In this study, daughters of women with PCOS and control daughters showed no significant differences in metabolic and hormonal parameters, but more PCOS daughters exhibited hirsutism at advanced pubertal stages.

This article discusses the efficacy and safety of mycophenolate mofetil and hydroxychloroquine for treating lichen planopilaris and reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that in an ex vivo rat glaucoma model, TSPO activation is involved in Allopregnanolone synthesis and may help prevent retinal damage, with TSPO agonists as potential therapeutic agents.

This study comprehensively compared different crystalline forms of finasteride, including the new finasteride DMF solvate hemihydrate, to better understand their structural characteristics and intermolecular interactions.

This article reviews treatment options and psychological impacts of alopecia areata and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that testosterone administration reduced the expression of uterine receptivity molecules in ovariectomized rats, which may negatively affect early pregnancy establishment and female fertility.

Generalized glucocorticoid resistance causes hormone imbalances and varied symptoms due to gene mutations.

This paper reviews the current lack of evidence on the safety and effectiveness of gender-affirming therapies in minors with gender dysphoria, highlighting ethical and legal concerns, including possible long-term consequences such as infertility.

This study investigated the mechanisms of Platycladi Cacumen in treating androgenetic alopecia, identifying potential key components and targets but found no specific targets or regulatory mechanisms.

In this study, researchers used molecular docking to show that compounds from pomegranate peels, such as apigenin, luteolin, and taxifolin, effectively inhibit the enzyme 5α-reductase, suggesting potential anti-alopecic properties.

This study suggests that potent topical corticosteroid occlusion may be a safe and effective treatment option for pediatric patients with severe alopecia areata, although further research is needed on its long-term safety and recurrence.

This review discusses the medicinal uses and phytochemical composition of Eclipta alba and reports no new clinical findings; the authors suggest its potential therapeutic significance due to complex interactions of its constituents.

This study found that neonatal administration of finasteride reduced sensitivity to alcohol's motor-stimulating effects and increased preference for novelty and initial alcohol consumption in rats, suggesting a role in alcohol vulnerability.

Most dermatologic medications are safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, but some should be avoided due to potential risks.

This study suggests that male sex and androgenic steroid use increase the risk of atrial arrhythmias in individuals with arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, especially those with desmosomal gene mutations.

This review discusses various sex hormones and related compounds, including estrogens and anabolic steroids, but reports no new findings; it highlights existing literature from 2014 regarding their use and effects.

In this study, seven patients with refractory alopecia areata treated with concentrated growth factor and microneedling-assisted betamethasone experienced significant hair regrowth, with one achieving over 50% regrowth and six showing complete recovery, without adverse effects.

This review compiles information on traditional uses, phytoconstituents, and biological activities of Eclipta prostrata but reports no new experimental results; the authors call for more studies to understand its pharmacological mechanisms.

This study suggests that the floral secretions of Brasiliorchis schunkeana may attract Diptera as potential pollinators, but field observations are needed to confirm this pollination syndrome.

This review highlights that Trigonella foenum-graecum L. (fenugreek) shows promise as a versatile plant-based ingredient in cosmetics due to its phytochemicals, which offer benefits for skin and hair care, although further research is necessary for robust validation.

This review highlights how natural products with antioxidant properties can modulate the Wnt signaling pathway, potentially influencing various pathological conditions such as cancer, stroke, and regenerative medicine. It also addresses controversies in the compounds' mechanisms across different models and suggests research directions for future studies.

In this animal study, the researchers reported that a shampoo containing 2.5% teak leaf extract and 0.30% virgin coconut oil significantly increased hair growth rate and reduced hair loss in mice, suggesting potential benefits for addressing hair loss.

This study analyzed 57 medicinal and cosmetic preparations available in Poland for treating alopecia, finding that finasteride is the most common active ingredient, with many products being in tablet or shampoo form and categorized as prescription drugs and cosmetics.

Long-term use of azole antifungals can cause hair loss, hormonal imbalances, and severe skin reactions.
