If I remember correctly, in the 5 yr study on Fin, 90% of the people either looked no different then when they started and some grew hair. So atleast statistics are on our side for the 5 yr period. I think I also remember, that in one of his shows Spencer said results peak around the 2.5 yr mark. So I really hope we get many many years!!! I think I'd be ok losing my hair pass the 40 mark. I wouldn't feel like I'd missed out on anything, alot of guys are bald by that age and I might have the money for surgeory, but lets see then.
Oh, when finasteride starts sputtering out for me, I'll almost certainly get on dutasteride if nothing better is out by then. I might even do it preemptively (though maybe not, since I'm more weary of dut).
And yeah, it's a little annoying to see my old man with all that hair. He's been married since his 20's, what does he need it for?!
I shouldn't complain because I'm lucky to have caught MPB early and still maintain a lot of hair, but I must admit, I often wonder how my daily life would be different if I wasn't born with this stupid gene.

My insurance is, so far, refusing to cover Finasteride. I know that insurance will cover 5mg finasteride for prostate problems(proscar) but will not cover 1mg of it for hair growth.
Anyway I get finasteride online. Way cheaper...
