This case report highlights the importance of trichoscopy in diagnosing fibrosing alopecia in pattern distribution, distinguishing it from female pattern hair loss, and guiding effective treatment.

This study found that while female pattern hair loss in young to middle-aged women was commonly associated with markers of hyperandrogenism and specific histopathological features, its exact causes and treatment remain unclear.

This study found that a family history of androgenetic alopecia and specific trichoscopic features are key factors in predicting female pattern hair loss, and the developed nomogram model may help improve disease management by assessing these risks.

This study found that, in female patients with pattern hair loss, injections of adipose-derived stem cells increased hair density and thickness, reduced perifollicular inflammation, and enhanced markers associated with hair cycle regeneration.

This study found both topical spironolactone and topical minoxidil to be effective and safe treatments for female pattern hair loss, with mild to marked improvement observed over six months in both treatment groups, though more side effects were noted with minoxidil.

A new computer tool quickly measures hair thickness differences in people with common types of hair loss.

This study found that trichoscopic measurements of hair density and diameter are useful for assessing the severity of female pattern hair loss and its progression.

In this study, trichoscopy was identified as a useful non-invasive tool to aid in the diagnosis of female pattern hair loss, with peri pilar sign and hair diameter variability being common findings.

In this hospital-based cross-sectional study, researchers observed that trichoscopy effectively differentiates between severe and mild male pattern hair loss by identifying specific features such as yellow and white dots, vellus hair, and hair shaft diversity.

This study found that topical minoxidil 2% stimulated hair growth in women with female pattern hair loss after 4 months of treatment, though 55% reported side effects like dermatitis and hypertrichosis.

This study found that injection of adipose-derived adult stem cells improved hair density, thickness, and reduced inflammation in women with female pattern hair loss over 24 weeks.

This study concluded that intralesional lyophilized growth factor injections are safe and improve trichoscopic hair parameters and clinical scores in patients with female pattern hair loss.

In this study, chemotherapy-induced alopecia in cancer patients showed specific trichoscopic patterns and abnormal hair shaft morphology, suggesting intermittent follicle damage from chemotherapy, but larger studies are needed for confirmation.

This study in Chennai, India, found that while some trichoscopic patterns are specific, many overlap across different scalp dermatoses, highlighting the importance of dermatologists staying informed about the latest findings.

This case series reports three novel and atypical morphological patterns of alopecia areata, termed the central sparing, paw, and punctate patterns, highlighting their importance for dermatologists in improving diagnosis and management of the condition.

This study found that combining 17α-estradiol 0.01% with minoxidil 2% offered no statistically significant advantage over minoxidil alone for treating female pattern hair loss and may increase the risk of menstrual irregularities.

In this study, researchers reported that dermatoscopy effectively differentiates between various types of alopecia and scalp disorders, offering a fast, minimally invasive diagnostic method that improves the standard of care and reduces the necessity for scalp biopsies.

This study reported that in women with pattern baldness, hormonal levels and iron deficiency were significantly associated with the condition, but trichoscopic findings were similar across different forms of female pattern hair loss.

In this study, chronic telogen effluvium was identified as the most common cause of alopecia in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, with trichoscopy proving effective in diagnosing different alopecia patterns.

This study found that growth factor concentrate provides quicker improvements for patterned hair loss, but platelet-rich plasma offers more sustained benefits after treatment.

This study found topical finasteride and minoxidil both improved hair loss clinically and trichoscopically more effectively than spironolactone in women with female pattern hair loss.

In this prospective study, ritlecitinib effectively reduced hair loss in patients with severe alopecia areata, with 43.3% of participants achieving a 20 or lower SALT score by week 24, and showed a good midterm safety profile.

In this study, female pattern hair loss in Chinese Han patients was characterized by decreased hair density and shaft diameter, with minor gender differences and the vertex most affected.

The document corrects errors in a table about hair loss in women.

This study aimed to document and compare the prevalence and characteristics of hair loss in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus, noting the differences in trichoscopic and histopathologic evaluations between those with and without alopecia. Results are not reported.

This article discusses the uses and techniques of trichoscopy for hair and scalp disorders and reports no new clinical results.

This study analyzed trichoscopic features of discoid lupus erythematosus on the scalp in skin of color and found distinct patterns based on clinical morphology.

This study compared the diagnostic effectiveness of Folliscope and Trichoscope in 100 men with androgenetic alopecia, concluding that using both methods enhances diagnostic accuracy by providing complementary insights—Trichoscope highlights patterns while Folliscope offers objective measurements.

This study reported that trichoscopy is a more effective diagnostic tool than the trichogram for early diagnosis of FAGA, regardless of hair shaft diversity cut-off levels.

In this study, certain trichoscopic features were found to be sensitive and specific for diagnosing primary cicatricial alopecias and its subtypes using dermatoscopy.
