Scalp condition healed with prednisone and tacrolimus.
research Latanoprost
A woman got a scalp condition from using latanoprost, but it improved after stopping the drug and starting other treatments.
research AN ATTEMPT TO ASSESS THE MAGNITUDE OF ENDOGENOUS ANDROGEN PRODUCTION IN A CASE OF THE ADRENOGENITAL SYNDROME*
A 17-year-old female with adrenogenital syndrome produces very high levels of androgens, which prevent complete feminization despite high estrogen doses.
research Antiandrogen therapy in hidradenitis suppurativa: finasteride for females
Finasteride helps reduce hidradenitis suppurativa symptoms in females.
research Estimation of serum aldosterone, free testosterone and DHEA-S and scalp androgen and aldosterone receptors in female androgenetic alopecia. Is the mystery solved?
