Looking at skin can help find and treat serious diseases early.
research Baldness May Be Caused by the Weight of the Scalp: Gravity as a Proposed Mechanism for Hair Loss
Baldness might be caused by scalp weight pressing on hair follicles.
research Is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome a Sexual Conflict? A Review
The conclusion suggests that PCOS may persist due to genetic traits that, while harmful for female fertility, could have provided survival and reproductive benefits to males.
research A Case of Patchy Alopecia Areata Sparing Lesional Greying Hairs

research Formation of the Cornified Envelope
The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.
research Pathogenesis of Androgenetic Alopecia
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.
research Hair Loss (Alopecia or Baldness)
Baldness is often hereditary and linked to male hormones, becoming noticeable when half the hair is lost.
