Should a bad family history sway one from getting a HT?

Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone has been advised against a HT due to their family history?

I'm late 20's, NW3, and all of my father's side, and my older brother are essentially bald. Like, NW 7's.

I've been on medication for a couple of years, which has slowed my recession - although it is still ocurring slowly. 

Would I be unwise to opt for a transplant? I'm worried it may only be a temporary fix. 

Just for reference, I'm on finasteride and minox, but I know some people still lose the battle even with meds when their genetics are too stacked against them.

Any general advice is appreciated, cheers!
