This report describes a Danish family with autosomal dominant hypotrichosis, where affected members experienced gradual diffuse hair loss leading to near-total scalp alopecia by ages 14-21.

This review discusses various causes of hair loss, emphasizing the importance of a structured diagnostic approach, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses various adverse drug reactions affecting hair, such as hair loss, hypertrichosis, and color changes, and emphasizes their generally reversible nature if the causative drug is discontinued.

This case report describes a patient with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis who developed hypertrichosis and eyelash trichomegaly, likely linked to cyclosporine-A and prednisolone therapy, with expected resolution after stopping treatment.
