Erectile dysfunction is the only thing stopping me i dont care about other sides like depression brainfog etc
You don’t get ED from the drugs. You may have a temporary loss of libido at the start but it goes to normal as the drug stabilizes

I noticed hair loss at 18, waited till I was 21 to start finasteride, I lost a lot of ground in those 3 years. I could have just started taking it at 18 because I had fully grown by then, just didn't want to risk it at the time. I would just start it now if I was you.

Literally what i am doing im waiting a few years untill i start fin but it seems like it keeps getting worse, i was hoping it would slow down but it isnt. How much time have u been taking it for and have u noticed anything in terms of sides?

I was on finasteride for 3.5 years and switched to dutasteride a couple of months ago. Never had any side effects. I noticed some thickening of my hair after about 4 months and it has maintained. I stopped having to style my hair a certain way to hide thin spots. It only regrew my recently lost hair though, that's why you need to hop on fin asap before DHT kills your follicles forever, there's follicles on my head that have been attacked by DHT for years and are dead now.

I switched to dutasteride because I noticed that my cowlick at the back looked quite noticeable under sun light, it has probably always been like that but I hopped on dutasteride just to be safe. Had no sides on dutasteride either, it's stronger than finasteride.

Just do .5 a day like everyone else. I promise there’s nothing to worry about. Read my thread I recently posted on nocebo.

I went straight onto 1mg daily, didn't bother micro dosing.

I'm 18 about to turn 19 and I'm also thinking of waiting until 21 ngl, I wanna max out everything.

How much ground can really be lost in those 2-3 years when masking it with minoxidl?

Depends on how aggressive your hair loss is. I lost quit a bit of density in my temples but nowhere near enough to seem like I'm badly balding. Some people go from nw1 to nw7 in 3 years. Minoxidil alone should hold it off for a couple of years until you can get on fin.
