In this study, an ultra-low dose combination of estradiol and dydrogesterone significantly reduced hot flushes and improved health-related quality of life among a multi-ethnic population of postmenopausal women, with no notable difference in serious adverse events compared to placebo.

In this study, researchers using Mendelian randomization found a potential causal relationship between the gut microbiome and alopecia areata, with 16 gut microbial taxa showing links to the condition, though reverse causation results were not statistically significant.

This study found that females exposed to high cumulative doses of cyproterone acetate had a 6–20 fold increased risk of developing meningiomas compared to those on lower doses.

This case report discusses a postmenopausal woman whose hyperandrogenism and metabolic symptoms improved significantly after the surgical removal of an ovarian Leydig cell tumor, confirmed post-operatively.

This study found that while hormone replacement therapy can improve skin aging in menopausal women, inconsistent findings and a lack of robust clinical trials mean it isn't recommended purely for skin benefits.

In this Mendelian randomization study, shortened leukocyte telomere length was associated with an increased risk of androgenetic alopecia, but no causal relationship was found with alopecia areata.

This study found that mental rotation and neuroticism demonstrated curvilinear relationships with hair loss, suggesting that dihydrotestosterone levels might affect spatial cognition and personality traits in men.

This systematic review of Mendelian randomization studies reports that autoimmune thyroid disease is associated with increased risk for numerous health conditions, including coronary atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, while decreasing risks for others, such as lung cancer.

The study was retracted.

Certain bacteria may influence alopecia areata risk, but skin bacteria don't mediate gut-skin effects.

In this study, a mixed-methods survey of 357 balding men revealed that baldness is structurally stigmatized, with many participants experiencing distress and using treatments to combat it; others resisted stigma and expressed minimal distress.

Warts in HIV-positive men can have serious abnormal cell growth, needing careful analysis and treatment to prevent cancer.

Asthma may increase the risk of alopecia areata.

This study found that oligo-amenorrhea/menstrual irregularity in women is associated with an increased risk of overall cardiovascular disease, coronary heart disease, and myocardial infarction, while evidence linking hyperandrogenism or polycystic ovaries to cardiovascular disease remains mixed or unexplored.

Menopause often leads to lower sexual desire and discomfort during sex, but treatment should be personalized and only if it bothers the woman.

The document concludes that individualized treatment and lifestyle changes are important for managing menopause symptoms and health risks.

This study offers genetic evidence supporting a causal relationship between thyroid dysfunction and alopecia areata, which may help in managing and treating AA patients.

This study found no significant differences in hair growth between two formulas of hair tonic from meniran extract, one with a menthol enhancer, despite variations in hair length and weight measurements.

This review discusses chronic telogen effluvium, focusing on the potential role of hormonal fluctuations and circadian control genes, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the varied clinical presentations and management challenges of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome across different life stages, reporting no new clinical findings.

This study presents a new survey instrument that was cognitively tested for understanding menstrual cycle characteristics and androgen excess, including hirsutism, alopecia, and acne.

In this study, researchers used Mendelian randomization to find a significant genetic association between rheumatoid arthritis and an increased risk of alopecia areata, suggesting RA patients should be vigilant for potential AA development.

This article discusses the MendelVar webserver, which integrates Mendelian disease data with GWAS findings to prioritize candidate genes for complex traits and reports no new experimental results.

This study found that lotion containing ethanolic extract of Phyllanthus niruri promoted hair growth in rats, with the addition of 1% menthol enhancing this effect compared to the extract alone.

This study found that lotion containing ethanolic extract of Phyllanthus niruri and 1% menthol enhanced hair growth in white Wistar rats more than a formula without menthol, although not significantly.

In this study, Myoinositol, an insulin sensitizer, was reported to improve menstrual irregularities and skin problems in cases of polycystic ovary syndrome.

This report describes a unique case of an ovarian Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor with estrogenic symptoms of menorrhagia, which is unusual given the typical androgenic manifestations.

Finasteride works for male hair loss only.

Men have worse COVID-19 outcomes than women due to genetic and hormonal differences.

This Mendelian randomization study suggests possible bidirectional causal links between alopecia and sleep characteristics, but findings require cautious interpretation due to multiple testing, highlighting the need for further research to explore underlying mechanisms and broader applicability.
