The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires good teamwork between skin doctors and lab experts.
research Androgens and Alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research Pharmacologic Inhibition of JAK-STAT Signaling Promotes Hair Growth
Blocking JAK-STAT signaling can lead to hair growth.
research Estrogens and the Skin
Estrogen loss during menopause worsens skin health, but hormone replacement therapy may improve it, though more research is needed.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma in Dermatology: Boon or Bane?
Platelet-rich plasma might help with hair growth and skin conditions, but more research is needed to prove its effectiveness and safety.
research Short-Term Combined Treatment With Liraglutide and Metformin Leads to Significant Weight Loss in Obese Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Previous Poor Response to Metformin
Combining liraglutide and metformin helps obese women with PCOS who didn't lose weight on metformin alone to lose more weight.
research Function and Underlying Mechanisms of Seasonal Color Molting in Mammals and Birds: What Keeps Them Changing in a Warming World?
