This article argues that prolactin may have a role in sebaceous gland function and suggests it could be a potential target for treating skin conditions, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the possible impacts of prolactin on skin conditions like psoriasis, alopecia, and stress-related dermatoses, emphasizing the need for further research to explore its therapeutic potential.

In this review, the potential role of the hormone prolactin in skin biology and its implications for treating skin diseases and hair disorders are explored, with a focus on its stress-related impacts and possible immunomodulatory function in the context of COVID-19.

Oestrogen and thyrotropin-releasing hormone affect prolactin and its receptor in human skin and hair, suggesting new treatment options for related conditions.

This study found that women with hair loss had significantly higher free testosterone levels compared to those without hair loss.

This study found that metformin's effect on reducing prolactin levels is less pronounced in women with PCOS compared to control subjects, likely due to higher endogenous testosterone levels, despite improvements in insulin sensitivity in both groups after six months of treatment.

This article reviews the potential role of prolactin as a neuroendocrine modulator in skin biology and pathology, discussing its relevance for conditions such as psoriasis and hair growth, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review explores the complex endocrine functions of human skin and its role as a peripheral endocrine organ, but reports no new clinical results.

This review explores various hormone influences on hair growth and loss beyond androgens, noting that clinical hormone therapies for aging may impact hair due to associated hormone level reductions, but reports no new empirical results.

This study found that short-day photoperiod treatment in Shanbei white cashmere goats enhanced cashmere growth, increased secondary follicle density, and altered hormone levels and gene expression related to hair follicle development.

This study found that allopregnanolone has a bimodal effect on prolactin secretion in sheep, stimulating PRL mRNA expression but inhibiting hormone release under stress and pregnancy conditions.

This study reported that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had higher glypican-4 levels compared to controls, indicating its significant role in hormonal regulation associated with the condition.

This study found that women experiencing diffuse hair loss had significantly lower levels of plasma sex-hormone binding globulin compared to controls, while their testosterone levels remained normal.

This study found that increased hair growth from Cyclosporin A treatment is likely not due to hormonal changes.

This study found that women with pilonidal sinus disease had significantly higher prolactin levels compared to women without the disease, suggesting a possible link to its development.

This study found that among men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, treatment with the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride for three months significantly reduced levels of dihydrotestosterone and estradiol, hormones involved in prostate enlargement, without altering follicle-stimulating hormone or luteinizing hormone levels.

This review discusses the roles of hormonal pathways in regulating male sexual function, particularly highlighting the impact of testosterone, and reports no new research findings.

This study established reference values for nine fertility hormones important in diagnosing and monitoring PCOS in Pakistani and other subcontinent populations.

This study observed that individuals with hair loss had significantly higher levels of serum galanin, troponin, prolactin, and FSH, and lower levels of TSH, zinc, magnesium, copper, iron, and calcium compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential role of these biomarkers in hair loss.

This case report describes a unique instance where elevated prolactin levels from a pituitary adenoma were associated with hirsutism due to increased dihydrotestosterone, with treatment leading to normalization.

This review discusses the hormonal impact on hair growth and the relationship between endocrine disorders and hair changes, reporting no new clinical results.

In this study, treating prolactinoma with cabergoline normalized prolactin levels and affected some androgen-related parameters, but did not significantly improve hirsutism in affected women.

This study reported that women with polycystic ovary syndrome had significantly higher concentrations of oxytocin, testosterone, luteinizing hormone, prolactin, and follicle-stimulating hormone compared to healthy controls.

This study observed that Greek Caucasian women with PCOS had distinct serum hormone levels and a specific AKT2 gene SNP, which may play a role in the condition's characteristics.

This article reviews how sex hormones and their analogues are used to treat diseases like autoimmune disorders and cancer, and discusses potential applications in infectious and parasitic diseases, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, altering the photoperiod in goats increased hormone concentrations and improved hair follicle development and skin antioxidant capacity, suggesting that short photoperiods may create favorable conditions for cashmere growth.

This study observed that functional hyperprolactinemia in several women was associated with skin symptoms such as seborrhea, acne, and hair-related issues, resembling androgen-induced conditions.

This chapter discusses the role of hormones in regulating reproductive biology and outlines how the endocrine system, particularly the brain and pituitary gland, controls these hormonal processes.

This review discusses the complex interaction between androgens and hair follicle biology, highlighting the need for a better understanding to improve hirsutism treatments, but reports no new results.

This review discusses hormonal influences on hair growth and suggests that understanding hormone-gene interactions may improve treatment of hirsutism and alopecia, but reports no new clinical findings.
