research Pattern Hair Loss in Men
Male pattern hair loss caused by follicular miniaturization; early diagnosis and treatment can reduce psychological burden.
research A preliminary study of finasteride in Tourette syndrome
Finasteride reduces Tourette syndrome symptoms, but results may be limited due to potential biases.
research Desferrioxamine treatment of aceruloplasminemia: Long‐term follow‐up
Finasteride may help reduce symptoms in male Tourette syndrome patients.
research Finasteride-associated male infertility
Finasteride may cause male infertility, stopping it can help.
research Topical ALA-Photodynamic Therapy for Acne Can Induce Apoptosis of Sebocytes and Down-regulate Their TLR-2 and TLR-4 Expression
ALA-photodynamic therapy helps reduce acne by causing acne cell death and lowering certain skin protein levels.
research The Female Pattern Hair Loss: Review of Etiopathogenesis and Diagnosis
Female pattern hair loss involves hormonal factors, genetics, and may be linked to low ferritin levels.
research Androgenetic alopecia and insulin resistance: are they truly associated?
No true link between AGA and insulin resistance, but coexistence may worsen AGA.
research The effect of St. John’s wort on the pharmacokinetics, metabolism and biliary excretion of finasteride and its metabolites in healthy men
St. John's wort increases finasteride metabolism, reducing its effectiveness; use caution when combining them.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Obesity and the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Obesity worsens Polycystic Ovary Syndrome symptoms, and weight loss is a key treatment.

Using certain small proteins with a growth factor and specific materials can increase the creation of neurons from stem cells.
research Morphometric-stereological and functional epididymal alterations and a decrease in fertility in rats treated with finasteride and after a 30-day post-treatment recovery period
Finasteride causes lasting fertility decrease in rats.
research Antiandrogen Therapy for Skin and Hair Disease
Antiandrogen therapies are beneficial for treating skin and hair conditions related to androgen levels.
research Disrupted Pancreatic Exocrine Differentiation and Malabsorption in Response to Chronic Elevated Systemic Glucocorticoid
High glucocorticoids cause pancreatic malfunction and malabsorption, reversible with enzyme supplements.
