That's great expert advice pharmer!...so, to clarify, not taking these drugs means you'll have more testosterone, right? And therefore, be more prone to be bald. Some of the commercials for these drugs say women should not even handle the medicine becuase it could cause birth defects. Sounds lethal.

You are correct, if a woman were to take Propecia during pregnancy it could be very harmful to the fetus. These drugs are an absolute contraindication for woman during pregnancy. So, you are correct in stating that Propecia is a powerful medication. However I will repeat myself and state that Propecia hansn't been linked to infertility. -

hey Tyler, I haven't been here for a long time (4 months) so I don't know too much about you. Is that little girl your daughter? She is sooooooooo adorable. I love kids (I hope to have some of my own in 4 or 5 years) and I have to tell you that child looks adorable.
Yep, that's my daughter! Thanks for the compliment!! You'll love having kids when you do. -

My brother, the cousin sounds like he's viewing you through crap colored glasses of his own making. He has obvious issues with his own MPB. Sounds like he is taking out some issues on you, since you are sly and have the strength to be who you are. Move on.

He's not making fun of YOU for YOUR actions. When he says those things he's doing it out of his own insecurities. He doesn't want to admit that he chose a difficult way to deal with hair loss, and he realizes that you did the right thing.
Take it as a compliment. What he means is "you did the right thing, and I'm too proud to admit that my way was the wrong way." -

Your cousin and mine are cut from the same cloth. DIG< DIG< DIG. Although we are close and probably because we are, she thinks she can say anything. Finally I had to ask her if FO means anything to her. She took the hint.

My cousin who is 8 years older than me who has been using rogaine for 12 years and propecia for 6 years for his hair loss, he is going to use hair club, his mother and my mother were sisters, he totally makes fun of me for shaving my head, when he saw me last weekend for the first time in 14 years, he told me that i was a stupid fool for shaving my head, but i have since found out that he cant have kids because his sperm egg has bewen killed because of those hair loss drugs he has been using, my cousin is going to wear a toupee if hair club doesnt work for him, and he will still use the rogaine and propecia, i just dont know how to deal with him, he wants me to stop shaving my head, i told him that iam going to shave my head for good because it is my way of deafeating male pattern baldness becaue it it going to hit me real bad in about 5 years when i basically have horsehoe head, when i started shaving my head five years ago i had a full head of hair but since i started sahaving my head i started to notice the receeading and thining hair line.
any help form my other bald brothers in delaing with this cousin would be helpful.
Would a swift boot in the nackers be inappropriate here (they dont work anymore anyway THANKS TO THE DRUGS THE MUPPET TOOK)?
Only kidding. Seriously, this guy sounds like someone not worth losing sleep over. As already mentioned by several other brothers, it sounds as if he is dealing with his insecurity by having a go at you. Ignore him. -

It seems to me you're giving someone you only see 10 times in a hundred years an awful lot of power to ruin your day. On top of that your personalities clash. Consider the source and don't sweat it. Does his opinion really mean that much to you?

Hey... read him 2 Kings 2:32-24 "Elisha and the Bears!" See what the Lord does to people that mock Slyness! (Oh OK, I know that isn't the exact interpretation....lol)
