Minoxidil is the only FDA-approved topical drug for treating male or female pattern hair loss, and other medications like finasteride and dutasteride can also increase hair growth.
research Finasteride Treatment of Female Pattern Hair Loss
Finasteride with oral contraceptive helps improve hair loss in premenopausal women.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma for Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP injections improve hair thickness for baldness.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Sebaceous Gland

research Hormonal Regulation of Hair Follicles Exhibits a Biological Paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Hormones and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Genetic Ablation of the CDP/Cux Protein C Terminus Results in Hair Cycle Defects and Reduced Male Fertility
Mutant CDP/Cux protein causes hair defects and reduced male fertility in mice.
research WNT10A Mutation Causes Ectodermal Dysplasia by Impairing Progenitor Cell Proliferation and KLF4-Mediated Differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Markers of Epidermal Stem Cell Subpopulations in Adult Mammalian Skin
