research Current Evaluation of Amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.
research Identification of Transcriptional Targets of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Dermal Papilla Cells of Human Scalp Hair Follicles: EP2 Is a Novel Transcriptional Target of Wnt3a
Wnt3a activates certain genes in hair follicle cells, including a newly discovered one, EP2, which may affect hair growth.
