research 17-Hydroxyprogesterone Responses to Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Disclose Distinct Phenotypes of Functional Ovarian Hyperandrogenism and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

42 citations , September 2007 in “The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism”

This study found that women with PCOS who have an exaggerated 17-hydroxyprogesterone response to buserelin exhibit more severe hyperandrogenemia, increased insulin secretion, and reduced insulin sensitivity.

research New Biomarkers to Evaluate Hyperandrogenemic Women and Hypogonadal Men

14 citations , January 2018 in “Advances in Clinical Chemistry”

This review discusses the evaluation of hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men across different life stages and presents biomarkers used for diagnosing male hypogonadism, reporting no new clinical results.

research Antiandrogen Treatment with Spironolactone and Linestrenol Decreases Bone Mineral Density in Eumenorrhoeic Women with Androgen Excess

26 citations , January 1994 in “Hormone and Metabolic Research”

This study found that one year of antiandrogen treatment with spironolactone significantly decreased bone mineral density in young women with androgen excess.

4 citations , March 2013 in “Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment”

This case report describes a rare instance of a patient with anorexia nervosa who was subsequently diagnosed with Cushing's syndrome, highlighting diagnostic challenges due to overlapping symptoms.

research SAT-224 Polycystic Ovary Syndrome with Adrenal Hyperandrogenemia and Refractory Hirsutism

April 2019 in “Journal of the Endocrine Society”

This case study reported that even with improved adrenal androgens and testosterone levels, treating women with AH-PCOS with glucocorticoids did not significantly improve ovulatory function or hirsutism.

community Functional hair follicles grown from stem cells: Scientists have created natural-looking hair that grows through the skin using human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), a major scientific achievement that could revolutionize the hair growth industry.

171 upvotes 7 years ago

Scientists have grown natural-looking hair from stem cells, potentially revolutionizing hair growth treatments. Concerns include cost, DHT resistance, and the need for future procedures.

community Fully Functional Hair Follicles Have Been Grown in The Lab For The First Time

375 upvotes 6 months ago

Scientists have successfully grown functional hair follicles in the lab, marking a significant advancement in hair regeneration research. A user shared their personal experience with hair loss treatments, including Minoxidil and Finasteride, and plans to share a detailed protocol for hair restoration.

community Fully functional hair follicle regeneration through the rearrangement of stem cells and their niches

4 upvotes 11 years ago

Hair follicle regeneration through stem cell rearrangement is discussed, focusing on bioengineered cellular structures rather than traditional hair transplants. Treatments mentioned include Minoxidil, finasteride, and RU58841.

community No more hair transplants - a new FDA-cleared fractional laser treatment called FoLix

105 upvotes 11 months ago

A new FDA-cleared fractional laser treatment called FoLix is discussed as a potential alternative to hair transplants, but users express skepticism due to its high cost, pain, and lack of proven results. Some users prefer traditional methods like Minoxidil, finasteride, steroid shots, and microneedling for hair growth.

community Hair repigmentation of poliosis circumscripta in androgenetic alopecia patient treated with exosomes and fractional picosecond laser

2 upvotes 2 years ago

Exosomes combined with fractional picosecond laser treatment were effective in treating androgenetic alopecia and promoting repigmentation in white hair patches. The role of exosomes in hair repigmentation, particularly in conditions like poliosis, is not well-studied.

learn Glycerin

Does topical glycerin have any effect on hair thickness or follicle function? Topical glycerin mainly hydrates the hair and scalp; no study has shown that it increases hair thickness or changes follicle function.

learn Selenium

What is Selenium and why is it important for healthy hair and scalp function? Selenium is a trace mineral the body needs, but extra selenium has not been shown to help hair in people who are not deficient. Too much (above the US upper limit of 400 µg a day) can cause hair loss.

learn Thymosin Beta 4

What is Thymosin Beta 4, and why is it being researched in relation to hair follicle function and regeneration? Thymosin beta-4 is a natural peptide whose effect on hair has been studied only in mice, rats and cells; there are no human trials. It is not approved for hair loss, and the FDA flags its grey-market form, TB-500, for safety risks.
