Take risks with finasteride and you could be rewarded with nice thick hair.
But the irreversible sides are real. Rare but real.

Definitely real, you'd be a fool to ignore them. Tell the thousands of people that have permanent sides that it's all phychological, I'm sure they could only wish that were the case.
People need to quit being ignorant about the possiblity of having permanent side effects from Finasteride. Although they are rare, it's possible.

In saying you'd be a fool to ignore them, what is someone to do then, if he is losing his hair rapidly?
It's either try something unproven or go with finasteride and risk it. And when going for finasteride it'd be better to keep side effects out of your mind (ie ignoring them) than go looking for them all the time and foster paranoia.
And minoxidil is the only other proven thing, but most of the time doesn't allow people to keep their hair, usualyl just an "initial offset of growth" according to bryan.
And are there really "thousands" of people with permanent sides?
If so we need to bear in mind how popular propecia is. If say, 10 million people take finasteride, 2% of those would be 200 000 people with side effects.
Thats a whole lot of people! However, your chances are still 98% to avoid them.
