Altering maternal cortisol during pregnancy can improve wool growth in Merino sheep.
research Profiling Steroid and Thyroid Hormones with Hair Analysis in a Cohort of Women Aged 25 to 45 Years Old
The method can measure multiple hormones in women's hair and may help identify hormone-related health issues.
research Responses of Prolactin and Hair Growth to Selection for Age at Puberty in Angus Cattle
Selecting Angus cattle for earlier puberty lowers prolactin levels but doesn't affect hair growth.
research Keep Quiet—How Stress Regulates Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Stress hormone corticosterone suppresses hair growth by affecting stem cell activity and Gas6 protein expression.

The hair coat disorder in Schipperkes is similar to Alopecia X and involves increased androstenedione levels and hair cycle arrest.
research Corticosterone Inhibits GAS6 to Govern Hair Follicle Stem-Cell Quiescence
Stress hormone stops a growth signal and keeps hair stem cells inactive, reducing hair growth.
research New Frontiers in Human Hair Follicle Neuroendocrinology
Human scalp hair follicles can produce and respond to several hormones, affecting hair growth and pigmentation.
research An Adult With Hair Loss: A Rare Case of Non-Classical 3β Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Deficiency
A woman's hair loss and other symptoms were due to a rare hormone deficiency treatable with steroids.
research The Effect of Drugs on Hair
Drugs can change hair growth and this is important because it can upset people.
research Hormonal Parameters in Androgenetic Hair Loss in Males
Men with male pattern hair loss have different levels of certain hormones compared to men without hair loss.
research Co-Secretion of Testosterone and Cortisol by a Functional Adrenocortical Oncocytoma
A woman's rare adrenal tumor caused high testosterone and cortisol levels, which normalized after the tumor was removed.
research Understanding Causes of Hair Loss in Women
The conclusion is that hair loss in women is caused by a mix of hormonal, environmental, and genetic factors, and treatments should target these various causes.
research Simultaneous LC-MS/MS Quantification of Glucocorticoids, Melatonin, and Its Metabolites in Hair

research Beard Hair Density Increase: A Possible Role of Topical Tretinoin Application?
Topical tretinoin may increase beard hair density.
research Can Extra-Adrenal Cortisol Secretion Occur in an Adrenalectomized Patient?
A patient produced cortisol after adrenalectomy, possibly due to residual tissue or other body parts making steroids.
research Analysis of Steroids and Binding Proteins in the Blood of Women with Androgenetic Alopecia
Women with androgenetic alopecia have normal levels of most blood steroids and binding proteins, but higher dehydroepiandrosterone. Some also have low "sex hormone-binding globulin" and "corticosteroide-binding globulin" capacity, and high "free androgen index" and "free cortisol index". Diane treatment can normalize these levels and improve hair conditions.
research Aldosterone- and Cortisol-Cosecreting Adrenal Adenoma, Ovarian Hyperthecosis, and Breast Cancer
The conclusion is that thorough investigation of hypertension and hormonal dysfunctions is important, and there may be a link between these conditions and cancer.
research Neuroimmunology of Stress: Skin Takes Center Stage
Stress can worsen skin and hair conditions by affecting the skin's immune response and hormone levels.
research Ketoconazole Therapy for Women with Acne and/or Hirsutism
Ketoconazole reduced hair growth and improved acne in women, but caused side effects needing careful monitoring.
research Retrospective Evaluation of Sex Hormones and Steroid Hormone Intermediates in Dogs with Alopecia
Most dogs with alopecia had higher than normal levels of certain hormones, but hair loss might not always be linked to these hormone changes.
research Hormonal Basis of Male and Female Androgenic Alopecia: Clinical Relevance
Hair loss in men and women is linked to high stress hormone levels and other hormonal imbalances, suggesting treatments should be customized to each person's hormones.
