This study provides evidence that human skin contains genes and enzymes necessary for producing serotonin and melatonin.

In this study, a treatment regimen combining cyproterone acetate and ethinyl estradiol significantly improved acne and seborrhoea in most women after three months, but had varied effects on hirsutism and alopecia.

This article discusses the potential role of melatonin in protecting skin against stress and maintaining homeostasis, based on its local synthesis and various protective functions, but presents no new clinical results.

This study reported that spironolactone at 200 mg/day significantly improved facial hair growth in women with hirsutism and showed a sustained reduction in ovarian androgens over one year.
