In this study, researchers found that the evolutionary and structural features of the oFGF5 gene in sheep may influence hair follicle development and hair growth regulation.

This review summarizes the adverse effects associated with 5α‐reductase inhibitors, noting slightly increased rates of decreased libido, erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction, gynecomastia, depression, and anxiety, with further studies needed to explore symptom prevalence and persistence.

This study found that finasteride significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women with idiopathic hirsutism and PCOS, despite no changes in serum androgen levels.

This study found that recombinant human FGF9 expressed in Arabidopsis thaliana oil bodies significantly promoted the proliferation of NIH/3T3 cells.

This review discusses the characteristics and management options for female pattern hair loss, highlighting the unclear role of androgens and the psychosocial impact, and reports no new clinical results.

This study conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis but did not report results, aiming to clarify the unclear association between female pattern hair loss and polycystic ovary syndrome, along with potential links to altered fertility factors.

A feedback loop between LRH and RSL4 controls root hair growth in Arabidopsis.

In vitro, this study suggests that CRH may act as an autocrine hormone in human sebocytes, influencing lipid synthesis and potentially impacting skin disorders related to alterations in sebaceous lipid formation.

Flutamide alone is as effective as the combination with finasteride for treating hirsutism.

In this study, patients with female pattern hair loss had significantly lower serum levels of vitamin D and ferritin, which could be risk factors for the condition's development.

This study found that estetrol (E4) significantly prolonged the anagen phase and increased hair matrix keratinocyte proliferation in cultured human hair follicles, suggesting its potential as a treatment for female pattern hair loss.

In this study, researchers found that androgen receptor expression and AKR1C-mediated androgen inactivation, including AKR1C4, are prominent in scalp sebaceous glands, with AKR1C expression decreasing with age and differing by sex, suggesting these changes may impact hair follicle health as people age.

This case report describes a post-menopausal woman with severe hirsutism whose high testosterone levels decreased after gonadotropin suppression, indicating residual hormone-producing tissue responsive to gonadotropins.

This report presents a case of familial male-limited precocious puberty with a novel LHCGR gene mutation, where a boy responded well to treatment with bicalutamide and anastrozole.

This study found that the FOS gene may play a significant role in promoting hair follicle development in Tan sheep, with elevated expression during the Er-mao period.

This review discusses the potential of 4-azasteroids as 5α-reductase inhibitors for treating hirsutism, reporting their promising effects in animal studies but noting no clinical trials have been conducted yet.

This study suggests that finasteride is a safe and effective alternative therapy for women with hidradenitis suppurativa who have contraindications or intolerance to spironolactone.

This article reviews the clinical assessment of female pattern hair loss and discusses up-to-date treatments, highlighting oral minoxidil combined with oral spironolactone as a promising novel therapy. It emphasizes the crucial role of general practitioners in diagnosis, treatment planning, and managing associated psychosocial issues.

Finasteride helps treat frontal fibrosing alopecia, improving or stabilizing the condition in many patients.

This chapter reviews selective androgen receptor modulators, discussing their therapeutic potential beyond current androgen applications, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that SRD5a-3 is a highly efficient enzyme for converting hormones into androgens, with dutasteride being a much more potent inhibitor of SRD5a-3 than SRD5a-2.

This study found that RXR and RAR proteins were detectable in normal human skin, suggesting they may play a role in epidermal cell differentiation and hair and gland physiology.

This case report highlights the potential for laser hair reduction treatments to trigger Fox-Fordyce disease, a chronic skin disorder, and underscores the need for awareness and management strategies among patients and clinicians.

This study found that steroid reproductive hormones such as estradiol and testosterone can be preserved and analyzed in archaeological human hair, providing new insights into ancient health and fertility.

Thyroid-stimulating hormone affects hair follicles but doesn't change hair growth or color.

This study observed that in Mexico, Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia predominantly affects postmenopausal women, with an increased incidence in recent years, and highlights the challenge of early diagnosis to prevent irreversible hair loss.

This review concluded that finasteride may reduce hirsutism scores and hair diameter in women with hyperandrogenism, but concerns about teratogenicity and long-term safety make it a secondary treatment option.

This paper presents consensus guidelines for standardized diagnostic criteria and assessment methods for frontal fibrosing alopecia to improve clinical research and data collection globally.

This study suggests that post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction share potential etiopathogenetic mechanisms involving brain modulators, neurotransmitters, and gut microbiota, although more research is needed to understand these conditions fully.

This study observed that hirsute females displayed increased S-phase hair bulb cells and decreased G0/1-phase cells compared to healthy females, with a strong correlation between S-phase percentages and DHEA-S levels.
