Hedgehog pathway inhibitors used for skin cancer can cause significant hair loss, which may improve after stopping the medication.
research Patterned androgenic alopecia in women
"Male-pattern" hair loss is common in women, especially after menopause, and doesn't always mean there's a problem with hormone balance.
research MALE PATTERN ALOPECIA
The document concludes that advancements in hair restoration surgery have led to more natural results and patient satisfaction, with hope for future improvements in treatment.
research Case Report: Paired vertex-occipital assessment reveals donor-area involvement in diffuse unpatterned alopecia
Diffuse unpatterned alopecia can affect donor areas, but treatment with finasteride and minoxidil can improve hair density.
research Biochemical and trichological characterization of diffuse alopecia in women
Diffuse alopecia in women may be related to androgens and iron deficiency, and basic hormone and nutrient screening is useful.
research Histologic response to topically applied minoxidil in male-pattern alopecia
Minoxidil can help grow hair and make hair follicles bigger, but it can also cause side effects.
research The efficacy of 3% minoxidil vs. combined 3% minoxidil and Korean red ginseng in treating female pattern alopecia
Minoxidil with Korean red ginseng improves hair density and thickness more than minoxidil alone.
research Serum 25 hydroxyvitamin D levels in alopecia areata, female pattern hair loss, and male androgenetic alopecia in a Chinese population
Low vitamin D levels are linked to different types of hair loss.
research Topical finasteride for the treatment of male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: a review of the current literature
Topical finasteride helps regrow hair and reduce hair loss in men and women.
research Androgenetic, Diffuse and Senescent Alopecia in Men: Practical Evaluation and Management
The conclusion is that treatments like finasteride and minoxidil can prevent baldness progression and improve hair density, but more research is needed on other therapies.
research Evaluation of efficacy of QR 678 and QR678 neo hair growth factor formulation for the treatment of female pattern alopecia in patients with PCOS—A prospective study
QR 678 and QR678 Neo treatments are effective for hair loss in women with PCOS.
research Incidence of Female Androgenetic Alopecia (Female Pattern Alopecia)
Hair loss in women is common, starts in late 20s, and affects 30% of women over 50.
research Role of genetics and sex steroid hormones in male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: An update of what we now know
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss and its Relationship to Permanent/Cicatricial Alopecia: A New Perspective
Some women with common hair loss may develop permanent hair loss.
research Incidence of Female Androgenetic Alopecia (Female Pattern Alopecia)
Female pattern alopecia is common, starts in late 20s, and is not androgen dependent.
research Problems in pattern alopecia
Female pattern hair loss diagnosis is challenging and should use dermoscopy and histopathology instead of pattern recognition, as hormones may not always be the cause.
research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
FAPD and possibly CCCA may be AGA subtypes, and treatments combining antiandrogens, hair growth agents, hair transplants, and anti-inflammatories could be effective.
research Fortnightly review: Male pattern androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men is common, treatable, but not curable.
research Possible mechanisms of miniaturization during androgenetic alopecia or pattern hair loss
Hair loss occurs due to fewer papillary cells, smaller follicles, and shorter growth phases.
research The usefulness of trichoscopy in the diagnosing of fibrosing alopecia in pattern distribution
Trichoscopy is crucial for accurately diagnosing fibrosing alopecia in pattern distribution.
research Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research The Ludwig pattern of androgenetic alopecia is due to a hierarchy of androgen sensitivity within follicular units that leads to selective miniaturization and a reduction in the number of terminal hairs per follicular unit
Ludwig pattern hair loss in women results from varying sensitivity in hair follicles, causing fewer visible hairs.
research Male Pattern Alopecia A Histopathologic and Histochemical Study
Male pattern baldness involves smaller hair follicles, larger oil glands, and other tissue changes, but not major blood supply issues.
research The importance of adequate serum ferritin levels during oral cyproterone acetate and ethinyl oestradiol treatment of diffuse androgen-dependent alopecia in women
Having enough iron improves the effectiveness of a specific hair loss treatment in women.
research The usefulness of dermoscopy in canine pattern alopecia: a descriptive study
Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing hair loss patterns in dogs.
research Minoxidil and male-pattern alopecia: a potential role for a local regulator of sebum secretion with vasoconstrictive effects?
Minoxidil, a common hair loss treatment, might work by counteracting a hormone that reduces hair growth and promotes hair loss.
research THE PATTERN AND CLINICAL PROFILE OF ALOPECIA AREATA. PANORAMIC REVIEW: UPDATE AND ADVANCES ON ETIOPATHOGENESIS, ASSOCIATED FACTORS, DIAGNOSIS, COMPLICATIONS, MANAGEMENT AND PROGNOSIS IN TREATMENT 2023
