Thanks a lot for your feedback guys. We are really luckt to have a forum like that. I think i will try the meds first and then take it from there. So, does it really matter what drug i take. I have some friends in India so i can get Finpecia easily. so is finpecia good enough as compared to Proscar and Propecia. Also, how long should i give before deciding to go for the surgery or no.

Hi Guys First of all, a big thanks to Bill and Pat for running such a great informative forum. I have been researching on this forum for about a month and it has been great. So, i thought i needed a Hair transplant and have had 4 consultations with doctors recommended on this forum. All top notch surgeons. One doctor recommended that i should be on Proscar for one year and come back for surgery after that. He says i might not need surgery at all. BTW, i have a bald patch on my crown and a little thinning on the front side. He says since i have some hairs in these areas, proscar might work. Hair restoration is only for those people who have no hair on their scalp. He also said, since i was a case of diffused thinning,i might not be totally happy with a surgery as i might have some shock loss that might negate the effect. I have been on Rogaine for about 5 years now. The second doctor said i should try Finpecia for 3 months and then get the surgey done. The other two doctors were ready to do the surgery and were a little reluctant to work on the crown area. But after some discussion, they said they were willing to do it but i should not expect a great result. Ok....so the problem is i am now confused as to what to do..the first problem is to go for surgery or not at this time. the second issue is that these doctors have recommended Finpecia from India, Propecia and Proscar respectively..I dont know which one should i take. I thought it would be a great idea to have 4-5 consultations but the more doctors i meet the more confused i get.....i want my hair back but i dont want to make a hasty decision either....I hope you guys can offer your advice...as i make this life long decision as to what to do...
