I have been taking Xelganz for about a year just this month my insurance approved my coverage. It has worked great on hair regrowth all over my face and body (except for male pattern baldness). The issue I have had with this drug is the numerous upper respiratory infections and chronic coughs. I also have many dysplastic nevus on my back and upper abdomen which puts me at higher risk for skin cancers.

My dilemma is I have a two year old beautiful baby girl. I love the way this drug has grown my eyebrows and some lashes back but I fear the risk factor involved with depression of my immune system. Do I give into vanity and take this drug or do I put my long term health above the risk? As of now I have stopped the Xelganz. I have concluded that my daughter needs a father more than I need two two-inch strips of hair above my eyes. I fear losing my brows and will continue my steroid injections for now.

What are your opinions on this subject? Is the drug worth or not worth the risk? I greatly appreciate all of your thoughts.
