This review discusses the role of androgens in women's sexual health and highlights the need for further research on androgen replacement therapy to optimize quality of life, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the complex nature of frontal fibrosing alopecia, suggesting it is a misnomer and possibly a subset of lichen planopilaris, but reports no new clinical results.

This article notes slow progression and spontaneous stabilization in untreated cases of a specific scarring alopecia and reports no new results; the authors call for randomized trials to confirm the treatment's benefit.

This article explores evidence for a rational strategy in the endocrine and metabolic management of patients with excess body hair or scalp loss and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, a topical lotion containing Redensyl and Sepicontrol A5 demonstrated effectiveness for treating androgenetic alopecia over 24 weeks, with 73.1% of users seeing moderate improvement and notable increases in hair cycle ratios, alongside enhanced quality of life and satisfaction.

Different types of polycystic ovary syndrome show varying levels of insulin resistance, with the 'PHO' type being the most insulin resistant.

This article reviews gender differences in planning and managing female cosmetic surgery patients and reports no new clinical findings.

This study observed that cyclosporine A significantly alters sex hormone levels in both pre- and post-menopausal women with primary biliary cirrhosis.

This study found that a 12-week supplementation with MePL, a solution of miliacin encapsulated within polar lipids, significantly reduced hair density in the telogen phase and improved scalp dryness and hair brightness in women with telogen effluvium.

This study found that women with telogen effluvium were significantly associated with lower iron levels compared to those without hair loss.

In this study, researchers found a significant prevalence of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in Egyptian women with polycystic ovary syndrome, with insulin resistance being a key predictive factor.

This study found that 3% topical minoxidil decreased hair shedding and promoted hair growth in women with androgenetic alopecia.

This review discusses the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentation, and treatment of frontal fibrosing alopecia, noting the lack of clinical trial data and limited observational treatment results.

This study found that self-assessed mFG and Hirsuta scores have low specificity for diagnosing hirsutism in clinical settings, though they may still be useful for screening in epidemiological studies.

This article offers HTML content and a downloadable PDF but does not provide an abstract or new findings for summary.

This report describes five cases of bitemporal alopecia areata with frontal hairline involvement, detailing their management strategies and highlighting potential differential diagnoses, but does not present new clinical results.

Finasteride may help treat frontal fibrosing alopecia, but more research is needed.

The woman's skin and hair symptoms were confirmed as frontal fibrosing alopecia, and while facial papules are common in such cases, there's no effective local treatment, but systemic treatments can help.

This article reports two cases where ovarian hyperthecosis caused hyperandrogenism in postmenopausal women, confirmed by imaging and resolved after bilateral oophorectomy.

This review discusses genetic and epigenetic studies of PCOS, highlighting Genome-Wide Association Studies that found genetic variants related to gonadotrophin secretion influencing PCOS susceptibility, but it reports no new findings.

This case report describes a post-menopausal woman with severe hirsutism whose high testosterone levels decreased after gonadotropin suppression, indicating residual hormone-producing tissue responsive to gonadotropins.

This study found no significant differences in hormone levels between postmenopausal women with androgenetic alopecia and healthy controls, suggesting potential alternative causes for the condition.

This case report describes a 72-year-old woman with a steroid cell tumor of the ovary, highlighting the critical role of imaging, biochemical evaluation, and pathology in diagnosing and managing hormonally active ovarian tumors that cause virilization in postmenopausal women.

In this study, the Orbis PAXMAN® scalp cooling system showed effectiveness and good tolerability in preventing chemotherapy-induced hair loss in breast cancer patients, particularly those receiving anthracycline-free chemotherapy, though the presence of comorbidities was linked to a higher risk of severe alopecia.

This study found that supplementation with micronized and emulsified ferric pyrophosphate effectively improved lab test results and reduced iron deficiency symptoms in patients aged 19-70, with the majority reporting good tolerance and few side effects.

This narrative review highlights the critical role of intracrine hormone production in peripheral tissues, suggesting that continuous-release subcutaneous testosterone pellet therapy may offer a more effective symptom-driven approach for aging populations, though large-scale randomized controlled trials are needed for confirmation.

This study found that participants with normal hemoglobin but low ferritin experienced significantly more symptoms like restless leg syndrome, dizziness, and shortness of breath compared to those with normal ferritin.

This review discusses the role of nurse navigators in managing polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting their support in symptom management, lifestyle changes, psychosocial care, and evidence-based practices, but presents no new findings.

In this study, researchers suggest that digital microscopy using visible light could offer a more objective approach to diagnosing hirsutism by quantifying terminal hair, with future research needed to assess its usefulness in women with the condition.

This study found that women aged 21-26 with PCOS showed significant differences in biochemical and hormonal profiles, such as blood sugar and hormone levels, compared to healthy individuals, suggesting an increased incidence of PCOS in this age group.
