research Biochemical and Trichological Characterization of Diffuse Alopecia in Women
Diffuse alopecia in women may be related to androgens and iron deficiency, and basic hormone and nutrient screening is useful.
research Role of 5α-Reductase in Health and Disease
5α-reductase is essential for male sexual development and its inhibitors have potential in treating various conditions related to hormone action.
research Androgens Trigger Different Growth Responses in Genetically Identical Human Hair Follicles in Organ Culture Reflecting Their Epigenetic Diversity in Life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Alopecia: Managing the Basics
The document concludes that treatments for female hair loss and excess body hair are available, but managing expectations is important.
research Comparison of Flutamide and Spironolactone in the Treatment of Hirsutism: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Flutamide is more effective and has fewer side effects than spironolactone for treating hirsutism.
research Acne-Associated Syndromes: Models for Better Understanding of Acne Pathogenesis
The document concludes that certain genetic mutations and dietary factors are involved in acne development, and treatments like isotretinoin and diet changes can help manage it.
research Targeted Transfollicular Delivery of Artocarpin Extract from Artocarpus Incisus by Means of Microparticles
Microparticles containing artocarpin extract could effectively treat hair loss and acne with minimal side effects.
research Hirsuties
Hirsutism in women is often due to hormone sensitivity and has significant psychological effects.
research Biology of the Skin and Dermatological Disease
Knowing how skin works and its diseases helps doctors diagnose and treat skin conditions better.
research Effect of MK-386, a Novel Inhibitor of Type 1 5 Alpha-Reductase, Alone and in Combination with Finasteride, on Serum Dihydrotestosterone Concentrations in Men
MK-386 and finasteride together effectively reduce DHT levels, potentially treating acne and male pattern baldness.
research Androgens and Alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research The Female Pattern Hair Loss: Review of Etiopathogenesis and Diagnosis
Female pattern hair loss involves hormonal factors, genetics, and may be linked to low ferritin levels.
research Hormonal Therapy in Female Pattern Hair Loss
Hormonal therapies help treat female hair loss, but results are slow and vary.
research Male-Pattern Baldness, Common Latent Viruses, and Microcompetition
Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.
research A Rare Case of Postmenopausal Hirsutism Associated With a Serous Cystadenofibroma of the Ovary
Benign ovarian tumors can cause excess male hormones and related conditions in postmenopausal women.
research Hair Problems in Women: A 1997 Study on Prevalence, Psychological Impact, and Treatment Approaches
Hair problems are common and distressing for women, but increasing knowledge of treatments offers hope.
research Progressive Expression of PPARGC1α Is Associated with Hair Miniaturization in Androgenetic Alopecia
Increased PPARGC1α relates to hair thinning in common baldness.
research Hair Aging And Anti-Aging
Hair ages due to various factors and treatments like minoxidil and finasteride can help, but more research and better public awareness are needed.
research Medical Management Options for Hair Loss
The document concluded that FDA-approved treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are effective for hair loss, while the effectiveness of natural remedies and other non-approved treatments is not well-supported by evidence.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Acne
Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Iatrogenic Androgenetic Alopecia in a Male Phenotype 46XX True Hermaphrodite
Hormone treatment caused hair loss, finasteride helped regrowth.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Male androgenetic alopecia involves hair follicle miniaturization due to DHT, with potential treatments using inhibitors and blockers.
research Promotion of Hair Growth by Rosmarinus Officinalis Leaf Extract
Rosemary leaf extract may be an effective natural treatment for hair growth and male pattern baldness.
research Male Pattern Baldness: Current Treatments, Future Prospects
Current treatments for male pattern baldness include minoxidil and finasteride, with new options being developed.
research Use of the TrichoScan to Assess Female Pattern Hair Loss
TrichoScan helps identify subtle hair thinning in women with androgenetic alopecia.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment Options
Hair loss from genetics and hormones can be treated with drugs or surgery.
