This review examines the role of androgens in cutaneous disorders and the potential therapeutic effects of different oral contraceptives, noting variations in individual responses and the influence of genetic and local factors but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the negative effects of androgenic disorders and highlights that newer oral contraceptives with less androgenic progestins may reduce these effects and improve compliance, but it reports no new results.

CUR-loaded micelles improve skin delivery and effects of curcumin for pain and infections.

A cosmetic procedure can lower the hairline by up to 10 cm, with high satisfaction but potential for temporary sensation loss and rare risks.

This article reviews the evidence regarding the role of sex hormones in occult hyperadrenocorticism and reports no new findings, highlighting the unproven nature of their involvement.

This study found that women with lower 2D:4D ratios and fewer middle-phalangeal hairs reported more adverse side effects from oral contraceptives, suggesting these features may predict hormonal contraceptive side effects.

This case report describes hair regrowth in a patient with alopecia totalis using fluocinolone acetonide cream applied under thin plastic films.

In this study, researchers demonstrated that follicular tight junctions in porcine skin form a barrier to nanoparticle penetration, particularly in upper regions, which supports its use as a model for human skin.

This study found that glycyrrhizic acid significantly reduced stem cell characteristics of dermal papilla cells by down-regulating key signaling pathways, suggesting potential use in suppressing unwanted hair growth.

In this study, treatment with flutamide combined with a low-dose oral contraceptive significantly improved hirsutism in women with polycystic ovarian disease who did not respond to oral contraceptive treatment alone.

This study discusses the expanding use of microneedles beyond transdermal drug delivery, highlighting recent advancements for treating hair loss, eye diseases, and oral disorders, while emphasizing future challenges in generalizing this technology.

This study found that in women with androgenetic alopecia, hair density is lower, and thin and non-growing hair are more common on the midscalp compared to the occiput.

This study found that wound healing after CO(2) laser resurfacing is faster with occlusive dressings, as they enhance cell migration from hair follicles, compared to untreated skin, which showed delayed re-epithelialization.

This review discusses the onset of menstruation and related challenges in young women, with a focus on primary amenorrhea, its diagnosis, and management strategies, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found significant differences in bcl-2 expression between areas of the scalp affected and unaffected by androgenetic alopecia, suggesting a uniform follicle population or synchronized follicular cycling in affected areas.

This study found that using a PEG-400/oleic acid mixture as an optical clearing agent enhanced the detection depth of particles in skin without causing dehydration, based on tests in rats and further testing in vivo.

This guideline discusses the evaluation and treatment of hirsutism in premenopausal women, recommending oral contraceptive pills or antiandrogens as initial therapies with weak support from low-quality evidence.

This study found that both combined therapy with goserelin and oral contraceptives, and oral contraceptives alone, significantly reduced hair diameter in severe hirsutism without a significant difference between treatments.

This study found that hair follicles can be used to generate pluripotent stem cells, which successfully differentiate into keratinocytes and may improve hair regeneration and grafting for medical applications.

This study found that ovariectomized and finasteride-treated rats showed significant tear film deficiency and downregulation of sex steroid receptors in ocular tissues, suggesting potential models for studying dry eye disorders.

This study introduces a new multimodal imaging technology to visualize and quantify cell dynamics in natural skin over long durations, demonstrated in GFP bone marrow-transplanted mice, to study dynamic skin regeneration.

In this study, optical coherence tomography was used to produce 3D images of human hair, revealing that after chemical treatment with ammonium thioglycolate, the main hair structures were not identifiable due to damage.

This review examines non-invasive methods for diagnosing inflammatory skin diseases like lupus erythematosus and psoriatic inflammation using samples from plucked hair and skin tape-strips, but no new clinical results are presented.

This review discusses treatments for female acne, highlighting the effectiveness of low-dose oral contraceptives and noting their similar side effects to placebo; it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that the Wnt pathway activator lithium chloride promotes proliferation and odontoblast differentiation of hair follicle neural crest cells.

Chemotherapy can cause significant hair thinning and changes in hair texture, while tamoxifen has a smaller effect.

The place where hair is transplanted can change its growth rate and length but not its thickness.

This study describes a 4-year-old boy who exhibits a rare, synchronized pattern of hair growth and shedding, unlike the typical asynchronous pattern seen in humans.

Trichotillomania, a disorder where people compulsively pull out their own hair, often starts around age 12, is more common in adult females, and can be treated with behavior therapy and medication.
