This study observed that first-time mothers reported a gradual decrease in postpartum symptoms from an average of 7 at one month to 5.3 at three months, with pervasive issues like lack of energy and irritability, especially among older mothers.

This article discusses how medicinal plants, known for their antiviral, immunomodulatory, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties, may help alleviate long-term COVID-19 effects, but emphasizes the need for further clinical trials to confirm safety and efficacy.

This study found that pregnant women with rheumatic diseases had sufficient energy and macronutrient intake, but showed a high prevalence of overweight and obesity, with selenium intake exceeding safe levels, which may lead to potential side effects.

This case study reported a 68-year-old woman with postmenopausal virilization due to a rare Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor, where her symptoms and elevated testosterone levels only normalized post-surgery, underscoring the importance of thorough evaluation in such cases to improve diagnosis and treatment.

In this study, researchers found that finasteride induces dysregulation of genes related to neuropsychiatric disorders, including the HOMER-3 gene associated with dementia, and propose exploring craniosacral osteopathic therapy's potential to modulate this gene's methylation profile and alleviate related symptoms.

This research emphasizes the importance of integrating pre-treatment psychological assessments for individuals considering finasteride, highlighting that these assessments could help identify those prone to nocebo responses, potentially reducing adverse symptom development more related to cognitive vulnerabilities than to the drug itself.

This study in women aged 28-38 after their first cesarean delivery found higher levels of inflammatory markers and metabolic disturbances, including elevated BMI and blood sugar, which may contribute to increased postpartum hair loss compared to healthy controls.

This chapter examines how hormonal changes during the postpartum period, alongside various external factors, impact mother and infant well-being, addressing challenges like postpartum depression, fatigue, and healthcare access, while stressing the need for improved medical training focused on maternal and fetal health.

This study observed that post-COVID-19 telogen effluvium is more common among those with anemia, but was not linked to the severity of the initial infection.

This study observed that 69.9% of postmenopausal women in Saudi Arabia experienced female pattern hair loss, significantly linked to early menopause, chronic diseases, family history, and stress, and found this condition also impacts women's self-confidence and social interactions.

This study found that administering Rosmarinus Officinalis extract peritoneally shortly after surgery may raise the risk of evisceration at the abdominal incision site.

The authors suggest that during hair transplantation for hair loss, the parietal eminence area should be prioritized along with the mid-scalp to address future noticeable thinning, especially since this area often becomes more conspicuous over time.

This case study describes a 45-year-old man who developed post-finasteride syndrome with various symptoms after stopping Finasteride, highlighting the condition's rarity and poorly understood pathophysiology.

This clinical case study reports on a postmenopausal woman experiencing hair loss and virilization symptoms, which were ultimately attributed to rare ovarian tumors identified after a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, despite normal imaging results.

This study examined a case of postmenopausal virilization in a woman and found that despite normal imaging, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy revealed rare ovarian Leydig cell and Brenner tumors as the source of hyperandrogenism, with symptoms resolving post-surgery.

In this case report, the authors describe the diagnosis and management of a rare case of hyperandrogenism in a postmenopausal woman, attributed to coexisting ovarian Leydig cell and Brenner tumors, with improvement in symptoms following bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.

In this case report, researchers described a postmenopausal woman with virilization symptoms who was diagnosed with a Leydig cell tumor in her ovary, and symptoms improved following tumor removal. The authors highlighted the diagnostic challenge of differentiating such cases from age-related hormonal changes.

In this case report, a 66-year-old postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism and alopecia underwent bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, which revealed rare synchronous ovarian tumors causing virilization, highlighting the importance of surgical exploration despite normal imaging.

This case report describes a healthy Thai male who developed severe folliculitis following diode laser hair removal, which improved significantly with prednisolone and benzoyl peroxide treatment.
