July 2026 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” This study found no causal relationship between obesity and androgenetic alopecia, suggesting that their previously observed link is likely due to confounding factors.
June 2026 in “Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery” This study explored professionals' insights on eyebrow transplantation, finding that while the procedure can enhance appearance and confidence, it also carries risks such as potential complications and costs, emphasizing the need for thorough pre-operative consultations.
April 2026 in “Frontiers in Medicine” In this study, young female medical students at King Saud University reported a higher prevalence of physician-diagnosed PCOS compared to similar Western populations, and hirsutism was notably associated with the condition, highlighting the need for early screening and health education.
February 2026 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” This study found that a family history of androgenetic alopecia and specific trichoscopic signs are strong predictors of female pattern hair loss, leading to a nomogram model for risk prediction.
January 2026 in “Medicina” This study conducted among medical students in Saudi Arabia found a 37.2% prevalence of premature hair graying and associated it with smoking, a keto diet, hair coloring, and family history, while suggesting that lifestyle changes may reduce its impact.
This study found that women with genetic hair loss experienced significant improvements in hair density, count, and thickness when treated with both Rehmannia root extract and microneedling therapy, with the combination showing the greatest benefits compared to each treatment alone.
July 2025 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” This study found a bidirectional causal association between major depression disorder and alopecia areata, but no association between mental disorders and androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a focus on mental health strategies for alopecia areata management.
June 2025 in “Bioinformation” This study found that nearly one in four young adults in a dermatology clinic had premature greying of hair, influenced by genetic factors, lifestyle, and micronutrient levels.
June 2025 in “JOURNAL OF CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC RESEARCH” In this observational study, researchers found a strong association between higher alcohol and smoking indices and increased severity of male androgenetic alopecia.
May 2025 in “International Journal of Women’s Dermatology” This study found that patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia were less likely to report treatment improvement and more commonly associated with certain hairstyling practices compared to those with other scarring alopecias.
April 2025 in “International Journal For Multidisciplinary Research” This study explores hypertrichosis, a condition of excessive hair growth, highlighting its classification, diagnostic methods, and potential treatments. The authors emphasize the importance of individualized approaches and further genetic research to enhance treatment options for this primarily cosmetic issue that can signal systemic diseases.
March 2025 in “Human Genetics and Genomics Advances” This study found that genetic predictions of male pattern baldness from European populations do not generalize well to African populations, highlighting significant differences in genetic architecture between them.
February 2025 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” This study suggests that androgenetic alopecia may increase the risk of developing depression, but depression does not significantly contribute to the onset of androgenetic alopecia.
November 2024 in “International Journal of Women’s Dermatology” In this study of a Colombian sample, the researchers found that while sex, alopecia location, and symptoms aligned with global reports, age at presentation, tobacco use, and use of wigs and dyes were different from those noted in other countries.
October 2024 in “Skin Appendage Disorders” This study found that lichen planopilaris is associated with several environmental factors, such as stress and hair dye use, as well as thyroid disorders and genetic components.
August 2024 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” This study investigates the potential causal relationship between hypothyroidism and hair loss conditions like alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia, noting that previous studies have reported inconsistent findings. Results are not yet detailed.
July 2024 in “Clinical Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology” Certain immune cells are linked to non-scarring hair loss, suggesting potential for immune-targeted treatments.
April 2024 in “Human genomics” This study identified MPB susceptibility genes and potential drug candidates that may help uncover molecular mechanisms and address male-pattern baldness.
December 2023 in “Journal of Korean Society of Beauty Cultral Arts” This study observed that among hair loss patients in Daejeon and Chungcheong, female pattern hair loss was most common, scalp massage was the preferred management behavior, and satisfaction was above average except for lower satisfaction with folk remedies.
May 2014 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” The project aimed to understand how genetic test results affect patients' actions and feelings in dermatology.
July 2019 in “International journal of contemporary medical research” This study found that dyslipidemia was more common in male patients with androgenetic alopecia than in controls, particularly among those with severe AGA, suggesting a higher risk of altered serum lipids.
January 2011 in “Journal of Diagnosis and Therapy on Dermato-venereology” This study found that female pattern hair loss may be influenced by genetic factors and hormonal changes, particularly in young adults, and identified specific dermoscopic features associated with the condition.
January 2009 in “Egyptian Journal of Medical Human Genetics” This study, conducted among Egyptians, found a borderline significant association between the Stul polymorphism of the androgen receptor gene and androgenetic alopecia in males, with higher androgen receptor expression in balding scalp areas.
July 2025 in “Pakistan Journal of Rehabilitation” This study observed that among Doctor of Physiotherapy students in Lahore, the prevalence of androgenetic alopecia was 55.6% in males and 60% in females, highlighting the need for better public education and early treatment strategies.
