research Changes in hair weight and hair count in men with androgenetic alopecia after treatment with finasteride, 1 mg, daily
Finasteride increases hair weight and count in men with hair loss.
research Androgen receptors and their biology
Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Systematic Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma Use in Androgenetic Alopecia Compared with Minoxidil®, Finasteride®, and Adult Stem Cell-Based Therapy
PRP injections may be a safe, effective alternative for hair loss treatment compared to minoxidil and finasteride.

Anabolic androgenic steroids can increase cancer risk and disrupt hormones.
research A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Determine the Effectiveness of Botanically Derived Inhibitors of 5-α-Reductase in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Plant extracts effectively reduce hair loss and increase growth, offering a safe alternative treatment.
research The effects of finasteride on scalp skin and serum androgen levels in men with androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride effectively reduces hair loss by decreasing androgen levels.
research Androgenic Effects on Ventricular Repolarization
ADT, especially enzalutamide, may increase the risk of heart rhythm problems and sudden death in men.
research Platelet-rich plasma for androgenetic alopecia: Does it work? Evidence from meta analysis
PRP treatment may increase hair density and reduce hair loss, but more research is needed.
research Expression of mRNA for androgen receptor, 5alpha-reductase and 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in human dermal papilla cells
Hair sensitivity to androgens is partly controlled by specific enzyme expressions in different hair areas.
research Androgen Action in the Ovary
Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.
research A Mechanistic Model of Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment for Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP treatment may stimulate hair growth by promoting blood vessel formation, increasing growth factors, and preventing cell death.
research Potential targets in the discovery of new hair growth promoters for androgenic alopecia
The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.
research Vitamin D and androgen receptor-targeted therapy for triple-negative breast cancer
Targeting vitamin D and androgen receptors may effectively treat triple-negative breast cancer, especially with chemotherapy.
research Androgen insufficiency in women: diagnostic and therapeutic implications
Testosterone replacement can help women with low libido and mood, but they need to have enough estrogen first to avoid side effects.
research Androgen binding profiles of two distinct nuclear androgen receptors in Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulatus)
Different types of androgens bind differently to two receptors, AR1 and AR2, in Atlantic croaker's brain and ovarian tissues, suggesting these receptors may control different androgen actions in fish.
research 5α-Reductase type 2 gene variant associations with prostate cancer risk, circulating hormone levels and androgenetic alopecia
A49T gene variant linked to higher prostate cancer risk, lower hormone levels, and slightly reduced balding risk.
research Established risk factors for coronary heart disease are unrelated to androgen-induced baldness in female-to-male transsexuals
Baldness caused by male hormones in female-to-male transsexuals doesn't increase the risk of heart disease.
research Meta-analysis of efficacy of platelet-rich plasma therapy for androgenetic alopecia
PRP therapy may effectively treat hair loss, but more research needed.
research Early Onset of Androgenetic Alopecia Associated With Early Severe Coronary Heart Disease: A Population-Based, Case-Control Study

research Topical Minoxidil Therapy in Hereditary Androgenetic Alopecia
Using minoxidil on the scalp can help grow hair for people with hereditary baldness.
research Efficacy of non-surgical treatments for androgenetic alopecia: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
Low level laser therapy works best for hair loss, followed by PRP, finasteride, and minoxidil.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Significance of the polyglutamine tract polymorphism in the androgen receptor
The length of the CAG repeat in the androgen receptor gene affects the risk and progression of prostate cancer, BPH, infertility, and undermasculinized genitalia.
