research Mechanism of androgenic alopecia: Addressing speculations through empirical evidences
Hair loss in men is mainly caused by hormones and genes, and while current treatments can slow it down, they can't fully stop it.
research The Androgen Excess and PCOS Society criteria for the polycystic ovary syndrome: the complete task force report
The report concludes that PCOS is mainly a condition of excess male hormones and its definition may change as new information is discovered.
research Prevalence of functional disorders of androgen excess in unselected premenopausal women: a study in blood donors
Many young women who donate blood have hormonal disorders like excess male hormones and PCOS.
research Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Exosomes Antagonize the Inhibitory Effect of Dihydrotestosterone on Hair Follicle Growth by Activating Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway
Substances from fat-derived stem cells can promote hair growth and counteract hormone-related hair loss by activating a key hair growth pathway.
research Androgenetic alopecia and microinflammation
Inflammation may be linked to hair loss, and targeting specific enzymes could help treat it.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern hair loss is genetic and influenced by hormones, with treatments like minoxidil and surgery available.
research An observational retrospective evaluation of 79 young men with long-term adverse effects after use of finasteride against androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride caused long-term sexual and non-sexual side effects in young men with hair loss.
research Hirsutism and virilisation.
Hirsutism is common body hair growth due to genetics and hormones, and while not a disease, it can be distressing; virilisation includes hirsutism with other male traits and needs medical attention.
research The promoter of an androgen dependent gene in the hamster flank organ
Researchers found a gene in hamsters that responds to male hormones and may be indirectly controlled by them.
research Simultaneous LC-MS/MS quantification of glucocorticoids, melatonin and its metabolites in hair
The new method can measure sleep-related hormones in hair effectively and could help track long-term sleep patterns.
research Male Pattern Baldness
Male pattern baldness is often genetic and linked to a hormone, with treatments like finasteride and minoxidil being effective for some men.
research Ovarian intratumoral 21-hydroxylase deficiency in a postmenopausal hirsute woman
A postmenopausal woman's masculine symptoms improved after surgery for a hormone-producing ovarian tumor.
research Experiences of discrimination during pregnancy predict altered neonatal hair cortisol at birth
Discrimination during pregnancy affects newborn stress hormone levels.
research Androgen Dependence of Hirsutism, Acne, and Alopecia in Women
Hirsutism is more linked to high androgen levels than acne or hair loss, and a mix of hormonal tests is best for diagnosis; certain treatments can reduce symptoms.
research Clinical markers of androgenicity in acne vulgaris
Acne severity in women may not be linked to increased male hormone indicators like excess body hair, menstrual irregularities, or hair loss.
research Is androgenic alopecia a result of endocrine effects on the vasculature?
Male-pattern baldness might be caused by the effect of hormones on scalp blood vessels.
research Message of protease nexin-1 is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and is affected by androgen
Protease Nexin-1 is found in human hair growth cells and is affected by male hormones.
research A rational approach to the diagnosis of polycystic ovarian syndrome during adolescence
Diagnosing PCOS in teenagers should focus on signs of excess male hormones and not rely solely on ovarian ultrasound or irregular periods, and should be reassessed in adulthood.
research Oxidative Stress in Follicular Units During Hair Transplantation Surgery
Adding more glutathione to the preservation solution doesn't reduce oxidative stress in hair transplants.
research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research Treatment of hirsutism by finasteride and flutamide in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Finasteride and flutamide effectively reduce hirsutism in PCOS women, with flutamide also lowering hormone levels.
research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.
research Menstrual Irregularities in Adolescent Girls and Correlation with the Extent of Exposure to Plastics: A Case-Control Study
Exposure to plastics may increase the risk of irregular menstrual cycles and symptoms of hormone imbalance in teenage girls.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Ovarian Hemangioma With Stromal Luteinization
The removed ovarian tumor was a rare type of blood vessel tumor that improved the patient's symptoms and hormone levels after surgery.
research Alopecia androgénica femenina: nuevos factores fisiopatológicos y futuras tendencias para un abordaje clínico más integral
New factors in female hair loss include genetics, hormones, stress, and inflammation; future treatments should also focus on these areas and consider the patient's emotional well-being.
research Segmental hair analysis - a retrospective testosterone diary?
Hair analysis can somewhat track past testosterone levels but is influenced by factors like hair washing, growth rate, sex, and hair color.
