I have been thinking about how to get more participants into the studies. In my opinion it would be a good idea to put an advertisement in a newspaper from Boston or near that area saying something like " If you are suffering from finasteride side effects, you can now participate in Brigham and Woman’s study…" (for example). I don’t know how much can it cost, but if someone from the US could phone a newspaper and find that info, that would be great.
The cost of the advert could be probably paid with the contribution of some members. (E.g. If 40 members agree to pay 50 dollars, we would have 2000 dollars).
What do you think? We have to do whatever we can to help finish these studies. Without them, we are dead. This is the only reason why many of us are still fighting to survive, so we have to think the best way to help publish the studies this year.
