Yeah. Anything being done to solve man’s issue is evil. No matter how much we gear the world towards favoring woman in school, academia, politics and work place, we have to insist we still are basically Saudi Arabia.

#22Oi! Baldy Just accept that it is part of life and of being male. Its because we have testosterone. save yourself a small fortune in hair cuts Buy yourself some decent hair clippers No 1, job done If you want hair on your head grow a beard
Why though? I started taking Finasteride, and so far with zero side effects my hair loss completely stopped. Costs basically nothing and I like my hair? I wish there wasn’t this stigma associated with it and I would have started sooner.
I took finasteride for about 2 years then stopped as it did lower my libido. Which returned over time.
After another 2 years of stopping I haven’t noticed my hair loss starting again.
At least in my case it’s like a miracle drug with minimal side effects.

The side effects of finastetide can be pretty nasty, and you might not even notice you have them. You would expect it to suppress your natural testosterone production, which you’re not going to notice unless you ever stop taking it. It can easily reduce your fertility, which again you’re not going to notice unless you’re having trouble conceiving. The reduction in DHT can also have side effects that are far less visible than gynecomastia. It can cause ED, reduced libido, and mood disorders like depression and anxiety which you might not easily attribute to taking fin.
Unless you’ve had a lot of bloodwork and other testing done, it’s unlikely that you would know how you’ve been impacted by its side effects, and even if the impact to you is ultimately very minimal, a treatment that didn’t have these risks would be far superior.
Any exogenous hormone treatment (or treatment that interferes with the metabolism of hormones) is going to affect the natural functionality of your body in ways you probably don’t want it to. They’re all very risky and dependency forming. It’s almost not really true that these risks are side effects either, they’re just the expected outcomes of the treatment.

#24Just in case there are people who
didn't have this thought but would want to know: a Google Shopping search for "2-deoxy-D-ribose" finds results (though do be careful to ignore any non-explicitly-2-deoxy- supplements).

I've been bald for 20 years now. Started losing hair when I was 19. I couldn't really care less at this point and probably wouldn't reverse it even if I could. Just rock a 5 o'clock shadow all over my head and love it, but man those first 3 years were absolutely brutal. It's a hard thing to cope with for any man. I wish there was a treatment for young guys out there, but I also wish we spent more research on more important things instead.

Women don't go bald in anything close to the same rates, and for their small numbers there are options (wigs are totally normal).
For a man, it's just "deal with it and shave it), or go in shame to a clinic to get an operation.
What's the issue with trying to fix male boldness? It's not like we have a finite capacity of one medical issue at a time.

I'm sick of these people telling others people just accept it and shave it up. Most people look better with hair, losing your hair is a drastic change, for most people it takes years to cope with it and if someone want to go to treatment it's ok.
Preach on. If I’m going to lose any part of my body I’ve had for the majority of my lifetime it’ll be by my own choice thank you very much.

I just started taking finasteride and it seems it has negatively impacted my arousal patterns. I am also transgender and taking estrogen (but no t-blockers, hence the finasteride) but I did not make any other med changes for a year when I started finasteride so the correlation feels pretty clear. I would rather not be taking it!

If the world was run by men, nobody would care about bald dudes.
