I have been taking propecia for 1 year and half so far it has done nothing except making me broke and loosing more hair than I originally have. My shedding started after 1 year and I thought it was just normal since its suposed to make it shed but it got to the point where it made me bald. It gave me numerous side effects such as weight gain ,acne and it gave me man boobs. I have many friends that took propecia as well and they are having same side effects as well. It may work for some people but from looking through different internet website forums,reviews and asking a personal family doctor friend it doesn't work for most people. I don't blame people for asking if propecia works or pictures to prove because they probably read and heard bad things about it. I finally just accepted human nature and shave my head completly ,also stop taking propecia. I have never felt so good in my life and being single it actually increase my dating lifestlye,also receiving numerous compliments from women. IF you want to try propecia you should if its really affecting your personal life or self esteem and see how it works for you but accepting being bald will definetly not give you any side effects or emty your pocket.
