This study found that combining oral finasteride with topical minoxidil resulted in the greatest improvement in hair growth for male patients with androgenetic alopecia, compared to using any single treatment.

This study concluded that combined hormonal contraceptives containing desogestrel, drospirenone, or cyproterone acetate were associated with a higher risk of venous thromboembolism compared to those containing levonorgestrel.

This study found that dutasteride effectively improved urinary symptoms, reduced acute urinary retention risk, and decreased prostate volume in men with moderate to severe BPH over two years.

The study concluded that poly(propylene carbonate maleate) microspheres effectively encapsulated finasteride, achieving a biphasic release with prolonged drug release over 5-6 weeks in vitro.

This study found that Bokusoku extract and its compound pentagalloyl glucose inhibited testosterone metabolism and sebum synthesis, suggesting potential therapeutic use for androgen-related acne.

This study found that the MXD/HP-β-CD GEL formulation promoted greater hair growth and improved gene expression related to hair growth in male rats compared to MXD solution or control groups.

This study used a newly validated method to find that one-year finasteride treatment resulted in no significant differences in urinary androgen and prostaglandin levels between male pattern baldness patients and normal controls.

This review discusses the traditional medicinal uses of Eclipta alba (Bhringraj) in various systems, highlighting its phytochemical constituents and diverse biological activities, including potential benefits for hair growth, liver health, and immune function.

This review summarizes proposed pathophysiological mechanisms of postpartum depression, highlighting neuroendocrine and neurobiological changes, but reports no new findings and calls for integrated understanding of the disorder.

This article reviews the mechanisms by which minoxidil stimulates hair growth and reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the epidemiology, causes, diagnosis, and management of hirsutism in women, noting that effective treatment requires addressing the root cause as well as the hair growth.

This study found that prenatal exposure to finasteride in rats led to permanent changes in developmental endpoints like anogenital distance and nipple retention, which were predictive of further reproductive tract malformations.

This review discusses the potential of plant polyphenols to overcome multidrug resistance in various solid cancers and reports no new experimental results; further research is suggested.

This open-label study suggests that combining valproate, lamotrigine, and a benzodiazepine can significantly reduce the frequency of epileptic drop attacks in patients with generalized or multifocal epilepsies.

This review discusses various aspects of unwanted facial hair, including its psychological impact and current treatment options, and reports no new clinical results from the satellite symposium at the EHRS Meeting.

This review highlights the promising potential of microemulsions and nanoemulsions in (trans)dermal drug delivery, noting a gap in understanding their distinct mechanisms and composition-related effects on skin permeability, while emphasizing the limited clarity on mesostructures and cosolvent impacts.

In this study, researchers found that UV radiation causes hydroxy radicals to form cuticle holes specifically between the cuticle layers in wet hair, unlike random holes caused by Fenton's reaction.

This study found that finasteride treatment of male rats led to changes in their male offspring's testicular gene expression, potentially affecting sperm function in response to odorant-like signals.

This source redefines anti-aging medicine as "precision healthspan pharmacology," suggesting that rather than just treating diseases or accepting aging, pharmacology should focus on expanding functional capacity across various health domains, while emphasizing the importance of fundamental physiological and psychosocial health factors.

In this animal study, applying a combination of inositol-stabilized arginine silicate complex and magnesium biotinate promoted hair growth but not nail growth.

This study explored the use of spanlastic vesicles to enhance the delivery of bimatoprost for treating alopecia and found that a bimatoprost-loaded nanogel significantly increased skin drug accumulation and improved hair regrowth in a mouse model, outperforming both naive bimatoprost gel and commercial minoxidil formulations.

This article discusses the mechanisms of androgenetic alopecia and explores possible explanations for minoxidil's effect on hair growth but reports no new results.
