Hair follicles are smaller in people with androgenetic alopecia compared to those with normal scalps.
research TELOGEN EFFLUVIUM: AN ETIOPATHOGENETIC THEORY
The paper suggests that telogen effluvium, a type of hair loss, may be a long-lasting condition triggered by stress or illness in people whose hair growth is unusually synchronized.
research Cutaneous immunopathology of androgenetic alopecia
Inflammation may play a role in causing androgenetic alopecia.
research Conditioned media-integrated microneedles for hair regeneration through perifollicular angiogenesis
A new microneedle patch effectively promotes hair growth by increasing blood vessel formation around hair follicles.
research Perspectives on miRNAs Targeting DKK1 for Developing Hair Regeneration Therapy
Targeting a protein that blocks hair growth with microRNAs could lead to new hair loss treatments, but more research is needed.

research Male Equivalent Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Hormonal, Metabolic, and Clinical Aspects.
Men with hormonal imbalances similar to PCOS may have increased risk of metabolic and heart diseases.
research Use of platelet-rich plasma in lichen planopilaris and its variants: A retrospective case series demonstrating treatment tolerability without koebnerization
Platelet-rich plasma is tolerable for lichen planopilaris and doesn't worsen the condition, but its effectiveness is unclear.
