This article introduces a needleless microjet injector using laser pulse energy for tattoo pigments in scalp micropigmentation, highlighting an almost painless procedure without anesthesia.

This research discusses the function and culture of human dermal papilla cells, noting their unique in vitro characteristics and the ongoing efforts to understand their role in inducing hair growth.

This case report describes a 72-year-old woman with a steroid cell tumor of the ovary, highlighting the critical role of imaging, biochemical evaluation, and pathology in diagnosing and managing hormonally active ovarian tumors that cause virilization in postmenopausal women.

In this study, particles similar in size to keratin cells were surprisingly found to penetrate more efficiently into hair follicles due to a possible pumping effect from moving hairs.

This study measured the force required to pluck anagen and telogen hair from volunteers, suggesting that trichotillometry could assess hair strength in alopecia patients and evaluate treatment efficacy.

This study reports that trichocyte intermediate filaments from rat vibrissae and human hair follicles may contain a hollow region at their core, suggesting unique structural properties.

QIA-64 software can measure straight wire lengths accurately but needs improvement for curved wires and width measurements.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with virilization linked to ovarian stromal hyperthecosis, highlighting the importance of detailed clinical evaluation and complementary testing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This study found that a liposome containing butterfly pea flower extract and clove oil was stable and, when used by 15 volunteers over 60 days, enhanced eyebrow thickness and darkness without causing irritation.

This research suggests that the drugs trazodone and chlorpromazine, which have effects on specific receptors, may help restore libido synaptic circuits and potentially treat sexual dysfunction associated with post-SSRI and post-finasteride syndromes.

This article reviews the phases of hair growth and differences between androgenetic alopecia and telogen effluvium but provides no new clinical findings on Electric Follicle Stimulation.

This research reported that eflornithine HCl 13.9% cream generally has a favorable dermal safety profile for managing unwanted facial hair in women, though it can cause mild irritation under certain conditions.

In this randomized study of male contraceptive regimens, adding finasteride did not significantly enhance spermatogenesis suppression compared to the control group.

Finasteride can help induce ovulation and lead to a healthy birth in some women.

This review study found that vesicular carriers like liposomes, niosomes, invasomes, and transferosomes can enhance drug penetration through follicles, benefiting treatments for alopecia, acne, and infections, as well as potentially facilitating systemic delivery of antihypertensive drugs and insulin.

This case report describes a 13-year-old with DSD raised as female, exhibiting hoarseness and clitoral enlargement, with hormonal assessments not indicating common related deficiencies.

This article reviews adolescent sexual behavior and emphasizes the importance of hormonal contraception for sexually active teenagers, suggesting that health care providers play a crucial role in addressing their reproductive needs.

This review examines hair removal practices prior to genital gender affirming surgery, noting current variations and offering a practical laser hair removal approach, but reports no new clinical results.

In this case report, researchers described a postmenopausal woman with virilization symptoms who was diagnosed with a Leydig cell tumor in her ovary, and symptoms improved following tumor removal. The authors highlighted the diagnostic challenge of differentiating such cases from age-related hormonal changes.

This study identified several gonadal hormone drugs, including toremifene citrate, tamoxifen citrate, and clomiphene citrate, that effectively inhibited filovirus entry in a pseudovirus model.

This review discusses the various applications of platelet-rich plasma in gynecology but presents no new experimental findings; the authors highlight its potential in managing conditions like Asherman’s syndrome and urinary incontinence.

In this study, low-level light therapy increased the proliferation and activation of dermal papilla cells, which in turn may enhance the growth of outer root sheath keratinocytes, suggesting potential mechanisms for improving hair follicle interaction.

In this study, researchers detailed how hair follicles regenerate after microsurgical amputation, observing a wound reaction involving dynamic dermal-epidermal interactions and changes in extracellular matrix components.

This study found that intraovarian PRP treatment in women with low ovarian reserve was associated with significant increases in serum AMH levels in some patients, typically within four weeks.

This review discusses current research and interest in extracellular vesicles for applications in plastic surgery and underscores the need for standardized protocols and further evidence to inform clinical use.

Hair follicle stem cells can become heart muscle cells.

This study found that Zhuangyao Jianshen pill significantly improved prostate health in testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in castrated rats by modulating sex hormones and reducing inflammation and oxidative stress.

This paper compiles previously observed similarities in biomagnetic fields emitted by human hair and mouse vibrissa follicles, with findings supporting distinctive patterns of biomagnetic activity skewed to one side.
