Callan, along with thousands of others, focused on Bieber’s impudence – the proverbial ugly American, a little punk criticizing a mature, respected Brit – not to mention his lack of knowledge about how Propecia really works. (While delaying further hair loss, Propecia does not typically help it grow back). I agree Bieber’s careless remarks were rude and inappropriate, and yes, Bieber should get his facts straight before shooting off his mouth as if an authority about anything.

Does Bieber, or any of these youngsters, really understand the risks and complications that can arise when medical interventions put youth and beauty before all else? For Propecia, there may be long-term sexual side effects.

As many PH members as possible should post comments on Vivian Diller’s column, as she is the only journalist to date who has pointed out the dangers of Propecia in the context of the Justin Bieber-Prince William flap. Thanks.
