July 2026 in “University of Southern Denmark Research Portal (University of Southern Denmark)” July 2026 in “Skin Appendage Disorders” This review addresses the issue of poor therapeutic response in female pattern hair loss (FPHL), highlighting that responses to standard treatments are often inconsistent. It identifies key factors contributing to this variability, such as pharmacogenetic influences, metabolic and endocrine disorders, treatment barriers, and advanced follicular miniaturization. Notably, androgen receptor polymorphisms and sulfotransferase activity may affect treatment efficacy. Conditions like obesity-related insulin resistance and polycystic ovary syndrome can worsen hair loss through hyperandrogenism and inflammation. The authors propose a three-step framework for managing poor responders, emphasizing the importance of identifying the primary contributing factor to tailor treatments effectively, rather than merely increasing treatment intensity.
July 2026 in “Editora Pasteur eBooks” Alopecia de padrão feminino (APF) é a forma mais comum de perda de cabelo progressiva em mulheres, caracterizada por afinamento folicular difuso, especialmente nas regiões central e parietal do couro cabeludo. É uma condição multifatorial influenciada por fatores genéticos, androgênicos e ambientais, impactando negativamente a autoestima e qualidade de vida das pacientes. Recentemente, a tricoscopia tem sido utilizada como uma ferramenta diagnóstica sensível, e novas terapias, incluindo agentes orais e intervenções, têm melhorado o manejo da APF. A revisão aborda a fisiopatologia, mecanismos de miniaturização folicular, e diferencia APF da alopecia androgenética masculina. O diagnóstico inclui tricoscopia e exames laboratoriais para excluir condições como deficiência de ferro e disfunções tireoidianas. A terapêutica abrange tratamentos convencionais e emergentes, como microagulhamento e tecnologias baseadas em energia.
