The document concludes that proper diagnosis and FDA-approved treatments for different types of hair loss exist, but treatments for severe cases often fail and future improvements may focus on hair follicle stem cells.

Chemotherapy and bone marrow transplant can cause permanent hair loss.

Most treatments for Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia are ineffective, but early anti-inflammatory therapy may help and the condition may stabilize over time.

There have been major advances in diagnosing and treating hair loss over the last 30 years, with new drugs and improved hair transplant techniques.

Scalp areas that look normal in people with hair loss may still show signs of disease under a microscope.

Middle-aged women with chronic telogen effluvium experience increased hair shedding but usually don't get significantly thinner hair.

The conclusion is that exogen is a unique hair cycle phase and the new sampling method specifically targets this stage, which may help in future hair loss research.

The document concludes that clinicians should be aware of common hair and scalp disorders in women of African descent and that more research is needed to develop effective treatments.

Finasteride helps hair growth but stopping it causes faster hair loss.

Black women's unique hair characteristics and styling practices can lead to specific scalp conditions, which require early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.

Minoxidil foam 5% effectively treats hair loss in both frontal and vertex scalp regions.

The study found average numbers for different types of hair follicles in the scalp and observed differences between men and women, suggesting reasons for more common hair shedding in women.

The document provides a method to classify human hair growth stages using a model with human scalp on mice, aiming to standardize hair research.

Thai people's hair density decreases with age and varies by scalp area, but hair thickness stays the same regardless of age or scalp area.

Scalp hair grows at 0.37 mm/day, forearm hair at 0.18 mm/day, and thigh hair at 0.30 mm/day, with no significant differences found in people with certain hair conditions.

Using both vertical and transverse sections for alopecia biopsies improves diagnosis without extra cost.

Sunlight worsens hair loss; protect scalp.

Two teenage brothers had a rare, treatment-resistant form of female-pattern hair loss with unusual scalp changes.

The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.

The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of hair and scalp tissue, considering both clinical and microscopic features.

FAPD and possibly CCCA may be AGA subtypes, and treatments combining antiandrogens, hair growth agents, hair transplants, and anti-inflammatories could be effective.

Androgenetic alopecia involves genetics, hormones, and can be treated with medications or surgery.

Aging alone rarely causes significant hair loss; hormones are a bigger factor.

AGA affects many, progresses differently, and early treatment is crucial.

Trichotillometry is a reliable method to measure hair strength and assess hair loss treatments.
