April 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that the natural estrogen Estetrol (E4) may promote hair follicle growth and prevent miniaturization, suggesting its potential as a treatment for hair loss disorders.
February 2023 in “Han'gug miyong haghoeji/Journal of the Korean society of cosmetology” This study observed that using an aroma shampoo containing essential oils for 4 weeks improved hair density and number in the occipital area, unlike a general shampoo used by the control group, which led to decreased hair number and thickness in the parietal area.
November 2022 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that ESR1 gene polymorphisms may be linked to hormonal imbalances in young women with hyperandrogenism, potentially affecting bone mineral density indirectly.
November 2022 in “Journal of the Endocrine Society” In this case study, a woman with high 25(OH)D levels and persistent symptoms showed decreased parathormone after transdermal estrogen therapy, highlighting the importance of assessing both parathormone and estrogen levels in similar patients.
October 2022 in “Journal of the ASEAN Federation of Endocrine Societies” This study found that GnRH-a treatment or orchiectomy, which required significantly lower doses of oral estradiol valerate, were more effective than anti-androgens like spironolactone and finasteride in achieving target hormone levels in transgender females in India.
October 2022 in “The Egyptian Journal of Hospital Medicine” In this study, serum omentin-1 levels were higher in females with idiopathic hirsutism compared to those with hirsutism and polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting it may help distinguish between these conditions.
The serum with these ingredients may help reduce hair loss and promote growth.
Linalool in personal care products may worsen frontal fibrosing alopecia by damaging hair follicle stem cells and triggering harmful immune responses.
This study suggests that bovine and fish-derived collagen peptides may help maintain or prolong the hair growth phase and balance hair follicle stem cell populations, potentially benefiting aging and hair loss conditions like androgenetic alopecia.
COVID-19 patients with hair loss experienced more cognitive issues and these issues were linked to higher levels of depression, anxiety, and stress.
August 2022 in “Regenerative Medicine” This review discusses the potential esthetic applications and regenerative properties of adipose-derived stem cells but reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the need for further research to establish efficacy.
June 2022 in “Journal of Experimental Biology and Agricultural Sciences” This study found that steroid hormones influence the quality indicators of fresh and cryopreserved stallion sperm, with testosterone negatively correlated with motility and estradiol positively correlated with survival rate.
April 2022 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study established the R-7 dermal papilla cell line, which retained essential characteristics of primary cells without undergoing malignant transformation, suggesting its potential for future hair research.
March 2022 in “Annals of Bariatric Surgery” This study found that protein supplements combined with micronutrients reduced hair loss more effectively after sleeve gastrectomy in women, compared to routine multivitamins alone.
February 2022 in “Brazilian Journal of Health Review” In this study, researchers found that among women with frontal fibrosing alopecia and hyperpigmented facial lesions, most cases were diagnosed with lichen planus pigmentosus, while some were identified as melasma or drug-induced.
This study observed that most age estimation tests in the Amazon region of Brazil are conducted for civil cases, highlighting the importance of thorough clinical and dental examinations in the absence of radiographic imaging.
December 2021 in “Benha Journal of Applied Sciences” This study found that plasma Claudin 3 levels were linked to alopecia areata severity among patients compared to healthy controls.
November 2021 in “Research Square (Research Square)” This study found that human hair follicle dermal papilla cells grown in a 3D model influenced hair growth and immune pathways more effectively than those grown in a 2D culture.
August 2021 in “Research, Society and Development” In this study, intradermal therapy with Minoxidil, growth factors, and vitamins showed a slight advantage in increasing hair volume over a combination with Finasteride for androgenic alopecia.
