    Default Fin poll

    Basically, I Just Wrote A Really long post And My phone Deleted It. iT Also chooses To Italicise Letters Every So Often, I Would Take The Time To Change It But I Think I Might throw It Out The ****ing Window First, so Apologies. The Gist Of The Last message was About Fin And how There Are So Many Conflicting Opinions about it on Here. Except It Was Real ****in Heart Felt, It Is my First Post and Took Me Ages to Write. So I Am a Little Irritated Right Now, If I Had more Hair I Would Be pulling It Out.
    Maybe When I Have The Time And a Laptop I Will Rewrite It Because There Were A Few Points I Really Wanted To Make.
    Anywho, l'm Considering Taking Fin, when I Read This forum It Seems If You Really Want To Be Proactive You HAVE to Take it, But Then I Will Read Another Thread Where It is The Worst Thing In The World, So I Just Wanted To Get A General Consensus With A Poll. Replies Will Be Greatly Appreciated.
    All The Best!

    Sorry if I come across as a dick in that post, I was just really frustrated the first one was deleted. The poll would have made more sense if it wasn't.
    Thanks again.

    I keep changing my mind if I should I try it or not. I do usually come to the conclusion that I would only realisticlly want to be on it for a short period of time, so what is the point in delaying the balding process just keep it short and be done with it. Prob one of the harder aspects of dealing with balding is weighing up the options available and deciding if it is worth the risk, money and commitment needed for it to be successful.

    That is another issue for me,
    I tried shaving my head thinking, 'just be done with it', but as superficial as it sounds I just didn't feel myself, felt I had lost a big part of my personality and was miserable. But at the same time, I'm not sure if I would be happy taking Fin for an indefinite period of time.
    That is another reason for the poll, I have Finpecia, but I change my mind as whether to take it or not several times a day. I know people have negative experiences with it, but was wondering if you hear those cases most often as they have a reason to be vocal about It, and rightly so. But they may be in the small minority, as those who have had successful experiences don't feel the need To share that on forums.
    And that is the thing if the poll showed, for example, 5 to 1in favour of Fin, then I would probably go for it, only 0.25 Twice a week mind, but if it showed 5 to 1 with people H
    having negative experiences, then I don't know if I would bother. I think actually seeing some overall numbers of peoples experiences would help people like me out with whether to take it or not, rather than just reading isolated cases, good or bad.

    I have no way of proving the statement one way or another but recently I went to see a hair specialist about my hair loss. We talked about Fin and other experimentals like RU and surprisingly she has prescribed fin over 500 times and from that only one had reported bad sides plus another who wasn't sure. Now I guess there are a few that would have had some niggles and didn't complain. But overall she was positive about the drug.

    Thanks, I really appreciate your response. I think the majority of people don't experience sides, so I think I am going to go for it. It is just the few horror stories you hear about that make me a little wary. But I guess that is the case with all drugs. Take penicillin for example, it works for most, but there are those who are allergic. Or is that oversimplifying it?

    I chose option one, I have not sides, but no way of telling if it is working. I have only been on it for two months. For the most part things have not gotten worse for me, but I am using keto shampoo and minox. Good thread though. It will be good to see how many people are actually having success on fin without sides, instead of focusing on the few that have had them.

    Taking Propecia was the best decision I ever made for myself!
