Intermediate Hairs

I seem to find this question posted in a lot of places around the internet but unfortunately I have not come across a clear response. It has been known that when a terminal hair is subjected to the miniaturization process, intermediate hairs can be found in the balding area. As a result, most men that are losing their hair may notice these thinner hairs in their comb and in the shower as they fall out.

My question is, do men that are not undergoing androgenic alopecia produce these intermediate hairs as well? I have personally noticed that I regularly lose intermediate hairs that are quite long (> 2 in.) but from non balding areas of the scalp. Is this is a sign that this region will soon be subjected to the balding process or can a normal non balding person also produce these intermediate hairs in noticeable amounts?

The follicular unit contains terminal hairs and vellus hairs. The vellus hairs (sometimes called peach fuzz) may not cycle at the same time as the terminal hairs, as they may be on a different cycle. Intermediate hairs seem to be hairs that are seen as the anagen process commences and these small, baby hairs can be seen independent of the full terminal hair. The intermediate hair may grow into full terminal hairs.
