It depends from your recruiting potential.
If money is not a problem (never was for me on Normal) and troops you use are available in abundance, losing some of them is OK. Even 50% or more is OK, if it is important battle.
On the other hand, if troop type you use is very rare and only avilable in limited amount (or far away), then you really don't want to lose any. Of course, sometimes it is just best to abadon unit type that is difficult to fill up and switch to something more common in the area. In my game, for this reason, I used some pirate units on freedom islands, some dwarven ones in the mines (to replace pirate group that was unavailable in the mines) and some elven ones in elven territory (to replace dwarven groups unvailable there).
