Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
research Alterations in androgen conjugate levels in women and men with alopecia
People with hair loss may have different levels of certain hormones due to changes in hormone processing.
research Management of Androgenetic Alopecia
Treatments for common hair loss include minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplantation.
research Androgenic Alopecia
The document concludes that treating female hair loss should target reducing excess androgen and blocking its effects on hair follicles, with the best treatments being hormonal therapy, adrenal suppression, and topical minoxidil.
research Metabolic dysfunction in female mice with disruption of 5α-reductase 1
Female mice with disrupted 5α-reductase 1 had significant metabolic issues, including stress response problems, insulin resistance, liver fat buildup, and obesity.

Pre-operative hormone treatment for hypospadias surgery might improve outcomes, but more research is needed to confirm.
research Selective androgen receptor modulators: a critical appraisal
SARMs show promise but need more evidence to prove they're better than traditional androgens.
research Patterned androgenic alopecia in normal women
Patterned hair loss is relatively common in women and not usually a sign of serious health issues.
research [Androgenetic alopecia in the male. Recent developments].

Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone production in skin cells through a process involving reactive oxygen species, which could be a new target for treating hair loss and other skin conditions driven by testosterone.
research Alterations in androgen conjugate levels in women and men with alopecia
Women with hair loss have higher androgen levels, while men with early balding have altered androgen ratios.
