Anyways, I got scared of sides, perpetually learned to cope with the state of my hair (I would tell myself: "Hey man, it's not that bad" and would move on with work, school, etc. Every week or two the hair would be a bit worse, I'd scare myself away from finasteride, and the cycle would continue.
Finally, it got to be too much. I decided to make a commitment to finasteride. I ordered it from an on-line source and popped it right away. I decided the risk was worth it. The rest is history.
I'm very happy that I started fin and that I stuck it out through the initial sides. To be honest, I'm still a little angry with myself for letting people talk me into waiting. Everyone on this site wants to be so cautious: "stick it out, wait a little longer, it's a big risk to start finasteride".
Short answer: Start finasteride if you can commit to it, if you can promise yourself to quit if real sides occur, and promise to always stay objective.
