Worried and lost, what to do

[allTheGoodNamesAreTaken]

Okay thanks for the input.
Propecia isnt actually sold in my country though, which is partially why i wanted to see the dermatologist.
Should i get the brand name finasteride online or get those 5x doses and a pill cutter?

I don't know where you are but I have purchased Propecia and avodart online (as well as a prescription) from the pharmacydirectgb website (UK company), and I've had it delivered to me whilst I've been in the UK and in the US. And I believe they ship to many more countries than that.

If you're on a tight budget then I believe you'll save money by getting (I think it's named Proscar?) and dividing the 5 mg pills up. Generic medications are supposed to be chemically identical to the actual brand-name stuff, just sold more cheaply when the patent runs out for the brand name company. However, I've always gone for brand name because I trusted it more. It was just one less variable to consider - ie. if it turned out that I saw no positive results, I wouldn't be wondering if it was because I'd been buying poorly-manufactured pills.

Actually regarding the dermatologist, I'll add this. If you're convinced you've just got standard male pattern baldness then yeah, I reckon a dermatologist isn't going to be much use. They don't have any magic treatment or we'd all be all over it. But if you think it could be something else causing your hair loss, then it might be worth seeing one.
