This case study reports that a virilizing Leydig cell type ovarian tumor in a 40-year-old woman caused hyperandrogenism and virilization symptoms, which improved post-surgery.

This report suggests that peripilar hair casts, potentially linked to modern hair styling or mild trichotillomania, may be more prevalent than currently reported.

A new method was created to accurately measure minoxidil and aminexil in hair loss treatments.

This study found that chemical hair straightening significantly reduced hair curl and improved smoothness and shine, but did not significantly affect transverse fissures or split ends, indicating potential benefits with some side effects.

This review discusses the presence of undeclared substances, including androgenic steroids, in sports supplements and emphasizes potential health risks, without providing new results; it advises caution and consultation on supplement use.

This review discusses the combined use of follicular unit extraction and scalp micropigmentation for hair loss treatment, reporting no new clinical results; the authors note significant industry growth.

This article reviews the causes and management of hirsutism, reports no new results, and emphasizes that prolonged pharmaceutical treatment is necessary for improvement.

This study found that arylhydantoin and arylthiohydantoin derivatives with hydroxybutyl or methyl side-chains showed superior androgen receptor binding affinity and may serve as promising radioiodinated AR ligands.

This article explores evidence for a rational strategy in the endocrine and metabolic management of patients with excess body hair or scalp loss and reports no new clinical results.

This study reports that multiple pyogenic granuloma-like lesions can occur at punch graft sites following hair transplantation, highlighting a potential complication for physicians to be aware of.
