This review discusses the development of electrospun nanofibrous scaffolds for promoting angiogenesis in tissue engineering but notes that their clinical application beyond bone and skin repair is still limited.

This review discusses the multifactorial origins and pathophysiology of PCOS and highlights the effectiveness of lifestyle modifications as a first-line intervention, reporting no new research results.

This review discusses the role of oxidative stress in hair greying and suggests that understanding melanocyte susceptibility at different follicular locations may help develop therapies for preventing and reversing the process; it reports no new experimental results.

This review discusses telogen effluvium, a common type of hair loss, focusing on differentiation from other conditions and potential causes, but presents no new research findings.

This review discusses diagnostic approaches for women with diffuse, nonscarring hair loss and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses treatments for female pattern hair loss, highlighting that oral antiandrogens and topical minoxidil can effectively arrest progression and reverse miniaturization in many patients with mild-to-moderate cases, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses hidradenitis suppurativa's pathogenesis, including its inflammatory nature and the role of smoking as a triggering factor, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that myo-inositol treatment reduced hirsutism and acne in women with PCOS by improving their metabolic profiles, including lower insulin and testosterone levels.

This study found that women with PCOS reported higher overall psychological distress, but there was no significant link between their perceived hirsutism and this distress.

This study concluded that combined hormonal contraceptives containing desogestrel, drospirenone, or cyproterone acetate were associated with a higher risk of venous thromboembolism compared to those containing levonorgestrel.

Some drugs can cause hair loss, and stopping these drugs often leads to hair regrowth.

This review discusses hormone replacement therapy for women with premature ovarian insufficiency, strongly recommending it for symptom relief and bone protection, but notes a lack of evidence on optimal types and doses.

This study reviews recent advancements in microneedles made from PLGA, highlighting their use in delivering vaccines, drugs, and proteins through the skin with minimal invasiveness, and discusses the challenges and future potential of these delivery systems.

Both drugs lower DHT levels, with GI198745 being more effective.

This study found a strong dose-related increase in the risk of intracranial meningiomas associated with high doses of cyproterone acetate, with some reduction in risk after stopping the treatment.

This study suggests that finasteride may be a promising treatment for chronic central serous chorioretinopathy, but larger controlled trials are needed to confirm its efficacy.

This systematic review suggests that current evidence does not support routinely discontinuing gender-affirming hormone treatments before surgery, especially testosterone and spironolactone, due to limited data on related perioperative risks.

This study found that while cyproterone acetate, finasteride, and spironolactone had similar short-term effects in treating idiopathic hirsutism, spironolactone provided more lasting benefits one year after treatment.

Antiandrogens, particularly flutamide and CPA, are most effective for treating hirsutism, with long-term use needed for best results.

This study reports that oral spironolactone may be a useful and low-cost first-line treatment for hidradenitis suppurativa in women, with relatively few side effects.

This paper discusses spironolactone as a potential off-label treatment for female pattern hair loss, noting its ability to halt hair loss progression and induce partial regrowth in a significant number of women but reports no new clinical results.

Oral retinoids can cause side effects ranging from mild to severe, including birth defects, and require careful monitoring and contraception.

This review highlights that idiopathic hirsutism is characterized by local hyperandrogenization affecting hair growth, without other signs of hyperandrogenism, and shows no new results; racial differences in prevalence are noted but not in androgenic steroids.

This review concludes that antiandrogens with ovarian suppression may significantly improve hirsutism and androgenetic alopecia in women with PCOS, but treatment needs to continue unless the underlying PCOS cause is addressed.

This review examines androgen replacement therapy in women for treating androgen deficiency symptoms and reports no new clinical results, while noting potential safety within a specific dose range.

This review discusses genetic factors that may influence the effectiveness of metformin in treating polycystic ovary syndrome and emphasizes the need for further research to establish clear benefits.

This review discusses the physiology of hair growth, common abnormal patterns of hirsutism, and examines differential diagnoses and treatment options, but provides no new clinical findings.

Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.

This study found that the combination of spironolactone and finasteride significantly improved hirsutism scores more than spironolactone alone in women, with similar side-effect profiles between treatments.

This article reviews the hormonal pathogenesis and treatment strategies for acne vulgaris, particularly in women with severe or treatment-resistant cases, associating it with hormonal imbalances and hyperandrogenism.
