유전성 안드로겐탈모증 여성환자의 임상양상과 혈중 dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate 및 total testosterone 치

The study examined 60 female patients with androgenetic alopecia and compared their plasma DHEA-S and total testosterone levels with those of 42 normal controls. The results showed no significant differences in the mean values of these hormones between the patients and controls, regardless of age, clinical type, or presence of hyperandrogenic symptoms (HAS). Most patients were Ludwig type I, with common onset ages between 20-29 years and below 19 years. Seborrhea was the most common symptom, and a family history of alopecia was present in 55% of cases, often involving the father. Overall, hormone levels were within normal limits and did not differ significantly between groups.
