Androgens have no effect on eyebrow growth?
-
I can not answer your question about androgens. However, the medical term for the eyebrow hair loss is "eyebrow hypotrichosis," and it's far more common in people with an underactive thyroid. The outer third of the eyebrow is often missing and thyroid treatment can help restore the loss.

getting thicker eyebrows
It may be worth experimenting Castor oil.

@DavidPS i'm pretty sure castor oil works through being a weak pge2 analogue, which might cause orbital fat loss which i wanna avoid

And if you try it i'd say apply it very lightly because it can clog a pore on the rare occasion. But it doesn't seem to happen with the homemade sunscreen formula mixed with iodine/iodide.

@Insomniac i take oral minox (2.5mg ED) but it won't get me to where i'd ideally like to be so i'm looking to combine it with other methods
-
@Insomniac this is an extreme hyper responder to minoxidil, 99.9% of people won't get results like this
-
@BioEclectic yeah i think i saw someone on rpf have success with this. is the mechanism of action understood?

@hypercashoidism
i don't recall reading anything except guesswork. In addition to coconut oil i've seen castor oil mentioned more than once. A person can do separate protocols of both oils, taking a short break when completed with one before they begin the other, that would be my advice anyway ..
