I didnt see the point since i had a cause and it changed nothing treatment wise. i have no hair on my legs below the knee and little from the knee up. i have less hair on the back of my hands than i used to also.
As far as I know the hair follicles are innervated only by autonomic small fibers and not by large fibers.
