This study found that the severity of female pattern hair loss in premenopausal women was associated with clinical signs of hyperandrogenism, such as hirsutism and acne, but not with biochemical parameters.

This study examined the effectiveness of FT-Raman spectroscopy for detecting polymorphism in Lamivudine and Finasteride, highlighting its advantages over other methods due to its capability to provide sharp, well-resolved spectral bands and reduced sampling issues.

This review highlights significant health risks associated with anabolic-androgenic steroid use in women and reports no new research results, emphasizing the need for further understanding of their effects on female physiology.

This study found that Ficus benghalensis leaf extracts reduced the activity of 5 α-reductase II and promoted hair growth in rabbits by elongating the hair follicle's anagen phase, suggesting potential for treating hair loss.

This study demonstrated that a finasteride-loaded proniosome significantly enhanced transfollicular delivery and hair growth in mice without causing skin irritation, with effects comparable to a 2% minoxidil solution.

This source reports that testosterone therapy may mildly improve sexual desire in women with sexual dysfunction but lacks long-term safety data and cannot be widely recommended, as no formulations are approved for women in most countries.

The researchers reported a high incidence of hyperuricemia in women with PCOS, with positive correlations to testosterone, SHBG, HOMA-IR, and LDL levels, but negative correlations to HbA1C, FPG, and FSI.

In this study, researchers found that women with telogen effluvium had lower MCV/RDW ratios, MPV, and ferritin levels compared to healthy controls, suggesting iron deficiency's involvement in this chronic hair loss condition.

The study found that metformin alone most effectively reduced insulin resistance in Iraqi women with PCOS, but combining metformin with finasteride produced greater improvements in insulin sensitivity markers.

This study established reference values for nine fertility hormones important in diagnosing and monitoring PCOS in Pakistani and other subcontinent populations.

This review highlights the potential of coffee silverskin's bioactive compounds in combating skin aging and related conditions, suggesting it as a promising natural ingredient for cosmetics due to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging properties.

This review explores the applicability of the current PCOS diagnostic criteria, highlighting the need to reassess these criteria in light of new evidence on the disorder's heterogeneity and potential subtypes.

This study found that FucoPol hydrogel membranes can effectively deliver model drugs such as caffeine and diclofenac sodium via different loading methods, with notable mechanical and release properties, suggesting their potential as platforms for topical drug delivery.

This study reported that discarded squid ink was used to develop a high-performance, environmentally friendly hair dye that offers a stable deep black color, UV protection, and preserves hair structure, while showing excellent biosafety in lab tests.

This study found that global PCOS prevalence in adolescents is 6.3% under new 2023 guideline criteria, compared to 9.8% using Rotterdam criteria; excluding PCOM may prevent over-diagnosis, while recognizing irregular cycles or hyperandrogenism helps avoid under-diagnosis by identifying at-risk individuals for further monitoring.

This research review found that spironolactone can significantly improve acne severity more effectively than a placebo, with 73.3% of patients reporting satisfaction despite a 26.7% rate of adverse events among the 1,548 participants studied.

In this review, researchers explore the roles of lactoferrin in skin and hair health, highlighting its potential anti-inflammatory and regenerative benefits despite the lack of well-controlled clinical trials for hair-specific outcomes.

In this study, among Iraqi women with hirsutism, researchers found no significant differences in hormonal markers compared to healthy controls, but identified a strong association between the modified Ferriman-Gallwey (mFG) score and hirsutism, highlighting the mFG score's utility in diagnosing the condition.

In this study, five women with minoxidil-induced hypertrichosis achieved complete hair removal using a calcium thioglycolate depilatory agent, with minimal or no skin irritation.

This study presents a case report of a 25-year-old woman with PCOS who experienced irregular menstruation, weight gain, and depression, highlighting improvements in her symptoms and menstrual regularity after three and a half months of treatment with Ayurvedic medicine and yoga.

In this study, researchers formulated a pomade using papaya seed oil and virgin coconut oil at various concentrations and found it to be stable, non-irritating, and preferred by users, with the 7.5% concentration being most favored for providing shiny and moisturized hair.

In this study, a 3-month treatment with a 2940 nm Er:YAG laser, combined with conventional therapy, effectively reduced microfibrosis around hair follicles and increased hair growth in the anagen stage among 85 men with androgenetic alopecia.

This study presents computational modeling and experimental analysis of the HGT protein KAP8.1, identifying key structural features that may influence hair's response to environmental conditions.

This study found that tight junctions extend to the most superficial layer of the stratum granulosum in human skin, challenging previous claims of their limited presence in the epidermis.

This study evaluated a pumpkin seed oil hair gel formulated with various additives and found that the F3 formulation had promising physicochemical properties and non-irritant characteristics for potential use in treating androgenetic alopecia.

This review highlights that exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells, particularly those enriched with circ-Ash1l, can inhibit ferroptosis and reduce UVB-induced skin aging by delivering GPX4-promoting signals to damaged cells, thus offering a potential regenerative therapy for photoaged skin.

Active oxygen species might be involved in skin tumor growth, but their exact role is unclear.

In this study, researchers extracted soluble keratin proteins from chicken feathers and found they maintain structural integrity with potential uses for damaged skin, exhibiting no irritative effects in ex vivo settings on hen's eggs.

This study documented that dermatophytosis was highly prevalent in Basra's cats, particularly affecting males and cats under nine months, with lesions most frequent on ears, face, and abdomen.

This study observed that androgenic hormone levels were higher in high school girls with PCOS phenotypes accompanied by menstrual disorders, particularly oligomenorrhea.
