research An unusual presentation of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy
This case report describes a 57-year-old man's late diagnosis of X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy, highlighting the need to consider this condition in patients with non-autoimmune primary adrenal insufficiency and neurological issues.
research An X-Linked Gene Involved in Androgenetic Alopecia: A Lesson to Be Learned from Adrenoleukodystrophy
This study found that men with adrenomyeloneuropathy often experience diffuse hair loss and severe male-pattern baldness, potentially due to the X-linked ALD mutation's role in androgenetic alopecia's genetic spectrum.
research Diagnosed with primary adrenal insufficiency? search adrenoleukodystrophy-two brothers presented with similar phenotype
This case report describes the first confirmed instances of X-linked adrenomyeloneuropathy/adrenoleukodystrophy in two brothers from Bangladesh, noting their progressive neurological symptoms, MRI findings, and differing disease outcomes over several years of observation.
research ABCD1 Gene Mutations: Mechanisms and Management of Adrenomyeloneuropathy
This review describes the clinical presentation, diagnosis, and management of adrenomyeloneuropathy, including rehabilitative therapies and spasticity management, and reports no new clinical results.

Hair loss is linked to factors like chronic tension and inflammation, not just DHT, and solutions include natural light exposure and scalp health improvement. Finasteride is debated, with some users experiencing side effects like ED, while others find it effective for hair regrowth.
community Popular hair loss drug linked to higher suicide risk: compared to non-users, finasteride (Proscar/ Propecia) users have a markedly increased risk of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. Over 30 years of observation, 19,320 suicides were expected.
Finasteride users may have an increased risk of depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts, though some attribute these issues to hair loss itself. The link between finasteride and mental health effects is debated, with varying user experiences.
community My Theory Of Androgenic Alopecia
Hair loss is linked to cellular physiology and the IGF-1 to TGF-B1 ratio, not just androgen sensitivity. The theory lacks evidence, while finasteride and minoxidil are effective treatments.
community Subcutaneous Scalp fat and Hair loss? Interested in others annecdotal experience or knowledge.
Subcutaneous scalp fat may be linked to hair loss, with theories suggesting that fat loss can lead to reduced blood flow and increased DHT activity, contributing to hair loss. Treatments discussed include PRP/PRF injections and fat transfer to improve scalp thickness and blood flow.
community Study on Sugar Intake on Male Pattern Hair Loss
Excessive sugar and high-fat diets are linked to male pattern hair loss, with sweet beverages being a significant factor. Moderation in diet is advised, as diet alone may not fully prevent hair loss due to other factors like DHT sensitivity.
