community Do hair follicles dies or are dormant ?

in Finasteride/Dutasteride 92 upvotes 1 year ago

learn Latanoprost

How does latanoprost work to make eyelashes and possibly scalp hair grow? Studies report that latanoprost, a prostaglandin analog, lengthens the anagen (growth) phase of hair follicles, which is the mechanism given for the eyelash thickening seen in glaucoma patients; on the scalp the evidence is one 16-man pilot study and animal work, so the effect there is unproven.
