community why are beard gains on min usually permanent?
Beard gains from minoxidil are usually permanent due to facial hair follicles' lower sensitivity to DHT. Scalp hair requires ongoing DHT suppression with treatments like finasteride, dutasteride, and RU58841 to maintain gains after stopping minoxidil.
community How come beard hair on minoxidil is permanent while scalp hair while on it under fin/duta is not?
Beard hair grown with minoxidil can become permanent because it is not sensitive to DHT, unlike scalp hair, which requires ongoing minoxidil use even with DHT blockers like finasteride or dutasteride. Dutasteride reduces scalp DHT significantly but not completely, which may explain why scalp hair still needs minoxidil for maintenance.
