Amenorrhea, or the absence of periods, should be evaluated by age 15 or within five years of early breast development, and is most commonly caused by conditions like polycystic ovary syndrome and hypothalamic amenorrhea.

In this study, adipose-derived stem cells from superficial adipose tissue showed higher regenerative potential, and more macrophages were found in superficial than deep adipose tissue, potentially influenced by skin microbiota.

This study found that adrenal hormones appear to inhibit winter fur growth onset in mink and may affect the duration of inactivity between fur growth periods.

This study indicates that targeting the PTH/PTHrP receptor may potentially stimulate hair growth, particularly for chemotherapy-induced alopecia, as observed in hairless and cyclophosphamide-treated mice.

In this study, using light masks to extend photoperiod was effective for maintaining the summer coat in horses and accelerating shedding in outdoor horses, but timing was crucial for success.

This review discusses the pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical features, histology, and treatment of frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight its increasing incidence and challenging nature.

This study found that AHCC significantly reduced alopecia caused by Ara-C in neonatal rats and improved liver function affected by 6-MP and MTX in mice.

Gene therapy shows promise for enhancing physical traits but faces ethical, safety, and regulatory challenges.

This study found that topical cepharanthine increased IGF-I production in human dermal papilla cells, suggesting it may stimulate hair growth and be a promising treatment option for androgenetic alopecia.

This research indicates that KCED-1 and KCED-2 effectively induce adiponectin production in human subcutaneous fat, which may promote hair growth on the scalp.

This study details the characteristics of lipedematous alopecia and lipedematous scalp, two rare scalp conditions, suggesting they may represent different stages of the same disorder, with lipedematous scalp lacking the hair loss seen in lipedematous alopecia.

This study found that normal ALT levels in women of reproductive age are linked with metabolic and androgenic abnormalities, suggesting ALT could be used beyond liver disease diagnoses.

In this study, insulin resistance was observed at similar rates in non-obese women with idiopathic hirsutism, those with PCOS, and healthy controls.

Stress may affect hair growth by influencing hair follicle development and could contribute to hair loss.

This review discusses the unique challenges of diagnosing and managing polycystic ovarian syndrome in adolescents and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that treating hair with 1 M sodium hydroxide increases its self-friction coefficient, suggesting potential applications in forming fine frictional fibers for medical uses.

In this study, a specific SNP in the A2M gene of Murrah buffaloes was significantly associated with increased fat production and higher fat and protein percentages in milk.

This report describes the first known case of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis in a woman under 40, associated with both metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This study found a 21-fold increased risk of metabolic syndrome associated with a higher waist-hip ratio in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting the need for focused management in obese patients.

This study observed that dermatologists and physicians who frequently treat male pattern hair loss have practices and attitudes that may create a favorable care environment compared to less experienced physicians.

In this randomized study, BAY 1158061, a prolactin receptor antibody, was found to be safe, well-tolerated, and exhibited low immunogenicity in healthy postmenopausal women, but had no effect on serum prolactin levels compared to placebo.

This study found that prolactin can induce premature catagen in both mouse and human hair follicles and suggests that targeting prolactin and TGF-β receptors may be promising for treating androgenetic alopecia.

In this case study, a 16-year-old boy with alopecia areata experienced complete hair regrowth after 4 months of Ayurvedic treatments, including Shamana Chikitsa and Raktamokshna, with no adverse effects reported.

This study found that women with PCOS had significantly higher hair cortisol concentrations, suggesting hyperactivation of the HPA axis may affect metabolic and inflammatory markers in those with elevated cortisol levels.

This case report describes a 19-year-old girl with PCOS who experienced symptom improvement, including normalized menstruation, after two months of Ayurvedic treatment.

This review examines skin conditions found in notable world leaders post-World War II and discusses their potential impacts on political life, reporting no new clinical findings.

This review discusses autoimmune skin disorders, including lupus erythematosus and scleroderma, and their common treatments, reporting no new clinical results.

Pregnancy can cause skin changes and affect existing skin conditions, with limited treatment options due to the need for fetal safety.

This study concluded that catgut embedment combined with moxibustion and bloodletting may be more effective than finasteride for treating androgenic alopecia, possibly due to reductions in testosterone and the testosterone/estradiol ratio.
