Androgens can help prevent memory problems caused by apoE4.
research Noninvasive method for assessing the human circadian clock using hair follicle cells
Scientists found a new, less invasive way to study body clocks using hair cells, which shows shift workers' body clocks don't match their lifestyles.
research Comparison of flutamide and spironolactone in the treatment of hirsutism: a randomized controlled trial
Flutamide is more effective and has fewer side effects than spironolactone for treating hirsutism.
research Testosterone therapy for transgender men
Testosterone therapy in transgender men has both desired effects like increased muscle mass and potential health risks such as higher cardiovascular risk.
research Probing the Effects of Stress Mediators on the Human Hair Follicle
Stress-related substance P may lead to hair loss and negatively affect hair growth.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia—Current Insights in Pathophysiology, Diagnostics, and Management
Early diagnosis and individualized treatment improve outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.

Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.
research S1-Leitlinie Post-COVID/Long-COVID
The guideline offers practical advice for diagnosing and treating Post-COVID/Long-COVID.
research Endothelial Dysfunction in PCOS: Role of Obesity and Adipose Hormones
Women with PCOS have heart-related issues not because of obesity, but due to insulin resistance and low adiponectin levels.
research S1 guideline for diagnostic evaluation in androgenetic alopecia in men, women and adolescents
Guidelines for diagnosing common hair loss include detailed history, clinical examination, and various diagnostic techniques.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
research Clinical and endocrine characteristics of the main polycystic ovary syndrome phenotypes
Different types of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have varying severity, with Type I being the most severe and common.
research Pathophysiological mechanisms implicated in postpartum depression
Postpartum depression is linked to changes in brain chemicals, inflammation, stress, and certain genes, and can potentially be identified by markers like specific steroids, serotonin levels, and vitamin D levels.
research Transfollicular drug delivery—Is it a reality?
Hair follicles may soon be used more for targeted and systemic drug delivery.
research The pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome: trying to understand PCOS and its endocrinology
The conclusion is that PCOS is caused by ovarian sensitivity to hormones and disrupted hormone control, possibly due to ovarian factors, and more research is needed.
research Androgenetic alopecia and microinflammation
Inflammation may be linked to hair loss, and targeting specific enzymes could help treat it.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Hair growth inhibition by psychoemotional stress: a mouse model for neural mechanisms in hair growth control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research Indications for a brain‐hair follicle axis: inhibition of keratinocyte proliferation and up‐regulation of keratinocyte apoptosis in telogen hair follicles by stress and substance P
Stress can cause hair loss by negatively affecting hair follicles and this effect might be reversed with specific treatments.
research Finasteride
Finasteride effectively treats baldness but may cause sexual side effects.
