Well if that's the case then I can just about understand, but if you (you in the general sense) haven't even started to thin yet and are just going to take Propecia as a precaution because hairloss runs in the family, then I'd say you're asking for trouble. You're basically taking a drug that you don't yet need... so maybe you're lowering DHT when it doesn't need lowering.
I believe a couple of posters on this forum made the observation (very non-scientific but nevertheless worth noting) that it's the guys taking Propecia that don't really need it that have a good chance of suffering the side effects. And by not needing it that would be guys that haven't really start to lose hair yet and guys that have just receded at the temples to their mature hairline.

At 21 years old, I've got a slightly balding crown. It's not flat out bald up top but it's noticeable if you look. I'm not gonna lie and say I wish it wasn't there... but I must say I don't feel it's held me back in any way. I can count on one hand the people that have commented on it and they were all guys. I've not yet had a girl say anything and I've been hitting it up pretty hard in the clubs this year!
