    tiny skin structures on the scalp where hair grows

    Human Scalp Hair Follicles are tiny, tunnel-like structures in the skin of the scalp from which hair grows. Each follicle anchors a single hair into the skin and is responsible for the hair's growth cycle, which includes phases of growth (anagen), rest (telogen), and shedding (catagen). These follicles are crucial for hair regeneration and are influenced by various factors, including genetics, hormones, and environmental conditions.

      in Minoxidil  43 upvotes 6 months ago
      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.
