research Lisinopril-Induced Alopecia: A Case Report
Lisinopril, a heart medication, probably caused hair loss in a patient, which stopped after switching drugs.
research Big Head? Bald Head! Skull Expansion: Alternative Model for the Primary Mechanism of Androgenetic Alopecia
The paper suggests that hair loss might be caused by skull growth, not just DHT's effect on hair follicles, and calls for more research.
research Anti-Androgenic Therapy with Finasteride in Patients with Chronic Heart Failure – A Retrospective Propensity Score Based Analysis

research Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and Associated Hirsutism in Adolescents
Early diagnosis and treatment of PCOS in teenagers can help prevent more severe adult PCOS.
research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.
research A Comprehensive Approach in Diagnosing Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The document concludes that diagnosing PCOS requires a thorough approach, considering various symptoms and risks, and calls for improved methods to identify PCOS types and prevent diabetes.
research Ovarian Leydig Cell Tumor and Postmenopausal Hirsutism with Signs of Virilization
A woman's excessive hair growth and masculine features were due to a rare benign ovarian tumor and endometrial cancer, which improved after surgery.
research New Criteria for the Clinical Diagnosis of Hyperandrogenism in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and the Risk of Overdiagnosis
Using only hyperandrogenism to diagnose PCOS can lead to overdiagnosis.
research Markers of Peripheral Androgen Action In Vivo and In Vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Overview
AGA is a genetic, hormonal hair loss treated with finasteride, minoxidil, and supplements, but new compounds are being developed.
