December 2025 in “Biomedicines” In this study, researchers identified two person-centered sexual function profiles among women, linked to physical and psychological factors, with PCOS showing greater, though not significant, presence in the dysfunction profile. The dysfunction was associated with higher adiposity and body-image distress.
September 2023 in “Pharmaceutics” In this study, the authors developed a medicated face mask using electrospun fibers to deliver the active compound Eflornithine hydrochloride for managing hirsutism. The mask showed promising drug release characteristics, a high safety profile, and reduced hair growth in mice.

December 2004 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” This study observed that frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal women involves selective follicular inflammation, and finasteride treatment may slow disease progression, suggesting a potential androgen-related component.
8 citations
,
December 2017 in “Journal of The American Academy of Dermatology” This correspondence discusses the diagnostic criteria for frontal fibrosing alopecia but reports no new research findings, agreeing with many previously suggested criteria.
