Albendazole can cause hair loss, and piroxicam can cause fixed drug eruption.

The document explains different hair and scalp conditions, including common hair loss after pregnancy or illness, drug-induced hair loss, hereditary excessive hair growth, patterned baldness, autoimmune hair loss, and permanent loss due to skin disease, with generally limited treatment options.

The woman's symptoms and tests suggest her adrenal glands are producing too many male hormones.

This report describes a rare case of ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome caused by a pheochromocytoma that unusually co-expresses both ACTH and corticotropin-releasing hormone.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

Women with pituitary adenomas often have reproductive issues, like irregular periods and trouble getting pregnant, but not always breast milk production without pregnancy.

This case study identified a probable pure testosterone-secreting ovarian tumor in a woman with increased facial hair and elevated testosterone levels, confirmed by histological examination as Leydig cells hyperplasia, which normalized testosterone and symptoms post-surgery.

This review discusses common skin appendage diseases, including their pathophysiology and treatments, but does not report new results.

This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

This index of Harper's Textbook of Pediatric Dermatology, Fourth Edition, provides no clinical results or new findings.

This case study reports the clinical features of triple H syndrome in a 25-year-old man, including ACTH deficiency, alopecia universalis, and anterograde amnesia, which were improved with hydrocortisone treatment.

This case report challenges the traditional view by documenting reversible vision loss following scalp injections of platelet-rich plasma, attributed to an inflammatory or microvascular event, treatable with corticosteroids.

This case report highlights how persistent hyperphosphatemia, albeit often overlooked, can precede clinical acromegaly symptoms in women, complicating diagnosis due to overlapping features with oral contraceptive use and polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study in Saudi female patients with hyperprolactinemia found that pituitary imaging is often indicated due to a high prevalence of pituitary anomalies, with prolactin levels showing moderate accuracy in predicting adenomas and a suggested cutoff level of >38.71 ng/mL for diagnosis.

This study suggests that persistent symptoms in patients with controlled functioning adenomas may indicate a coexisting PCOS diagnosis, highlighting the need for precise differentiation and timely management of these conditions.

This article discusses the role of human scalp hair follicles in neurohormone production and their model potential for studying neuroendocrine signaling, reporting no experimental results.

This article presents a unique case of post-partum panhypopituitarism and autoimmune conditions in a 37-year-old woman from Africa, emphasizing the need for early diagnosis and treatment to improve outcomes in similar settings.

This case study reports that immunotherapy with ipilimumab and nivolumab induced hypophysitis in a patient with renal cell carcinoma, emphasizing the need for careful monitoring of endocrine function in such treatments.

In this case study, researchers observed a 5.8-year-old male with peripheral precocious puberty due to a germ cell tumor, marked by elevated human chorionic gonadotropin levels. Treatment normalized hormone levels and arrested the puberty progression, highlighting melatonin's potential role in transitions to central precocious puberty.

This review discusses the role of DHEA in intracrinology, highlighting its impact on breast and prostate cancer treatment and potential as a menopause therapy, but reports no new research findings.

This article reviews the clinical complications and increased mortality risks associated with Cushing's syndrome but does not present new clinical data; it emphasizes the need for prompt treatment to mitigate these risks.

This review discusses the roles of androgens and estrogens in skin functions and disorders, and highlights the use of estrogen-progestin treatments and anti-androgens in managing hirsutism and acne, without reporting new results.

This review discusses guidelines for androgen use in women and concludes that more research is needed before recommending testosterone due to insufficient evidence on safety and efficacy.

The authors updated recommendations on diagnosing and treating women's sexual dysfunctions, emphasizing a comprehensive assessment approach, while noting the need for further multidisciplinary research.

Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.

This review discusses various forms of ichthyosis, including genetic and acquired types, detailing their characteristics, causes, and potential management strategies, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the complexities of interpreting thyroid function tests, highlighting the challenges primary care providers face due to patient demand and misinformation, but reports no new results.

This review explores the role of hormones in pilosebaceous units and associated skin disorders, focusing on androgen action, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study found that gonadal dysfunction is very common in premenopausal women with acromegaly and may be caused by hyperprolactinemia, GH/IGF-I excess, or tumor effects.

This study found that untreated men with coeliac disease exhibited androgen resistance, potentially linked to sexual dysfunction, which improved as intestinal health improved, a pattern not observed in other chronic illnesses.
