No sense in increasing your potential for GD distress through hair loss.<br /><br />I was having this conversation last night at the support group meeting. A regular attendee who has truly beautiful natural hair is worried lest she lose it, and also worried lest her wife object to the prescription on the basis that it is for trans reasons. I pointed out to her that many hundreds of thousands of non-TS men take Finasteride for simple vanity and she could perfectly justify it as "him" on that basis.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027942517258679266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-19424656172363098502010-09-12T08:46:57.267+01:002010-09-12T08:46:57.267+01:00I had my physical last month, and asked for finast...I had my physical last month, and asked for finasteride. I'm new to prostate issues, but this is 1mg for hair loss. My scalp is clearly visible through my hair on top of my head, and I confessed that it was bothering me. I didn't mention that the side effects might be beneficial, too.<br /><br />I haven't filled the prescription yet, but I'm very eager to start.Leslie Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15373261212549008939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-46815431066149121452010-09-12T08:12:22.443+01:002010-09-12T08:12:22.443+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027942517258679266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-49093240451586025652010-09-12T08:12:21.455+01:002010-09-12T08:12:21.455+01:00The thought of a chance I might eventually fall ov...The thought of a chance I might eventually fall over the precipice knowing that had I asked for this years ago I would have it a bit easier was too much.<br /><br />It's never too late to start it BTW if you are worried about your hair.<br /><br />I'm so with you on wishing I could grow it out!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027942517258679266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-90746755816708852152010-09-11T19:30:12.810+01:002010-09-11T19:30:12.810+01:00A wise decision to use this drug, Jenny.

It is unfortunate that I can't take advantage of a full head of hear. I would so like to grow it out.<br /><br />Calie xxxCaliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280127011882954777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-35217280668489811272010-09-02T22:33:44.718+01:002010-09-02T22:33:44.718+01:00I wish I could grow mine out, but Mrs. J. has some...I wish I could grow mine out, but Mrs. J. has something in common with Mrs. Stace on that one.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08027942517258679266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4834395892091327520.post-55043720475003717872010-09-02T12:24:23.758+01:002010-09-02T12:24:23.758+01:00Zero maintenance it may be, but is it worth it?
