If they really worked, do you think there would be any bald men in the world?

You get male-pattern baldness from your mother’s side of the family. So, look at your grandfather and uncles. Are they bald–or getting close to it? Then you will be, too. Nothing you can do to change it. Rogaine/Propecia have a slight chance of slowing the process, but not by much. I think (and I’m sure most women would agree with me) that it’s MUCH sexier to see a completely bald man than to see one who is trying to strategically comb his few strands of hair over his bald spot. Comb-overs are HIDEOUS!
