The minimum effective doses of both hormones to suppress hair growth were around 5 ng/ml, which corresponds well to the normal plasma level of testosterone in adult males in vivo, suggesting that scalp hair growth may be critically controlled by testosterone inAdult males.

Between days 10 and 20 the major source of repopulation is probably derived from local migration and proliferation of surviving hair follicle basal cells within the irradiated field, and this is primarily due to cell proliferation and migration from the unirradiated margins of the field.
