January 2020 in “Indian Dermatology Online Journal” The document provided an update on female pattern hair loss (FPHL), discussing its multifactorial etiopathogenesis involving genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors. It reviewed diagnostic methods like trichoscopy and the hair pull test, and explored various treatment options including topical treatments (minoxidil, prostaglandin analogs), systemic treatments (finasteride, spironolactone), and novel therapies (platelet-rich plasma, laser treatments). The document emphasized the significant psychosocial impacts of FPHL, the variable responses to conventional treatments, and the promise of newer approaches and combination therapies.
