Hey Bald-Boxer,

actually quite the contrary most, if not all, docs will *strongly* recommend you get and stay on fin (propecia or one of it's equivelants)
ESPECIALLY if your going to have a ht. Some people don't, but the risk of future loss and their consequences (supply and demand) become of greater significance...
But, having said that not EVERYONE who has a ht
gets and stays on meds. It is not a requisite, but is strongly encouraged.
How old are you and what's your current hair loss situation?

fightbald,

Ng2gb is correct.

The benefits of Propecia and or Rogaine are not for the transplanted hair, but to help you keep the existing natural hair you have.
