This meta-analysis found that treating male androgenetic alopecia with 5α-reductase inhibitors increases the risk of sexual dysfunction, with a statistically significant risk for finasteride but not for dutasteride.

This study identified differences in adverse symptoms among patients with post-finasteride syndrome based on short and long androgen receptor gene polymorphisms.

This review details five cases of syphilitic alopecia, an uncommon symptom in syphilis affecting mainly men, emphasizing that dermatologists should be vigilant as it can appear as the sole symptom.

This study found that finasteride treatment in males with androgenetic alopecia was linked to significant changes in sperm parameters and increased testosterone levels, but no sexual dysfunction was observed, and sperm parameters returned to baseline after treatment stopped.

This review discusses sexual side effects in men with androgenic alopecia treated with 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the potential link between androgenetic alopecia and COVID-19 severity, examining the role of androgens and relevant treatments, but reports no new clinical results.

This study evaluated potential penile vascular changes and persistent adverse effects in men discontinuing 5α-reductase inhibitors for androgenic alopecia, but no new clinical results were reported.

This study found that Italian dermatologists commonly prescribe 1 mg/day finasteride for androgenetic alopecia despite reported sexual side effects, due to its perceived long-term efficacy.

The researchers presented a rare case of a four-year-old developing scarring alopecia after a two-week ICU stay, highlighting the challenge of diagnosing pressure alopecia in children and the crucial role of early detection and trichoscopy in preventing permanent hair loss.

This case series described five patients with chronic alopecia areata who successfully maintained long-term disease control using a combination of topical immunotherapy and other treatments over 9–15 years, highlighting the approach's continued value alongside novel therapies.

In this retrospective study conducted at a dermatology institute in Mexico, researchers analyzed 1,888 adult alopecia cases, identifying alopecia areata as the most common type. The study underscores the importance of regional studies to better understand alopecia patterns and inform management strategies.

In this case report, the researchers documented a rare instance of plica neuropathica, characterized by matted and twisted hair, occurring alongside diffuse alopecia, marking the first such documented association and emphasizing its diagnostic challenges in identifying causes of alopecia.

This report presents a case where a 17-year-old male developed severe unilateral alopecia following radiotherapy for pediatric glioblastoma multiforme, which did not respond to minoxidil or platelet-rich plasma treatments.

In this study conducted at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, researchers reported that males with androgenetic alopecia had significantly higher levels of serum LH, prolactin, testosterone, DHEA-S, and free androgen index, and lower levels of serum FSH and SHBG compared to those without hair loss.

New factors in female hair loss include genetics, hormones, stress, and inflammation; future treatments should also focus on these areas and consider the patient's emotional well-being.

This study found no difference in lipid levels between men with and without androgenetic alopecia, suggesting the increased heart disease risk associated with this condition does not solely depend on cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

This study suggests that a combination of topical minoxidil with oral finasteride and dutasteride may promote new hair growth in androgenetic alopecia, with minor safety concerns reported.

This study found that young adult men with moderate to severe AGA have poorer semen quality compared to those with normal to mild AGA.
