This review focuses on the clinical presentation and management challenges of menopausal acne and reports no new experimental findings.

This case study reports the first known instance of hepatic adrenocortical carcinoma in a virilized young woman, highlighting the importance of comprehensive evaluation to identify ectopic adrenal tumors.

This report describes a 38-year-old female diagnosed with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome Type II after presenting with shock.

This case study reports that carbimazole therapy led to significant hair regrowth and a drop in thyrotropin receptor antibody levels in an 11-year-old girl diagnosed with alopecia areata and Graves' disease.

In this study, zinc deficiency, iron depletion, and thyroid abnormalities were commonly observed in female pattern hair loss patients, suggesting the benefit of testing for these conditions.

This review discusses the enigmatic nature of frontal fibrosing alopecia and reports no clinical results; the authors stress the need for further research.

This case report suggests that Post-Finasteride Syndrome may involve a sustained imbalance in gut bacteria, with fermenting and hydrogen sulphide-producing bacteria disrupting hormone and mitochondrial functions.

This case report proposes that Post-Finasteride Syndrome might be sustained by specific microbes in the small intestine affecting hormone excretion and mitochondrial function, warranting further investigation in a larger cohort.

This case report highlighted a rare instance of Cushing's syndrome caused by ectopic ACTH from cervical cancer, demonstrating diagnostic challenges, treatment complexity, and high risks of morbidity and mortality, with less than 10 cases documented overall.

This paper addresses diagnostic criteria and treatment options for polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing lifestyle changes and combination oral contraceptives as primary management strategies, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case study highlights the late diagnosis of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome in a 31-year-old woman, emphasizing the psychological impact and need for individualized treatment guidelines.

This review discusses the biology of hair follicles across various species and their role in fiber quality, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found no statistical difference in thiol-disulfide balance between telogen effluvium patients and controls, suggesting oxidative stress may not affect telogen effluvium through this mechanism.

This narrative review synthesized current research on hormonal therapies in cosmetic dermatology, finding they offer promising, evidence-based applications for conditions like aging skin, acne, and melasma, but noting that safety and personalized treatment approaches are essential for responsible clinical use.

In this study, researchers in Basrah, Iraq, observed that iodine deficiency in cross-breed goat kids led to goiter, slow growth, and various biochemical changes, including increased TSH and hypercholesterolemia, suggesting the need for improved maternal diet to reduce these issues and associated mortality risks.

This study found that low-dose radioactive iodine therapy for hyperthyroidism and thyroid cancer produced short-term adverse effects like loss of taste, xerostomia, and hair loss, which were self-limiting.

In this review, researchers discuss the factors contributing to early graying, such as genetic predisposition, oxidative stress imbalance, and nutrient deficiencies, and highlight potential restoration methods involving palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 and the endocannabinoid system in hair follicles.

This study found that dermoscopy can help differentiate between types of diffuse alopecia in females, with yellow dots common in telogen effluvium and hair diameter diversity over 20% significant in female androgenetic alopecia.
