Glossary Primary Hair Follicles

initial hair-producing structures formed during fetal development

Primary hair follicles are the initial hair-producing structures that develop in the skin during fetal development. These follicles typically give rise to thicker, coarser hairs, such as those found on the scalp, eyebrows, and eyelashes. They are distinct from secondary hair follicles, which produce finer, shorter hairs like those on the body and face.

community Is microneedling worth it when you're on dut and oral min?

in Microneedling 11 upvotes 6 months ago

Microneedling may not significantly enhance hair growth when combined with dutasteride and oral minoxidil, as its primary benefit is improving topical absorption. Some users suggest using a 1.5mm depth for potential follicle stimulation, but results and effectiveness vary.

community How a follicle next to it is so genetically different that it never miniaturized??

in Chat 219 upvotes 11 months ago

Genetic differences in hair follicles affect hair loss patterns. Treatments discussed include finasteride, dutasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841.

community PP405 Won’t Work: Follicle Is Miniaturized, Fibrosed, And Missing Key Support Cells

7 months ago

PP405 is ineffective for miniaturized, fibrosed hair follicles in androgenetic alopecia. AMP303 may activate hair follicle stem cells, but minoxidil and finasteride are still the main treatments.

community GT20029 China Phase II Trial For AGA Reached Primary Endpoint

133 upvotes 2 years ago

The GT20029 tincture, a topical androgen receptor degrader, showed significant hair growth and good safety in a China Phase II trial for male androgenetic alopecia (AGA), with the 1% dose twice weekly identified as optimal. The company plans to initiate Phase III trials in China and Phase II in the U.S., and the treatment also shows promise for acne.

community Other factors involved then DHT/5aR

5 upvotes 3 months ago

DHT is the primary cause of hair loss, but factors like diet, stress, and lifestyle can influence its severity. Treatments like finasteride and dutasteride target DHT, while maintaining overall health is also important.
