    Default Future Hair Loss After Transplant

    Hey everyone,
    I am 26yo and had a HT last year. I went to one of the best docs and got results I am really happy with. I would say I was pretty much a nw3 with thinning throughout the front 1/3 at 21. I had been on propecia for 3.5 years before the surgery with some frontal regrowth and no additional loss. I figured since the meds worked for me, I could have a ht that would better frame my face (1500 grafts). I guess I was naive, but I was under the impression before I went in that if I kept taking propecia the rest of my life, I really wouldnt go too bald. Then I found these forums and read how it stops working for a lot of people. Unfortunately, I started getting a ton of anxiety that the meds would stop working. I also read Dr. Rassman's blog, which also gives me a ton of anxiety haha. According to my doc, I still have plenty of donor hair and I realize there is hope out there for new treatment. But my anxiety for whatever reason is relentless. My father is a nw6, do people think propecia can prevent that over time? I would love to hear some personal anecdotes from people who have gone through this and have been on the drug for an extended period. I know I should be out not worrying about this....I just have so much damn anxiety! Any comments that might help me chill out would be appreciated.
