Certain gene variations and irregular X chromosome activity may contribute to hair loss in women who can have children.
research Moth-eaten essential syphilitic alopecia
A 35-year-old man had patchy hair loss that was actually due to syphilis, not alopecia areata.
research Disturbance of Immune Microenvironment in Androgenetic Alopecia through Spatial Transcriptomics

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing patchy hair loss, often with other autoimmune disorders, but its exact causes are unknown.
research Haarverlies volgens het vrouwelijk patroon (female pattern hair loss).
Female pattern hair loss causes thinning hair on top of the scalp, treatable with limited success.
research Pathomechanism of androgenetic alopecia and new treatment
Male pattern baldness is caused by certain cells in hair follicles and could potentially be treated by targeting a specific growth factor, TGF-β1.

research The Genetic Architecture of Alopecia Areata
Genetic discoveries are leading to new treatments for alopecia areata.
research Concentric or Targetoid Regrowth in Alopecia Areata
The document concludes that a unique target-like hair regrowth pattern in alopecia areata may be more common than thought and should be properly identified.

Hormones and genetics play key roles in male and female baldness, which can affect mental health and may be linked to other health issues.
research Alopecia: evaluation and treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and FDA-approved treatments for different types of hair loss exist, but treatments for severe cases often fail and future improvements may focus on hair follicle stem cells.
