That's it! I have thrown in the towel for not using propecia and minoxidil. Will use it now. What will happen to me?

Looking at the mirror, I see the hideous monster I have become, and I prowl the pharmacies for a vial that shall give me relief. In this grotesque form that is my head, I wonder, will I become normal again, or will my beastly form magnify to frightening levels? What more awaits me if I consume the medications of the lost ones? Will I grow a feminine cleavage, will my balls dry up, will my hair fall hasten? These are questions that plague me as I ponder what to do next, having run out of choices and having exhausted the world of natural medicine. I am desperate, clinging to my former self, thus I weep.

You might have hair dysmorphic disorder.

I have a theory that most people on hair forums have been through victimization and abuse in the past. I know I did.
It's hard to leave the past in the past, but it's not impossible.

At some point, you regret it. I still do, 9 years on. Good luck in your mental health battle. It's more important than your hair is. Besides, dealing with stress will be better for your hair than popping propecia is.

What will happen to you if you use propecia and minoxidil as prescribed? You'll probably grow back some hair without side effects. Be as leery of the anti-prescription drug hysteria on this message board as you are of the anti-"natural" supplement approach on other forums.

The hairs growing out, is the actual side effect from the drugs. (been there along time ago)
Big difference between real and artificial hair.

Regrowing out my own hair naturally as it should be.
