I didn't contradict myself. Estrogen is good for scalp hair, bad for body hair, which I've been saying for years.

It's a relatively new idea among the medical establishment that estrogen is good for scalp hair. Previously, the general assumption appears to have been (in most quarters) that just because estrogen is bad for body hair, it must also be bad for scalp hair.

And I repeat that the total body of work supporting the use of estrogen for MPB probably numbers at least in the hundreds of subjects. The relatively recent Ohnemus et al and the older Kiesewetter et al studies showing a direct in vitro growth-stimulating effect of estrogen (to support the many in vivo studies done in Europe) probably number in the tens of subjects, adding to the hundreds (or possibly thousands) of subjects used in the in vivo experiments.
