Any thoughts on Hair Transplant without Propecia/Finasteride? (photos)

yankeeintheUK
First question here on RS :) I'm 25 years old and have been losing my hair since 23. I was on a quarter of Finasteride for a year and did wonders for me, all my hair came back but got really bad sexual side effects from it around 6 months in - had to stop taking it. Minoxidil did nothing for me. Looking at HT now. Some docs are telling me might need two HT's because I'm younger and the hairloss/itching isn't stopping. Any thoughts as to the effectivness of HT's without help from Finasteride?
