research Iron deficiency in female pattern hair loss, chronic telogen effluvium, and control groups
Iron deficiency common in women, not always linked to hair loss; more research needed.
research What do we know about phytotherapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia?
Some plant-based treatments can help with benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Female pattern hair loss: A clinical, pathophysiologic, and therapeutic review
No cure for female pattern hair loss, but various effective treatments exist.
research Prevalence and types of androgenetic alopecia in Shanghai, China: a community-based study
Chinese men have lower AGA rates than Caucasians, with type III vertex most common; family history is important.
research Interventions for nail psoriasis
Some systemic treatments work for nail psoriasis but can have serious side effects.
research Platelet-rich plasma for androgenetic alopecia: Does it work? Evidence from meta analysis
PRP treatment may increase hair density and reduce hair loss, but more research is needed.
research Androgenic Effects on Ventricular Repolarization
ADT, especially enzalutamide, may increase the risk of heart rhythm problems and sudden death in men.
research Venous and pulmonary thromboembolism and combined hormonal contraceptives. Systematic review and meta-analysis
Some birth control pills have a higher risk of blood clots than others.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome and insulin-resistant hyperinsulinemia
Insulin resistance contributes to hormone imbalances in many women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Electrolysis and thermolysis for permanent hair removal
The document concludes that electrolysis and thermolysis can permanently remove hair but calls for better regulation to ensure safety, and notes a possibility of hair regrowth and rare complications.
research GWAS for male-pattern baldness identifies 71 susceptibility loci explaining 38% of the risk
Researchers found 71 genetic regions linked to male pattern baldness, which account for 38% of its genetic risk.
research Evaluation of Female Fertility—AMH and Ovarian Reserve Testing
AMH helps estimate ovarian reserve but doesn't predict pregnancy chances; age is more important.
research Cutaneous Findings and Systemic Associations in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS often have more body hair, acne, and skin darkening, and these signs are linked to metabolic issues like insulin resistance and high cholesterol.
research Androgen Profiling by Liquid Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in Healthy Normal-Weight Ovulatory and Anovulatory Late Adolescent and Young Women
The research found that anovulatory young women have higher androgen and hormone levels than those who ovulate, suggesting immature hormonal regulation rather than a specific condition.
research Type 1 interferon signature in the scalp lesions of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata shows a unique type 1 interferon signature, suggesting potential treatment by targeting this pathway.
research Persistent erectile dysfunction in men exposed to the 5α-reductase inhibitors, finasteride, or dutasteride
Using finasteride or dutasteride may cause long-lasting erectile dysfunction.
research The effect of spironolactone on genital skin 5α-reductase activity
Spironolactone reduces the enzyme activity that converts testosterone to DHT, helping treat excessive hair growth in women.
research Epidermal abnormalities and increased malignancy of skin tumors in human epidermal keratin 8‐expressing transgenic mice
Mice with human skin protein K8 had more skin problems and cancer.
research Evaluation of DNA Variants Associated with Androgenetic Alopecia and Their Potential to Predict Male Pattern Baldness
DNA variants can predict male pattern baldness, with higher risk scores increasing baldness likelihood.
research The novel mechanisms and applications of exosomes in dermatology and cutaneous medical aesthetics
Exosomes can improve skin health and offer new treatments for skin repair and rejuvenation.
research Idiopathic Hirsutism*
The document concludes that more research is needed to understand excessive hair growth in women with normal hormone levels and regular ovulation.
research A preliminary study of finasteride in Tourette syndrome
Finasteride reduces Tourette syndrome symptoms, but results may be limited due to potential biases.
research Effects of melatonin administration on mental health parameters, metabolic and genetic profiles in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
Melatonin improved mental health and metabolism in women with PCOS.
research Overexpression of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) in LNCaP cells diverts androgen metabolism towards testosterone resulting in resistance to the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride
Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.
research Human type 3 5α-reductase is expressed in peripheral tissues at higher levels than types 1 and 2 and its activity is potently inhibited by finasteride and dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research Preconditioning with far-infrared irradiation enhances proliferation, cell survival, and migration of rat bone marrow-derived stem cells via CXCR4-ERK pathways
Far-infrared radiation improves stem cell growth and movement, helping heart therapy.
research Toward a Diagnostic Score in Cushing's Syndrome
The document suggests creating a validated score to diagnose Cushing's Syndrome and considers plasma steroid profiling as a simpler diagnostic method.
research Insulin resistance and obesity among infertile women with different polycystic ovary syndrome phenotypes
Women with PCOS are more likely to have insulin resistance and obesity, especially those with the most severe type I PCOS.
research Post-finasteride syndrome and post-SSRI sexual dysfunction: two sides of the same coin?
PFS and PSSD are similar conditions with persistent sexual dysfunction after stopping medication.
