You cant get it on the NHS so it costs. Someone here posted they got a years worth of generic propecia for about £7 but they got it through a private dermatologist which cost about £100 for the consultation.
Boots sell it for £90 for 3 months worth but you'll need to produce a prescription from your doctor when you get it, you'll only need to produce the prescription to them once and they'll put you on their "hair retention program". Or you can buy it from an online pharmacy which is cheaper still, I'm sure someone will post a website you can order from I'm not entirely sure of one myself as I went to Boots.
But the most important thing is to inform your GP you are taking it. I'd also say do your research and learn how propecia works, its hormone suppression which is quite a big thing for your body to adjust to, so research thoroughly and decide if it's something you want to try.

I agree with the good advice given on here so far.
At 17 you are still a minor and I would feel much better if you got a medical opinion from your doctor before you make your decision.
Are you able to put up some pics of your hairline? You can right click the photo and block your face out for privacy if you wish.
