The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.
research Trace Elements Content and Hormonal Profiles in Women with Androgenetic Alopecia
Women with AGA have more androstenedione and dihydrotestosterone, less copper and zinc; copper imbalance affects AGA; treatment improves hormones and minerals.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Over 50% of women over 50 experience hair loss, with minoxidil being the only proven effective treatment.
research Exclusive Androgenic Effect of Dehydroepiandrosterone in Sebaceous Glands of Rat Skin
DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.
research Androgens and Androgen Receptor Action in Skin and Hair Follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Hair Loss in Women: Comprehensive Overview and Treatment Options
Effective hair loss treatment in women requires correct diagnosis and can include medications like minoxidil, antiandrogens, and treatments for underlying conditions like PCOS.
research Estrogen Functions in Skin and Skin Appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Local and Systemic Reduction by Topical Finasteride or Flutamide of Hamster Flank Organ Size and Enzyme Activity
Topical finasteride and flutamide reduce gland size and enzyme activity, with flutamide being more potent, potentially treating acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia.
research Contraceptive Use in Acne
Hormonal contraceptives can help treat acne by affecting sebum production and androgen levels.
research Current Concepts in Aesthetic Endocrinology
Hormones affect skin aging and fat distribution, and treatments can help, but only minoxidil is proven for female hair loss.
research Cardiometabolic Risk Factors in Rosuvastatin-Treated Men with Mixed Dyslipidemia and Early-Onset Androgenic Alopecia
Rosuvastatin improves lipid levels, reduces inflammation, but worsens insulin sensitivity in men with early-onset hair loss.
research Gender Differences in Production and Circulating Levels of Sex Hormones and Their Impact on Aging Skin
Men and women experience skin aging differently due to changes in sex hormone levels with age.
research Androgens and Cardiovascular Disease
Male hormones may play a role in the development of heart disease, and more research is needed to understand their effects.
research Is Dehydroepiandrosterone a Hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
