Finasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate and male baldness, improves symptoms of hirsutism in women, but doesn't work for acne, and may delay prostate cancer progression with few side effects.

Alopecia areata has a complex genetic basis that was not fully understood as of 2001.

Finasteride shows promise for treating hair loss and excessive hair growth, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.

A baby boy with 13q deletion syndrome had eye cancer, a woman's vision improved after stopping a breast cancer drug, a man developed cataracts from using Propecia, and a rare skin disorder called Lipoid Proteinosis was discussed. Also, a tool called OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
