Minoxidil treats hair loss, promotes growth, has side effects, and has recent patents.
research Skin Connective Tissue and Aging
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Skin Aging
After menopause, women lose a lot of skin collagen, but estrogen replacement might improve skin health.
research A New Catalyst for Organic Synthesis: Mercuric Triflate
Mercuric triflate is an effective catalyst for various organic reactions, working well at room temperature with high yields.
research Multi-Therapies in Androgenetic Alopecia: Review and Clinical Experiences
Multiple treatments work best for hair loss.
research A Discourse on Human Hair Fibers and Reflections on the Conservation of Drug Molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research The Effect of Menopause on the Skin and Other Connective Tissues
Menopause significantly reduces skin collagen, leading to thinner, less elastic skin, and hormone replacement may help but requires careful consideration.
