The ISHRS (International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery) is having their annual meeting this weekend in Alaska. Yesterday they hosted a discussion for about 30 minutes on the ‘controversy’ of the side effects surrounding the side effects of finasteride.
Unfortunately, the discussion was headed by Edwin Epstein who was formerly a member of a Merck task force and Merck is actually the conferences largest ‘platinum’ level donor. I don’t know what they discussed or concluded but it seems unlikely that they said anything that would support us.
