So last week my father came up to visit me. He's in his late 60s, has a sizable bald spot on his crown and diffuse hair, but still has something of a hairline. My grandfather on his side had a reasonably full head of hair into old age, whereas my maternal grandfather was quite bald in middle age. Anyway somehow we got onto the topic of hair, and I mentioned my sordid history with Finasteride (which I've been off for several years). To my surprise, he tells me he's been taking Proscar for the past ten years for BPH. My mind was blown, not only because I've never known another finasteride user in the flesh, but also because I was holding onto the glimmer of hope that my hairloss wouldn't be as aggressive as my grandfather's and I would take more after my father. But the fact that he has a bald crown (which is a relatively recent development by my recollection) even on finasteride does not bode well. Help me, science. :shock:
And for those that are curious, apparently everything's still working down there (I didn't want to pry too deeply). :freak:
