Am I going bald?! 23 years old

[2020]

Aha, and here we are. That's what I mean.
Now your changing your words. Just stick to what you know.
Maybe something will come along in 5 years, maybe there will not. But for the time being, the OP's doctor is absolutely right and he is required to take the meds for the rest of his life. That's the honest truth.

well something will definitely pan out out of a dozen things that we have going right now..... not sure which ones though

For the rest of his life really? If he's 20, then don't you think that in 20 years there will be a cure available? Which means that he will most definitely have all the hair he wants at 40
