research Ovarian Morphology Is a Marker of Heritable Biochemical Traits in Sisters with Polycystic Ovaries
Polycystic ovarian shape is a genetic sign of PCOS and its hormonal and metabolic features can be inherited.
research Effects of environmental enrichment on growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality, and hair follicle development of Rex rabbits
Using cans with beans improves Rex rabbits' growth, meat quality, and hair follicle density.
research The pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome
Insulin resistance is a key factor in polycystic ovary syndrome, but genetics may also contribute.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Androgen modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
research A descriptive study of alopecia patterns and their relation to thyroid dysfunction
Hair loss is often linked to thyroid problems, especially in women and older people, and screening for thyroid issues is advised for those with hair loss.
research Relations between sex hormone level and characters of hair and skin in healthy young men
Higher androgen levels do not cause baldness in men.
research No evidence for the immunocompetence handicap hypothesis in male humans
Higher free testosterone levels in men are linked to a stronger immune response, not weaker.
research The genetics of androgenetic alopecia
Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.
research Genetic Variants Associated with Hyperandrogenemia in PCOS Pathophysiology
Certain genetic variations are linked to increased androgen levels in PCOS, but more research is needed to understand these connections fully.
research Hormonal regulation in male androgenetic alopecia—Sex hormones and beyond: Evidence from recent genetic studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Hair Restoration Surgery in Patients with Hypotrichosis of the Pubis
Hair restoration surgery can effectively increase pubic hair density, with patient satisfaction and natural results largely depending on the chosen hair pattern and graft design.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research A Comprehensive Review of GWASs of Human Hair Traits
Genetic studies on hair traits can improve understanding of health and disease.
research Cardiometabolic and neuroimaging correlates of cognitive function in polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS have altered brain structure and reduced cognitive performance.
research Hyperandrogénie féminine
The document concludes that managing female hyperandrogenism requires a combination of identifying the cause, lifestyle changes, medication, and cosmetic treatments.
research SELF-CARE OF MALE PATTERN HAIR LOSS – Selfcare Journal
Two treatments for male pattern hair loss are minoxidil and finasteride, but they have side effects and may not satisfy everyone.
research Treatment of Hair Loss
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair loss, but continued research is needed for better treatments.
research Possible mechanisms of miniaturization during androgenetic alopecia or pattern hair loss
Hair loss occurs due to fewer papillary cells, smaller follicles, and shorter growth phases.
research Men with Kennedy disease have a reduced risk of androgenetic alopecia
Men with Kennedy disease have less chance of hair loss.
research Shorter CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene may enhance hyperandrogenicity in polycystic ovary syndrome
Shorter CAG repeats in a specific gene may increase male hormone activity and symptoms like acne and excess hair in women with PCOS.
research The Effect of 5 -Reductase Inhibitors on Erectile Function
5-alpha-reductase inhibitors may cause a low incidence of erectile dysfunction that decreases over time.
research Oral Contraceptives as Anti-Androgenic Treatment of Acne
Birth control pills can help reduce mild to moderate acne in women.
research What’s new in hidradenitis suppurativa?
The document concludes that awareness and understanding of hidradenitis suppurativa are increasing, but effective treatments are still needed.
research Three cases of androgen‐dependent disease associated with myotonic dystrophy
Women with myotonic dystrophy might get diseases related to male hormones because their body tissues are extra sensitive to these hormones.
research The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Acne
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) often leads to severe acne, and lifestyle changes and hormonal treatments can help manage it.
research Androgenetic alopecia: Update on etiology
