research 1381 Molecular mechanisms of donor dominance in androgenetic alopecia
Hair pattern in androgenetic alopecia overlaps with scalp and bone demarcations, with distinct gene profiles affecting susceptibility.
research The Current and Emerging Role of Statins in the Treatment of PCOS: The Evidence to Date
Statins may help treat PCOS by lowering androgen levels and improving cholesterol.
research Pharmacokinetics of two different formulations of finasteride (topical and oral) in male volunteers with androgeneic alopecia
Topical finasteride may better target hair follicles without significant benefits over oral form.
research Comparative Gene Expression Profiling of Senescent and Androgenetic Alopecia Using Microarray Analysis
SA linked to mitochondrial issues and oxidative stress, while AGA involves disrupted hair growth genes.
research Comparison of clinical and laboratory characteristics of cases with polycystic ovarian syndrome based on Rotterdam’s criteria and women whose only clinical signs are oligo/anovulation or hirsutism
Women with only irregular periods or excess hair have a better hormone profile than those with full PCOS, but both groups are similar, indicating a need for better PCOS diagnosis methods.
research Hydroa Vacciniforme with Mucosal Involvement and Recalcitrant Periodontitis and Multiple Virus Re-activators after Sun-exposure
Women with early onset androgenetic alopecia have worse lipid profiles.
research Characteristics of serum immunoglobulin G N-glycans in male patients with androgenetic alopecia
Certain N-glycans may help assess hair loss severity in men with female-pattern hair loss.
research Clinical and Biochemical Characteristics in PCOS Women With Menstrual Abnormalities.
Menstrual abnormalities in PCOS women may not greatly affect their metabolic and hormonal profile.
research Bicalutamide and the new perspectives for female pattern hair loss treatment: What dermatologists should know
Bicalutamide, a drug with a good safety profile, is a promising new treatment for female pattern hair loss.
research A Comparative Study of Dyslipidaemia in Men and Woman with Androgenic Alopecia
People with early onset baldness have higher bad cholesterol and lower good cholesterol, increasing their heart disease risk.
research Cytokine Profiling in Primary Cicatricial Alopecia: Androgenic Alopecia and Leptin Connections
Certain inflammatory molecules and leptin may contribute to hair loss in cicatricial alopecia.
research Insights into Male Androgenetic Alopecia: Differential Gene Expression Profiling of Plucked Hair Follicles and Integration with Genetic Data
Gene differences found in hair follicles linked to male baldness.
research Androgenic alopecia: an entity to consider in adolescence
Hair loss, known as androgenic alopecia, can start in teenage years and may not always be hormone-related. It's important to do extra tests in young cases and remember it can greatly affect a teenager's mental health.
research In vivo and in vitro exposure to free fatty acids induce increased androgen production in animal models: a potential pathogenic factor of the polycystic ovary syndrome
Free fatty acids may increase androgen production, potentially contributing to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Carotid Intima-Media thickness (C-IMT) in androgenic alopecia patient
Women with androgenic alopecia may have a higher risk of artery problems.
research Androgenic alopecia in postmenopausal ovarian hyperthecosis
Hair loss in postmenopausal women due to ovarian hyperthecosis is rare, but removing the ovaries can significantly improve the condition.
research Minoxidil oral en alopecia androgénica: estudio retrospectivo acerca de su seguridad en práctica clínica real
Low-dose oral minoxidil is safe and effective for treating hair loss, with most side effects being mild and reversible.
research The role of inflammation and immunity in the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia.
Inflammation and immunity play a key role in androgenetic alopecia, with better treatment outcomes in certain immune-positive cases.
research Efficacy of metformin therapy in adolescent girls with androgen excess: relation to sex hormone–binding globulin and androgen receptor polymorphisms
Metformin works better for adolescent girls with PCOS who have certain genetic variations.
research ASSOCIATION OF ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA AND HYPERLIPIDEMIA
Men with a certain type of hair loss (vertex type AGA) may have higher levels of bad fats (triglycerides) and lower levels of good cholesterol (HDL), suggesting they could be at risk for high fat levels in the blood (hyperlipidemia).
research Psychological stress impact neurotrophic factor levels in patients with androgenetic alopecia and correlated with disease progression
Stress worsens hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Prostaglandin D2 inhibits hair growth and is elevated in bald scalp of men with androgenetic alopecia.
A substance called prostaglandin D2 is found more in bald scalps and it stops hair from growing. Blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.
research Interaction of spironolactone with rat skin androgen receptor
Spironolactone reduces the number of androgen receptor sites in rat skin by blocking them with its metabolite.
research Evidence for supplemental treatments in androgenetic alopecia.
The review doesn't clearly say if biotin, caffeine, melatonin, a marine extract, and zinc are effective for treating hair loss.
research A finasteride patch for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia: A study of promoting permeability strategy using synthetic novel O-acylmenthols combined with ion-pair
The finasteride patch effectively treats hair loss by enhancing skin absorption.
research Efficacy and safety of low-dose oral minoxidil in the management of androgenetic alopecia
Low-dose oral minoxidil is effective and safe for treating hair loss in men and women.
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 Clinical Case Seminar: Postmenopausal androgen excess-challenges in diagnostic work-up and management of ovarian thecosis
