Alopecia Areata is linked to a higher risk of several diseases, which vary with age and sex.

Women with PCOS who have low SHBG are more likely to have low good cholesterol and metabolic syndrome.

Sleep, testosterone levels, and a specific enzyme activity affect skin oil production in women.

Serum formulations were better at delivering molecules to the hair bulb than nanoparticles.

Cholesterol sulfate buildup due to a genetic mutation disrupts the skin barrier, leading to the scaling skin seen in X-linked ichthyosis.

A new gene, JMJD1C, may affect testosterone levels in men.

Testosterone with or without finasteride doesn't improve thinking skills in older men with low testosterone.

Women with PCOS have higher levels of a certain growth factor, which can be reduced by taking metformin.

Men with early hair loss have lower vitamin D levels.

Western diet may cause male pattern baldness; low glycemic diet with magnesium could help.

Disrupted cholesterol production impairs hair follicle stem cells, leading to hair loss.

Terbinafine quickly builds up in skin and hair, staying effective for over 3 weeks.

Young girls whose mothers have PCOS may have higher activity of a specific enzyme that could lead to developing PCOS later.

People with alopecia areata have higher insulin resistance.

Women with PCOS have lower adiponectin hormone levels and are more likely to have insulin resistance.

Women with hair loss have higher heart disease risk and unhealthy cholesterol levels.

Balding men, especially young ones, may have higher risk of heart issues and diabetes; check cholesterol levels.

Long-term use of dutasteride for enlarged prostate may worsen blood sugar, cholesterol, and erectile dysfunction.

Increased PPARGC1α relates to hair thinning in common baldness.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

Some people experience severe, long-lasting side effects from fluoroquinolone antibiotics, leading to the recommendation of limited use and increased awareness of these risks.

JAK inhibitors for alopecia areata are linked to minor side effects like headache and acne, but not to an increased risk of serious adverse events.
