In this pilot study, finasteride increased testosterone/dihydrotestosterone and progesterone/dihydroprogesterone ratios in normal ovulatory women but did not alter ovulation or gonadotropin secretion.

This article briefly describes local anesthesia techniques for hair restoration surgery that aim to enhance patient comfort but reports no new research results.

In this study, scalp hair sweating was a significant predictor of hair cortisol levels in healthy adults, while BMI and perceived stress, although associated, did not significantly predict cortisol levels.

This study found that among patients with Down syndrome, those with alopecia areata may have increased antiperoxidase antibodies, possibly linked to hypothyroidism.

In this study, Eclipta alba phytosomes were developed to enhance the bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy of its bioactive compounds, showing improved in vitro antioxidant activity and significant in vivo anticancer effects compared to the free extract.

In this study, researchers found that increased androgen levels, such as testosterone, and insulin resistance are strongly associated with more severe acne in adult women, along with a higher incidence of menstrual irregularities and PCOS characteristics.

This case report describes a rare instance of virilizing androgen production due to an ovarian serous cystadenoma in a 59-year-old woman, with testosterone levels normalizing after its removal.

This study found that the newly developed transdermal oil body microgel emulsion (OBEME) improved wound healing in mice by enhancing skin permeability, reducing inflammation, and promoting new blood vessel formation and re-epithelialization.

This case report details a post-menopausal woman with hirsutism and virilization due to rare Leydig cell tumors in both ovaries, underscoring the challenge of detecting such tumors with standard imaging.

This review discusses the regenerative processes of lizard tails, particularly focusing on the diversity in blastema development across different species, and reports no new findings.

This review highlights how natural compounds can enhance wound healing by influencing fibroblast behavior and discusses innovative biomimetic engineering and delivery methods. This source emphasizes combining traditional and modern approaches for effective and scar-free healing, while noting challenges in clinical translation.

This study found that nanostructured lipid carriers with more soybean phosphatidylcholine provided better skin retention and follicular targeting for diphencyprone compared to other formulations and controls.

This case report describes a 57-year-old woman's virilizing adrenal tumor effectively treated with the antiandrogen cyproterone acetate, which led to symptom reversal and tumor resolution.

This study found that PRP combined with dalteparin and protamine microparticles may enhance hair growth by increasing hair thickness compared to PRP alone.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have higher global adiposity and increased visceral fat, particularly in the ip and mesenteric depots, compared to women without androgen excess.

Method detects finasteride in plasma and semen with high sensitivity and accuracy.

This review discusses how the HSD3B1(1245C) genotype may impact androgen physiology and the progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer, and does not report new experimental results.

This study found that male liver cirrhosis patients have higher estradiol levels and lower dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate, leading to hormonal imbalances favoring estradiol, but without changing sex hormone-binding globulin's binding properties.

In this study, 7-phloroeckol, derived from marine brown algae, was found to promote hair growth by increasing cell proliferation and hair shaft elongation in cultured human hair follicles.

This study reported that pulverizing hair samples significantly improves the precision of testosterone measurement, with higher testosterone concentrations observed in men than in women.

This article presents a case of primary adrenal localization of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in a 70-year-old woman, detailing her diagnosis and treatment, with no signs of recurrent disease after polychemotherapy and radiotherapy.

This study suggests that using growth factors and ADSC-conditioned medium can enhance keratinocyte viability and migration in epidermal transplantation, potentially improving chronic wound healing rates with a patient-dependent effect.

This source reports that tofacitinib and ruxolitinib showed potential efficacy and acceptable safety profiles in treating various autoimmune disorders, including alopecia areata and psoriasis, based on a review of clinical studies, while recommending physicians consider the individual risks and benefits.

This study demonstrated that an LC/MS-MS method could effectively detect and quantify the vitamin B3 vitamer nicotinamide in human hair, suggesting its potential use for long-term deficiency examination.

This study found that applying topical thymidine dinucleotide (pTT) to newborn mice before UV exposure delayed and reduced melanoma development compared to untreated controls.

This study suggests that analyzing hair samples with a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometric assay may offer a reliable method to measure average quarterly vitamin D levels, potentially complementing blood tests.

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.

Stopping forehead irritation and using hydrocortisone helped a man's skin, Martinique has lower melanoma rates, a man had an allergy to a specific antifungal, another had unexplained cysts, certain drugs can cause skin reactions without always being interrelated, a link between Fanconi anemia and a skin condition was suggested, high levels of a certain protein may play a role in a type of psoriasis, and there's a need to study the connection between scalp pain and hair loss.

This study found that cortisol levels, a biomarker of chronic stress, significantly increased in the post-COVID-19 lockdown period compared to pre-lockdown and during-lockdown periods, especially among females and young adults, reflecting sustained psychological stress from the pandemic.

This study developed a non-invasive, partially automated protocol for extracting high-quality DNA from hair follicles of marmosets, significantly reducing chimerism rates compared to blood, and proving reliable for whole genome sequencing in low-input DNA scenarios.
