I would agree that a one year trail for side effects is not sufficient to gague safety levels as to see adequate hair growth the drug is recommended to be taken for three years continuously by many doctors.In my case I have taken Propecia on and off for around 10 years and have not noticed any deleterious effects to date.However, IMO longer term studies should be carried out.....

I heard that the impotence side effect was irreversible, even after stopping the treatment. That risk was enough for me to decide "i'll just let the hair disappear." Thankfully it hasnt progressed any further, but i am hoping for a medical breakthrough (permanent cure, not only while taking the drug)
