Leydig cell tumors can cause hormone issues in postmenopausal women even if imaging looks normal.
research Alopecia due to high androgen index contraceptives
Some birth control pills can cause hair loss, and switching to ones with less androgen should help.
research 562 Neuroendocrinology of human scalp hair follicles: Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) stimulates hair growth and controls a fully functional intrafollicular hypothalamic-pituitary-somatotropic (HPS) signaling axis
Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) boosts hair growth and human scalp hair follicles have their own growth hormone system.
research Development and Validation of an HPLC-PDA Method for Quantitation of Ten Marker Compounds from Eclipta prostrata (L.) and Evaluation of Their Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase 1B, α-Glucosidase, and Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitory Activities

research Does hair cortisol concentration reflect measurable regulatory biology of the HPA axis in healthy humans?
Hair cortisol concentration partly reflects HPA axis regulation but doesn't capture all its complexities.
research Insulin resistance, nitric oxide, and fibrinogen levels in white hirsute women: Defining a new paradigm based on translational research
White hirsute women with PCOS have higher insulin resistance, but similar nitric oxide and fibrinogen levels compared to those with idiopathic hirsutism.
research Hirsutism scoring in polycystic ovary syndrome: concordance between clinicians' and patients' self-scoring
Patients with PCOS tend to score their hirsutism higher than clinicians, making self-scoring less useful for diagnosis.
