New hormonal contraceptives are safer, have fewer side effects, and offer health benefits for women.
research Health and fertility in World Health Organization group 2 anovulatory women
Women with PCOS may take longer to get pregnant but can have a normal family size, and should manage their overall health to reduce long-term health risks.
research Safety of testosterone treatment in postmenopausal women
Testosterone therapy seems safe for postmenopausal women for a few years, but more research is needed for long-term effects.
research The endocannabinoid system of the skin. A potential approach for the treatment of skin disorders
Targeting the skin's endocannabinoid system could help treat skin disorders.

research Tamoxifen for flutamide/finasteride-induced gynecomastia
Tamoxifen effectively treats gynecomastia without causing impotence.
research Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Proliferation, Migration, and Differentiation of Epidermal Stem Cells and Progeny during Cutaneous Wound Repair
The vitamin D receptor is essential for skin stem cells to grow, move, and become different cell types needed for skin healing.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Phosphatidic Acid Has a Potential to Promote Hair Growth In Vitro and In Vivo, and Activates Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase/Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase Kinase in Hair Epithelial Cells
Phosphatidic acid may help hair grow by affecting cell growth pathways.
research Endocrine-skin interactions
Hormone imbalances can cause specific skin changes, which may help in early detection of endocrine disorders.
research Minoxidil-Induced Hypertrichosis
Minoxidil causes excessive hair growth, but depilatory agent removes it safely and effectively.
research The non-neuronal and nonmuscular effects of botulinum toxin: an opportunity for a deadly molecule to treat disease in the skin and beyond
Botulinum toxin has potential for treating various skin conditions and improving wound healing.
research Involvement of the Edar Signaling in the Control of Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)
Edar signaling is crucial for controlling hair growth and regression.
research Congenital hair loss disorders: Rare, but not too rare
Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.
research Monoterpenoid Loliolide Regulates Hair Follicle Inductivity of Human Dermal Papilla Cells by Activating the Akt/ ¥-Catenin Signaling Pathway
Loliolide can boost hair growth by activating specific cell pathways.
research Disruption of the temporally regulated cloaca endodermal β-catenin signaling causes anorectal malformations
Disrupting β-catenin signaling in certain cells causes anorectal malformations.
research Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type 1: an Italian survey on 158 patients
APS-1 in Italy shows diverse AIRE mutations and various autoimmune issues.
research A Review of hormone-based therapies to treat adult acne vulgaris in women
Hormone therapies like birth control pills and spironolactone are safe and effective for treating women's adult acne.
research Wound healing in development
Wounds heal without scarring in early development but later result in scars, and studying Wnt signaling could help control scarring.
research Recent advances in the treatment of psoriasis
New treatments for psoriasis have improved effectiveness and may reduce long-term side effects when combined with standard therapies.
research Does a male polycystic ovarian syndrome equivalent exist?
Early onset baldness in men may indicate a condition similar to PCOS, linked to heart disease, diabetes, and prostate issues.
research Anatomic location of primary melanoma: Survival differences and sun exposure
Where melanoma is on the body affects survival chances; melanomas on the back of the head are worse, while those on thighs and arms are less severe, and more sun exposure might improve survival.
research Epidemiological study of prostate cancer (EPICAP): a population-based case–control study in France
Circadian rhythm disruption, chronic inflammation, hormones, metabolism, and genetics may increase prostate cancer risk.
research Cross-species sensitivity to a novel androgen receptor agonist of potential environmental concern, spironolactone
