Hair ages due to genetics and environmental factors, leading to graying and thinning, with treatments available for some conditions.

The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.

Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.

Hair loss from alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia can be treated, but more effective and safer treatments are needed.

Hair ages and thins due to factors like inflammation and stress, and treatments like antioxidants and hormones might improve hair health.

Tofacitinib is a potential alternative treatment for alopecia totalis, especially in patients with a shorter duration of the condition and more preserved hair follicles, but the overall response rate is low.

Female hair loss is often hereditary and can be treated with medication, hair transplants, and lasers.

The JAK/STAT pathway is important in cell processes and disease, and JAK inhibitors are promising for treating related conditions.
