research Androgens and alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research Inhibition of rat α-reductases by finasteride: Evidence for isozyme differences in the mechanism of inhibition
Finasteride effectively blocks rat enzymes, but with varying methods and strength.
research Pharmacology of antiandrogens
Antiandrogens affect androgen-dependent body functions and are used for various medical conditions, with some risks like fetus feminization, but new forms like 17α-propylmesterolone show promise for acne without systemic effects.
research Ozone interactions with human hair: Ozone uptake rates and product formation
Ozone reacts more with unwashed hair, producing compounds due to scalp oils, which could lower ozone exposure but increase exposure to reaction products.
research Hair loss in women with hyperandrogenism: Four cases responding to finasteride
Finasteride improves hair loss in women with hyperandrogenism.
research Biomedical Applications of Layer‐by‐Layer Self‐Assembly for Cell Encapsulation: Current Status and Future Perspectives
Layer-by-Layer self-assembly is promising for biomedical uses like tissue engineering and cell therapy, but challenges remain in material safety and process optimization.
research Diagnosis of hyperandrogenism: clinical criteria
The document concludes that hirsutism is the main sign for diagnosing hyperandrogenism, which requires a detailed patient history and physical exam.
research Characterization of the serotoninergic system in the C57BL/6 mouse skin
Mouse skin can produce and process serotonin, with variations depending on hair cycle, body location, and mouse strain.
research Clinical and biological impact of the exposome on the skin
Environmental factors, hormones, nutrition, and stress all significantly affect skin health and aging.
research Androgenetic alopecia in children: report of 20 cases
AGA can occur in children with family history; early diagnosis and treatment important.
research Natural progression of male pattern baldness in young men
Young men with male pattern baldness lose hair density over time without treatment.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: reflections and hypotheses on aetiology and pathogenesis
FFA's causes may include environmental triggers and genetic factors.
research Near Infrared (NIR) Light Therapy of Eye Diseases: A Review
NIR light therapy may effectively treat eye diseases and improve brain function without side effects.
research Female Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update on Diagnosis and Management
FAGA diagnosis uses blood tests and trichoscopy, with treatments like topical minoxidil, oral anti-androgens, and hormone-modulating drugs.
research Genetics and other factors in the aetiology of female pattern hair loss
Female pattern hair loss has unclear causes, possibly involving genetics, hormones, and environment, and needs better treatments.
research Pyrene Excimer Nucleic Acid Probes for Biomolecule Signaling
Pyrene excimer nucleic acid probes are promising for detecting biomolecules accurately with potential for biological research and drug screening.
research MINOXIDIL: HOPE FOR THE BALD?
Minoxidil helps some bald men, but most lose hair again when stopping.
research Concomitant Use of Hyaluronic Acid and Laser in Facial Rejuvenation
Using hyaluronic acid fillers and laser together is generally safe and effective for facial rejuvenation, but careful planning is needed.
research Androgenic alopecia is not useful as an indicator of men at high risk of prostate cancer
Baldness at age 40 is not linked to a higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer.
research Association of metabolic syndrome with female pattern hair loss in women: A case-control study
Metabolic syndrome linked to female hair loss; waist size and high blood pressure important factors.
research Clinical Case Seminar: Postmenopausal androgen excess-challenges in diagnostic work-up and management of ovarian thecosis
The conclusion is that removing both ovaries is the best treatment for excess male hormones in postmenopausal women, with medication as another option, and managing insulin resistance is important for diagnosis and treatment.
research Does degree of baldness influence vitamin D status?
Baldness does not affect vitamin D levels in men.
research An Investigation of Apoptosis in Androgenetic Alopecia
Apoptosis contributes to hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
research Diagnosing Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency
Mild essential fatty acid deficiency can cause health issues and is worsened by low-fat diets.
research No metabolic impact of surgical normalization of hyperandrogenism in postmenopausal women with ovarian androgen-secreting tumours
Surgery to lower high testosterone in postmenopausal women with certain ovarian tumors doesn't significantly affect their metabolism.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves hormone-related hair thinning, shorter hair, and inflammation.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Over 50% of women over 50 experience hair loss, with minoxidil being the only proven effective treatment.
research A bibliometric study of scientific literature in Scopus on botanicals for treatment of androgenetic alopecia
Botanicals like green tea extract show potential for hair growth, but more research is needed.
