research The Use of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Aesthetic and Regenerative Medicine: A Comprehensive Review
Platelet-rich plasma may help in skin and hair treatments, and with muscle and joint healing, but more research is needed to fully understand its benefits and limitations.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Males: A Histopathological and Ultrastructural Study
Hair loss in males involves inflammation, collagen buildup, and follicle damage, with severity increasing with age and baldness duration.
research Systematic Review of Low-Level Laser Therapy for Adult Androgenic Alopecia
Low-level laser therapy can stimulate hair growth more effectively than fake devices, but patient satisfaction is similar for both. Results should be taken with caution due to small study sizes and differences between studies. More research is needed.
research 4-(Alkylthio)- and 4-(Arylthio)-Benzonitrile Derivatives as Androgen Receptor Antagonists for the Topical Suppression of Sebum Production
Chemicals called 4-(alkylthio)- and 4-(arylthio)-benzonitrile derivatives can potentially reduce oil production on skin, which could help treat conditions like acne and hair loss.
research Steady-State Pharmacokinetics of Oral Testosterone Undecanoate with Concomitant Inhibition of 5α-Reductase by Finasteride
Finasteride doesn't affect oral testosterone undecanoate, and high DHT levels may cause acne, prostate issues, and hair loss.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma: Applications in Cosmetic Medicine and Surgery
PRP might help with hair growth and skin rejuvenation, but more research is needed to prove its effectiveness.
research Use of Plasma Gel as Autologous Collagen Biostimulator with Simplified Technique: Case Report
Plasma gel and PRP treatments improve skin and hair with minimal side effects.

The man's fatigue and erectile dysfunction were improved by treating his obesity-related low testosterone without needing testosterone replacement.
research Regenerative Medicine of Epidermal Structures
New treatments for skin and hair repair show promise, but further improvements are needed.
research Evidence-Based and Potential Benefits of Metformin in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Comprehensive Review
Metformin helps with menstrual cycles and insulin levels in PCOS but is less effective for hair growth, diabetes prevention, and weight loss, and may improve fertility and reduce diabetes risk.
research The Distribution of Estrogen Receptor Beta Is Distinct to That of Estrogen Receptor Alpha and the Androgen Receptor in Human Skin and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).
research The Logic of Follicular Unit Transplantation
The document concludes that follicular unit transplantation offers more natural results and better graft survival than older hair transplant methods.
research Structural Study of Polymorphs and Solvates of Finasteride
Different forms of hair loss drug can improve effectiveness.
research Sex Steroid Synthesis in Human Skin In Situ: The Roles of Aromatase and Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein in the Homeostasis of Human Skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research Introducing Platelet-Rich Stroma: Platelet-Rich Plasma and Stromal Vascular Fraction Combined for the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
New treatment combining PRP and SVF increases hair density in 6-12 weeks for androgenetic alopecia patients.
research Management of Androgenetic Alopecia
Treat hair loss with finasteride, minoxidil, or surgery; consider side effects and severity.
research Guidelines of Care for Androgenetic Alopecia
Treat genetic hair loss early with FDA-approved medications and consider hair transplantation.
research Transplantation of Bone-Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal and Epidermal Stem Cells Contribute to Wound Healing with Different Regenerative Features
Bone-marrow and epidermal stem cells help heal wounds differently, with bone-marrow cells aiding in blood vessel formation and epidermal cells in hair growth.
research Treatment Strategies for Alopecia
Some treatments work for common baldness, but there's less evidence for other hair loss types, and more research is needed.
research A Hypothetical Pathogenesis Model for Androgenic Alopecia: Clarifying the Dihydrotestosterone Paradox and Rate-Limiting Recovery Factors
