Should men experiencing hair loss take finasteride pills, or just accept their hair loss?

[Peterski]

No, that's not healthy! I accepted losing hair.

How is that not healthy if the same medication which prevents hair loss, also prevents prostate cancer?

And side effects are very rare (all studies which reported otherwise were biased in one way or another).

Real men don't worry about losing hair. Just shave your head and deal with it.

You inherit most of your risk of hair loss from your mother, not from your father. Look at your mom's brothers etc.

Well, they lose their hair by the age of 35-40.

I hope my boyfriend won't lose his hair
his dad has full hair even as very old, so I think he won't....and usually it's guys with thick hair that lose it faster than those with thinner silky hair (like Stears)

I'm 23 almost 24 and have been losing hair for nearly 2 years now. Hairline, sides, and back of my head are intact but the top of my head the hair is pretty thin up there.

I used Rogaine/Minoxidil 5% for 6 months and saw some improvements. I'm no longer using them as I've discovered another much more affordable hair loss remedy: Jamaican Black Castor Oil. I've been using this for the last few days. It worked for my father, so it should for me. I just gotta wait and see.

Had I been older (40+) then I would just suck it up and shave my head. But that's just me. I won't discriminate against others who decide to shave their head even at 18 (yes some guys do go bald this early)
