This report describes two male patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, a lymphocytic scarring hair loss condition often seen in postmenopausal women, highlighting its occurrence in men and its manifestation around the frontal hairline and other body areas.

The authors concluded that finasteride and dutasteride might have serious side effects, including persistent sexual dysfunction for some, necessitating further research and vigilant risk-benefit analysis.

This study found that neonatal administration of finasteride reduced sensitivity to alcohol's motor-stimulating effects and increased preference for novelty and initial alcohol consumption in rats, suggesting a role in alcohol vulnerability.

This paper reviews the potential link between finasteride's adverse effects and factors like hand preference and sexual orientation, emphasizing the need for personalized therapeutic approaches in treating male androgenic alopecia.

This case study reports on a 44-year-old male exhibiting persistent neuropsychiatric symptoms described as Post-Finasteride Syndrome after discontinuing long-term finasteride use, highlighting the ongoing debate regarding its classification as a true disease process.

This study found that lower urinary tract symptoms were linked to reduced functional ability in older adults, with distinct associations for nocturia in men and frequency, urgency, and overactive bladder in women.

This report describes a 55-year-old African woman with a 4-year history of frontotemporal alopecia and total eyebrow loss, who experienced scalp itching and had unsuccessfully undergone hair transplantation.

This case report documents two postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia whose hair loss stabilized after treatment with topical corticosteroids, one also using minoxidil.

This study found that diffuse and pseudo-fringe sign patterns are common in Asian patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, and that treatments combining antiandrogens or antimalarials with topical therapy are effective.

This case report describes a 58-year-old male patient with alopecia frontal fibrosante in areas also affected by vitiligo, highlighting a possible association with autoimmune disorders.

This article reviews how various hormones may affect female sexual function and provides recommendations for diagnosing and treating endocrinologic sexual difficulties, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that cerebrospinal fluid levels of the neurosteroids allopregnanolone and pregnanolone correlate negatively with PTSD and negative mood symptoms, with potential sex-specific differences in synthesis enzyme blocks.

This prospective study in Morocco reported on 20 cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia, finding that dermoscopy played a key role in diagnosing and managing the condition, which can increasingly affect premenopausal women.

This review assesses the potential of dutasteride as a promising treatment for ALS due to its reported neuroprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects, but emphasizes that clinical studies are needed for confirmation.

Early diagnosis of frontal fibrosing alopecia is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.

In this study, patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia showed more actinic damage than control subjects, suggesting sunscreen use by these patients may be a consequence rather than a cause of the condition.

This article discusses the relationship between sedentary behavior and chronic disease, proposing that "physical inactivity disease" may be a non-permissive brain disorder with various physiological effects, but it reports no new research results.

This study found that augmenting or reducing allopregnanolone activity in the BNST affected contextual fear expression in rats, suggesting sex differences in anxiety may be linked to neuroactive steroid regulation.

THAP1 gene changes do not affect DYT1 dystonia; finasteride may help reduce tics and OCD in Tourette syndrome.

This study reports two cases of frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal women, suggesting it as a variant of lichen planopilaris due to similar histological findings yet distinct clinical presentation.
