The document concludes that more research is needed to confirm if COVID-19 vaccines cause a type of hair loss called alopecia areata.

This review found that fulvestrant is well tolerated in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive advanced breast cancer, showing lower incidence of joint disorders than non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors.

In this study, cyproterone acetate with ethinyl estradiol effectively treated acne, hirsutism, and alopecia in women, with the highest success in acne and rare side effects similar to estrogen contraceptives.

This study found that after 12 weeks of taking the trial product SHPro®, participants reported improvements in prostate symptom scores and erectile function, with confirmed safety.

This study found that two new progesterone derivatives showed higher antiandrogenic effects and 5α-reductase inhibition than finasteride in hamsters, particularly reducing seminal vesicle weight and flank organ size.

This study reports that progesterone metabolism to DHP and THP is necessary for its neuroprotective effect against kainic acid excitotoxicity in ovariectomized rats, unlike the synthetic progestin MPA.

This study found that using valproic acid during radiotherapy for glioma was associated with delayed hair loss and improved survival outcomes.

In this study, proxalutamide significantly reduced the 30-day hospitalization rate by 91% compared to placebo in men with COVID-19 treated in outpatient settings.

Using finasteride with TIP extends time off period for prostate cancer patients.

The researchers reported that metabolism of progesterone to 3α,5α-THP in the hippocampus is important for its antiseizure effects in ovariectomized rats.

This study found that valproic acid is effective in controlling absence seizures and can improve other seizure types, but 20% of patients experience mostly transient adverse reactions.

This study found that treatment with cyproterone acetate was generally successful for women with virilizing features, showing improved results in younger women and those with adrenal hirsutism, despite some side effects.

This study concluded that a synthesis process for finasteride from pregnenolone acetic ester is inexpensive, simple, and achieves a good yield of 36.5%.

HPV infection is linked to better survival in advanced anal cancer, higher radiation doses improve survival, especially in HPV-negative patients, and prostaglandin E₂ pretreatment can protect mouse hair follicles from radiation damage.

In this study, both cyproterone acetate-estrogen combination (Diane®) and finasteride were effective in reducing hirsutism, but Diane® showed greater long-term efficacy and cost-effectiveness.

This review explores the therapeutic applications of bimatoprost, including its role in glaucoma treatment, hair growth stimulation, and potential effects on fat deposition, but reports no new experimental findings.

In this randomized trial, the researchers observed that both montelukast and finasteride effectively reduced acne severity and lesion count in women with moderate acne, but finasteride showed greater efficacy. Both medications had transient, non-serious side effects, indicating satisfactory tolerability and safety.

This study reported that dutasteride, identified through a drug repurposing strategy, showed the potential to reduce neuroinflammation and cognitive impairment in LPS-stimulated models.

Prostaglandin helps regenerate hair follicles after radiation damage.

Taking a small dose of prednisone before menstruation can almost completely prevent premenstrual acne with few side effects.

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.

This study found that two-thirds of patients with persistent chronic daily headache showed significant improvement with divalproex sodium treatment, although common side effects included weight gain, tremor, hair loss, and nausea.

This article examines the PCPT study on whether daily finasteride can reduce prostate cancer incidence, describing its methodology and findings but reporting no new clinical results.

This study reported that newly synthesized progesterone derivatives significantly reduced prostate weight in testosterone-treated hamsters, with 5alpha-reductase inhibitory activity dependent on the size of the substituent at C-17.
