Editing the FGF5 gene in sheep increases fine wool growth.

Topical minoxidil helps transgender individuals assigned female at birth grow more facial hair.

Environmental pollutants can damage hair health and cause hair loss.

Nanotechnology could improve hair regrowth but faces challenges like complexity and safety concerns.

The research identified key molecules that help hair matrix and dermal papilla cells communicate and influence hair growth in cashmere goats.

COVID-19 may harm male reproductive health and lower testosterone levels, potentially affecting fertility and causing erectile dysfunction. More research is needed.

Low-dose oral minoxidil may help treat hair loss but is not FDA-approved and can cause side effects like unwanted hair growth and heart issues.

The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.

Beard hair follicles have more androgen receptors than non-balding scalp hair follicles.

Combining flutamide and finasteride can reduce prostate weight and tumor growth, potentially benefiting treatments needing optimal DHT inhibition.

Hidradenitis suppurativa improves with antiandrogen therapy.

Men with less sun-sensitive skin have lower PSA levels, while men with more sun-sensitive skin have higher PSA levels.

Androgens cause oil-producing skin cells with androgen receptors to mature and produce more oil.

A new compound, 3a, effectively fights prostate cancer better than finasteride.

Antiandrogens like flutamide are effective in treating conditions like prostate cancer and hair loss, but there's a need for more potent versions. Understanding their structure can help develop better treatments.

Experts recommend using evidence-based methods to diagnose and treat hirsutism, focusing on symptoms and underlying causes.

Androgens block hair growth by disrupting cell signals; targeting GSK-3 may help treat hair loss.

Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.

Certain gene variations might be linked to severe acne in women but not in men.

Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.

Androgen receptor signaling causes early aging of cells important for hair growth by damaging their DNA.

Blocking the androgen receptor in skin cells reduces their growth response to male hormones, suggesting a possible treatment for skin conditions linked to androgens.

The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.

Testosterone is crucial for development, growth, and various body functions in mammals.

PF-05314882 selectively activates androgen receptors without much effect on prostate and may help in prostate cancer treatment and hair loss prevention.

The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.

Caucasian and Asian women with PCOS generally show similar symptoms, except Asian women have less chest hair.

Minoxidil can cause skin allergy; use alternative solvents or treatments if allergic.
