>You're coping, it's not being contarian. I know plenty of baldies who are health conscious and wouldn't take it because of the unknown health vectors let alone the ones already id'd. Sorting baldness isn't that big of an issue for them, to the point where they'd potentially endanger their fertility.
so they're paranoid about side effects, which are unlikely, and they "don't really care if they go bald" (which sounds like cope to me)
>More worrying is the notion that if a medicine even hints that it is going to fuck you reproductively, then it is designed to be a slow kill/eugenics weapon. This is the age we live in.
more paranoia. Finasteride is very well-studied and is very commonly prescribed generic medication, all of this information is available to the public, it's not like some fringe thing, this has been mainstream healthcare for decades.
consider something that there IS legitimate reason not to take: the corona vaxxes. they DID NOT establish that the shit was safe through studies, it was all a black box where the public had no idea, and/or whatever information we got was BAD. and besides, no reason to take it, since the only ostensible reason was that it protected you from "covid-19" which was a complete nothingburger. and the whole establishment was shilling it, and it used that mRNA technology which had never been tested in humans before. NO REASON to believe that it was safe at all, absolutely retarded to take it. none of that applies to Finasteride
>I have an amazing head of hair tbh and will never need your cope lotion.
what I'm saying is that
if you have experienced hair loss, then you should take it. if you aren't experiencing hair loss, then you don't need it. although, I think it's so common to experience some hair loss, most men over 25 should probably be on it as a preventative, so you can keep a Norwood 1 hairline which is awesome.
and it's a pill, not "lotion". some people apply minoxidil topically, I take it orally because it's more effective. the side effect profile for minoxidil is more concerning than finasteride, actually (possible cardiovascular issues)
