Retrograde Alopecia means definite baldness?

[cichlidfort]

There is a user on this forum who claims their sex drive is shot from using an herbal shampoo. There are others who have taken "natural" treatments known to do absolutely nothing who claim they became impotent on them. Every time finasteride is studied, the scientists are never, ever able to reproduce the kinds of complaints found everywhere on the Internet. One double blind, independent study of low dose fin actually showed higher side effect reports from a placebo than from the actual drug. This hysteria needs to stop.

lol I think I read that thread actually about her herbal shampoo. That was ridiculous.


What do you define as hysteria though (because there are in fact users of Fin that have not been so lucky with it when it comes to side effects)? Also, is Fin effective on the sides of the head/temple area or is it just meant for the crown and top of the scalp? If Fin were to stop my hair loss on the sides then I would seriously consider taking it and see how I react to the drug.
