Minoxidil, finasteride, and low-level laser light therapy are effective FDA-approved treatments for hair loss.

Androgenetic alopecia, or hair loss, is caused by a mix of genetics, hormones, and environment, where testosterone affects hair growth and causes hair to become smaller and grow for a shorter time.

Hair loss in men is mainly caused by hormones and genes, and while current treatments can slow it down, they can't fully stop it.

Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.

Early balding in men might be a male hormonal equivalent of polycystic ovaries syndrome in women.

Balding scalps show different gene expressions affecting hair growth compared to non-balding scalps.

The document suggests treating individuals with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia who show symptoms, especially those related to excess male hormones.

New genes found linked to balding, may help develop future treatments.

Oral antiandrogens effectively treat female hair loss, with better results in higher hair loss grades.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

Some hair loss can be treated, especially in women due to nutrition, but some types remain untreatable.

Androgens affect hair growth and shedding, with genetic and non-genetic factors influencing baldness.

The research suggests that SFRP2 and PTGDS proteins might be indicators of female pattern hair loss and could contribute to hair loss.

Smoking and drinking worsened hair loss in men with genetic hair loss, while eating and sleeping habits didn't; genetics played a bigger role than environment in hair loss.

AGA more common in men, Koreans have lower rates and unique patterns.

The paper suggests that hair loss might be caused by skull growth, not just DHT's effect on hair follicles, and calls for more research.

Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.

Different factors help diagnose and treat hair loss accurately.

Hair from balding and non-balding areas regrows similarly on mice.

Protease Nexin-1 is found in human hair growth cells and is affected by male hormones.

Human hair follicle cells can be turned into stem cells that may help clone hair for treating hair loss or burns.

Up to 50% of scalp hair can be lost before it appears thin, and treatment is only needed for hair loss caused by diseases or deficiencies.

Rare genetic variants in 125 genes are linked to male-pattern hair loss.

Men can have genetic risks for PCOS-related traits like obesity and diabetes.

Family members of North Indian women with PCOS have a high rate of metabolic syndrome.

The guide helps doctors diagnose hair problems by suggesting a thorough patient history, physical exams, and various diagnostic tools.

Researchers found potential new targets for treating melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers, and identified a possible cause and treatment for male pattern baldness and eczema.

Early balding linked to higher heart disease risk.

Aromatase gene variation may increase female hair loss risk.

Melanoma risk tools need improvement, a gene mutation causes a hair disorder that might be treated by managing cell stress, a potential therapy for a skin-ear disorder involves blocking cell channels, skin wrinkling may indicate lung aging regardless of smoking, and oxidative stress might contribute to common baldness.
