research Aryl hydrocarbon receptor overexpression in miniaturized follicles in female pattern hair loss
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor overexpression found in miniaturized hair follicles in female hair loss.
research Androgen Dependence of Hirsutism, Acne, and Alopecia in Women
Hirsutism is more linked to high androgen levels than acne or hair loss, and a mix of hormonal tests is best for diagnosis; certain treatments can reduce symptoms.
research Androgen excess: Investigations and management
The conclusion is that managing androgen excess requires long-term treatment, including hormonal contraceptives and androgen blockers, with follow-up after six months.
research Androgens in women
Androgens play a complex role in skin conditions like acne and hair loss in women, and normal blood levels don't always show true androgen status.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss and Androgen Excess: A Report From the Multidisciplinary Androgen Excess and PCOS Committee
Use "female pattern hair loss" term, assess androgen excess, treat with minoxidil and other medications if needed.
research Androgens and hair: a biological paradox
Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas but hair loss on the scalp.
research Melatonin Receptors and Their Role in Human Diseases
Melatonin receptors, found in many body parts, can help treat various diseases like depression and diabetes due to their effects on inflammation, tumor progression, sleep disorders, and body mass regulation.
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 Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of selective estrogen receptor modulators
Estrogens and SERMs can help with skin aging, but their safety and effectiveness need more research.
research Serum androgen levels and their relationship to pattern and severity of hair growth in hirsute women presenting at private centre in Hyderabad
Higher androgen levels are linked to more severe hair growth in hirsute women.
research Female Androgenetic (?) Alopecia
Female pattern hair loss is different from male pattern hair loss and has unclear genetic causes.
research Endocrinology, Brain, and Pituitary Gland
Hormones control reproduction and are crucial for body balance.
research Cause of Androgenic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by scalp pressure on hair follicles, which increases with age and leads to a cycle of hair loss. This process is not directly determined by genes.
research The natural history of androgenetic alopecia
AGA affects many, progresses differently, and early treatment is crucial.
research Human scalp hair: Modulation by various factors and hormones do estrogens inhibit or stimulate—A perplexing perspective
The effects of estrogen on human scalp hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Gonadal Sex Steroids: Production, Action and Interactions in Mammals
The document concludes that sex hormones are crucial for mammalian reproduction, health, and behavior, and require more research for therapeutic use.
research MANAGEMENT OF ENDOCRINE DISEASE Hyperandrogenic states in women: pitfalls in laboratory diagnosis
Diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women is complex and requires accurate testing methods and consideration of SHBG levels.
research Treatment of Hair Loss
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair loss, but continued research is needed for better treatments.
research The evaluation and management of hirsutism*1
Most women with excess hair growth have an underlying hormonal issue, often treated with medication and hair removal methods.
research Effects of Sex Steroid Deprivation/Administration on Hair Growth and Skin Sebum Production in Transsexual Males and Females
Hormone treatments in transsexual individuals reduce hair growth and oil production in male-to-females and increase them in female-to-males.
research Role of genetics and sex steroid hormones in male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: An update of what we now know
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research Androgenetic alopecia: An autosomal dominant disorder
Hair loss in androgenetic alopecia is caused by genetic factors and androgen excess, and can be treated with combined therapies.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Endocrinologic Aspects of Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Hormones might affect the skin condition hidradenitis suppurativa, but their exact role is unclear.
research Anti-androgenic and Hair Growth Promoting Activities of Lygodii Spora (Spore of Lygodium japonicum) I. Active Constituents Inhibiting Testosterone 5.ALPHA.-Reductase.
Lygodii Spora extract may help treat hair loss by blocking a hair loss-related enzyme and promoting hair growth.
research The secretory clear cell of the eccrine sweat gland as the probable source of excess sweat production in hyperhidrosis
Eccrine sweat gland's clear cells likely cause excessive sweating in hyperhidrosis.
research A hypothetical pathogenesis model for androgenic alopecia: clarifying the dihydrotestosterone paradox and rate-limiting recovery factors
The model suggests that scalp tension could lead to hair loss, with factors like blood vessel hardening, enlarged oil glands, and poor microcirculation also playing a role. It also hints at a possible link between skull shape and baldness pattern.
research Estimating the Contribution of the Prostate to Blood Dihydrotestosterone
The normal human prostate does not significantly affect blood DHT levels.
research Female pattern hair loss
FPHL causes hair loss in women due to genetics and hormones; minoxidil and anti-androgens are treatments, and early intervention is advised.
