----does anybody know how male to female transsexuals who take heavy oral antiandrogens combined with female hormones fare through their lives?I searched the web and couldn't find much about it. But say if they reached normal life expectancy without any potential specific diseases one could most likely conclude that taking something like finasteride for hair loss would most likely not be that bad.

There's a discussion here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hormone_re ... ne_effects

Wikipedia is not always the most reliable of sources but it is a good place to start!

thanks pondle...that been pretty informative already although tends to be a little more general and not that specific.


No serious ailments been reported in their--the linke to depression is pretty interesting and most likely a result of less allopregnanolone.
