The conclusion is that PCOS is a common cause of hirsutism in young obese women, and early treatment is important to reduce the risk of metabolic syndrome.

Lichen planopilaris in men often involves scalp redness and itching, with some also having hair loss, mucosal lichen planus, or thyroid disease, and treatment improved symptoms in nearly half of the cases.

Hirsutism is mainly caused by high androgen levels or sensitivity, with PCOS being the most common cause.

Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.

The document explains various skin conditions and their treatments.

Epithelial stem cells are crucial for tissue renewal and repair, and understanding them could improve treatments for damage and cancer.

Lgr5 is a marker for active, self-renewing stem cells in the intestine and skin, important for tissue maintenance.

Certain proteins, Lgr5 and Lgr6, are important markers of adult stem cells and are involved in tissue repair and cancer development.

The niche environment controls stem cell behavior and plasticity, which is important for tissue health and repair.

Different types of stem cells with unique roles exist in blood, skin, and intestines, and this variety is important for tissue repair.

Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.

Wnt and Notch signaling help wound healing by promoting cell growth and regulating cell differentiation.

Skin changes can help diagnose and manage endocrine disorders like thyroid problems, diabetes, and adrenal gland conditions.

Testosterone therapy seems safe for postmenopausal women for a few years, but more research is needed for long-term effects.

Hirsutism is excessive hair growth in women often caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome, and identifying the cause is important for managing associated health risks.

PPAR agonists show promise for skin conditions but need more research before being a main treatment.

Athletes use steroids to enhance performance despite health risks and legal issues, and education on their dangers is needed.

The document concludes that more research is needed to understand excessive hair growth in women with normal hormone levels and regular ovulation.

Hormone imbalances can cause specific skin changes, which may help in early detection of endocrine disorders.

The conclusion is that oral contraceptives and antiandrogens can treat hirsutism and acne in women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism, but more research is needed for effective treatments, especially for hair loss.

Using anabolic androgenic steroids can cause serious, lasting health problems in many parts of the body.

Budesonide and N-acetylcysteine reduced tumors and alopecia in mice, regardless of FHIT gene status.

Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and baldness, but may cause limited urinary improvement and sex-related side effects.

The conclusion suggests that PCOS may persist due to genetic traits that, while harmful for female fertility, could have provided survival and reproductive benefits to males.

Cross-sex hormone therapy is important for managing gender dysphoria and requires careful monitoring and healthcare provider education.

Skin problems in older people can indicate hormonal diseases, nutritional deficiencies, or conditions like diabetes, menopause, and HIV.

Nandrolone and oxandrolone could help treat male health issues like muscle loss and low testosterone.

Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.

Skin diseases linked to insulin resistance should be managed to prevent diabetes and reduce heart disease risk.

Rare adrenal cancers that secrete androgens or estrogens have a poor prognosis and are treated primarily with surgery.
