    Spex,
    Since hair transplants are art of illusion, if you can comb your hair and style it in a way where it looks like decent coverage would you hold off on a hair transplant? I have diffuse hair loss and extremely thin and noticeable when wet and in the front.

    Yes, most certainly. I would hold off a ht as long as possible.

    Roll with the meds and keep your hairloss under control.

    everyones hair is thin when wet ;)

    Spencer Kobren believes that Finasteride is actually dose dependent even though Merck and many doctors disagree. I have heard a couple of doctors say on Spencer's show that they have seen people get better results on higher dosages. I guess you never know unless you try.:)

    Its been a while since I took propecia, but I heard a lot of horror stories about loss of libido and lack of muscular density amongst other things.. have these rumors been shot down? This was about 5 years ago when I stopped.
