research Presence of Iron in Segmented Heterochromia of the Scalp Hair Without Iron-Deficiency Anemia
This article discusses the presence of iron in segmented heterochromia of scalp hair and concludes that it occurs without iron-deficiency anemia, reporting no new clinical results.
research There Is Some Evidence That Scalp Hair Loss in Women With Iron Deficiency Can Be Improved With Oral Iron Therapy
In this study, oral iron replacement showed some evidence of improving chronic telogen effluvium in iron deficient women, though further research is required to confirm the association.
research Iron Status in Diffuse Telogen Hair Loss Among Women
This study found that women with serum ferritin levels below or equal to 30 ng/mL have a strong association with an increased risk of diffuse telogen hair loss.
research The Diagnosis and Treatment of Iron Deficiency and Its Potential Relationship to Hair Loss
This review discusses the complexities of diagnosing and treating iron deficiency related to nutritional anemia and hair loss, concluding that routine screening and supplementation for hair loss are not yet supported by sufficient evidence.
