Different hair removal methods have pros and cons, and more evidence is needed to prove laser treatments work.
research Prescribing testosterone and DHEA: The role of androgens in women
Testosterone and DHEA can benefit women's health but must be prescribed carefully due to potential risks.
research Crystalline Cataract and Uncombable Hair
The study found no common cause for a girl's crystalline cataract and uncombable hair, suggesting their co-occurrence might be coincidental.
research Analysis of hidradenitis suppurativa–linked mutations in four genes and the effects of PSEN1-P242LfsX11 on cytokine and chemokine expression in macrophages
The document concludes that certain mutations may contribute to the inflammation in hidradenitis suppurativa and suggests that targeting TNFα could be a treatment strategy.
research Steroid sulfatase inhibitors
Steroid Sulfatase inhibitors show promise in treating hormone-dependent disorders like cancers, hair loss, and acne, with 667COUMATE being a potential candidate for breast cancer treatment trials.
research Sunscreens and Hair Photoprotection
Hair sunscreens are important for maintaining hair's cosmetic value.
research Lack of a gonadal or adrenal androgenic mechanism for the hypertrichosis produced by diazoxide, phenytoin and minoxidil
These drugs cause hair growth without affecting testosterone or adrenal hormones.
research A population‐based nested case–control study: the use of 5‐alpha‐reductase inhibitors and the increased risk of osteoporosis diagnosis in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia
Taking finasteride for benign prostate hyperplasia may increase the risk of osteoporosis, especially at higher doses.
research Bone vs. fat: Embryonic origin of progenitors determines response to androgen in adipocytes and osteoblasts
Androgens affect bone and fat cell development differently based on the cells' embryonic origin.
research Voltammetric reduction of finasteride at mercury electrode and its determination in tablets
New, cheaper method measures finasteride in tablets accurately and quickly.
research Effect of the degree of acetylation on the physicochemical properties of α-chitin nanofibers
Lower acetylation makes chitin nanofibers thinner and more suitable for various uses.
research Reactive keratin derivatives: A promising strategy for covalent binding to hair
Modified keratin binds better to hair, especially bleached hair.
research Permanent waving and hair straightening
Thioglycolate lotions are the most popular method for permanent waving and hair straightening.
research Scalp comedones after topical minoxidil
