Most women with hair loss take more supplements than average, but these often don't help and can be risky and costly.

This study found that adolescents with abnormal uterine bleeding are more likely to have secondary amenorrhea, PCOS, and higher rates of insulin resistance compared to healthy peers.

This article discusses the importance of interpreting laboratory data and performing physical assessments to support pharmacists in clinical decision-making and patient consultations, but reports no new empirical findings.

This study found that idiopathic hirsutism was the most common cause of hirsutism among patients, and insulin resistance was significant in those with Hyperandrogenic Insulin Resistant Acanthosis Nigricans Syndrome.

This study found that PCOS patients with menstrual disorders exhibited hormonal changes and higher fasting glucose levels, despite no significant differences in insulin resistance markers.

This chapter reviews the biology and biochemistry of hormones involved in male sexual development and physiology, without reporting new research findings.

This study found that women with PCOS in Taiwan have a higher luteinizing hormone to follicle-stimulating hormone ratio and lower insulin resistance compared to Western women with PCOS, potentially due to lower average body mass index.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have a higher prevalence of autoimmune thyroid disease compared to those without the condition, highlighting the importance of screening for thyroid issues in this population.

This study found that vitamin D, calcium, iron, and ferritin significantly correlate with alopecia in both genders, while zinc, B12, folic acid, and TSH correlate only in males.

This review discusses therapeutic options for pubertal induction in congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, focusing on recombinant gonadotropins, and highlights the need for larger randomized trials to determine optimal treatment strategies.

This study found that cutaneous manifestations are prevalent in PCOS patients, with 68% experiencing symptoms like hirsutism and acne, highlighting the need for better awareness across medical specialties.

This study observed that among Nepalese women with polycystic ovarian syndrome, menstrual irregularity was the most common symptom, and many had hormonal imbalances potentially increasing risks of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes.

This analysis from Egyptian researchers identified common risk factors associated with chronic telogen effluvium in children, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that among men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia, treatment with the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride for three months significantly reduced levels of dihydrotestosterone and estradiol, hormones involved in prostate enlargement, without altering follicle-stimulating hormone or luteinizing hormone levels.

In this case study, a 7-year-old Labrador with hypothyroidism and alopecia showed dramatic improvement and complete hair regrowth after two months of Levothyroxine and Ketoconazole treatment.

This study aims to evaluate whether a subset of patients experience undetected hypothyroidism, termed the "famine response," during rapid weight loss after bariatric surgery, which may impact weight loss outcomes. Results are not reported in this abstract.

This study reported that patients with PCOS and thyroid hormone disturbances had specific TPO gene mutations and differing thyroid hormone levels compared to those without disturbances or healthy controls.

This study suggests that thyroid autoimmunity may play a role in telogen effluvium pathogenesis, indicating a need for evaluating thyroid autoantibodies in addition to thyroid function tests in these patients.

This letter discusses alopecia universalis and Kallman’s Syndrome, and offers no new clinical results.

In this study, subclinical hypothyroidism in women with PCOS was linked to changes in the thyroid-prolactin axis and a lack of correlation between TSH and AMH, while gonadotropin levels and ovarian morphology remained unaffected, indicating the need for further prospective research.

This study identified key genes linked to immune cells and potential therapeutic compounds for alopecia areata by evaluating upregulated genes from patient datasets, highlighting T and NK cell involvement in hair follicle attack and suggesting drug candidates through molecular docking and dynamics simulations.

This study revisits the extensive contributions of Marie Krogh to thyroid physiology, highlighting her work that demonstrated resting metabolism changes in hyper- and hypothyroidism, her efforts to develop a thyroxine-like drug, and pioneering thyroid hormone research using guinea-pig models.

This study observed that in infertile females, those with PCOS had higher BMI, increased LH levels, and altered LH/FSH ratios compared to non-PCOS females, although no significant correlation was found between BMI and hormone levels among the PCOS group.

This study observed that among Iraqi women with hirsutism, most had hypothyroidism and elevated hormone levels, particularly DHEAS and testosterone, with acne being the most common associated clinical feature.

This case report suggests that clomiphene citrate can effectively restore fertility in some men with a long history of anabolic steroid abuse, though individual responses to treatment vary.

In this cohort study of young Danish men, self-reported older age at voice break was linked to certain reproductive hormone changes that suggest reduced male fecundity, but associations with semen characteristics and testicular volume were not statistically significant.

This study found that a sub-fraction of Noni fruit, FEA-3, showed hair growth-promoting effects in a rabbit model of androgenic alopecia, similar to Minoxidil.

This study found that fruit extracts from certain Egyptian Sabal species demonstrated significant anti-androgenic activity and potential therapeutic effects against benign prostatic hyperplasia in rat models and cell lines.

This study found that reduced levels of ferritin, TSH, and hemoglobin in young women and lower TSH, vitamin B12, and vitamin D in older women are associated with chronic diffuse hair loss.

This study suggests that low serum iron and ferritin levels may be associated with telogen effluvium in patients presenting with hair loss.
