Did you hesitate a lot before starting hair loss medication?

While looking into hair loss management, I noticed that there are really a lot of people debating whether or not to take medication.

There are many stories saying it is effective, but I also hear that once you start, you have to take it for a long time, so I find it difficult to make a decision.

For those of you who are actually taking hair loss medication, how much did you hesitate before starting? I am also curious whether, after starting, you thought, "I should have taken it sooner," or if you wished you had waited a little longer.
