Dr. Mirna Perex-Moreno, one of the researchers involved in the project, wondered if the hair growth was connected to the body’s immune reaction, and it turned out that she was right.

The magic fix-all for hair loss is still far out of reach.  However advances in research can help us understand key contributing factors such as DHT.
