September 2008 in “Fertility and Sterility” This study found that both men and women in infertile couples perceive using donor sperm as more likely to cause stress, marital problems, and a diminished sense of joint parenthood compared to donor eggs.
69 citations
,
April 2017 in “BMJ open” This study found that people with alopecia who worry about not wearing a wig reported higher levels of depression, anxiety, and social anxiety, although wig use increased social confidence for many.
June 2019 in “Poster presentations” This study found that low dose methotrexate did not increase hair loss in rheumatoid arthritis patients compared to healthy controls, and many patients even showed a reduction in hair fall over the short term.
January 2014 in “Dermatology Review” This review discusses the potential benefits of folate supplementation to mitigate methotrexate side effects in psoriasis patients and reports no new clinical data, suggesting further randomized controlled trials are needed.
