research Hormonal regulation of hair follicles exhibits a biological paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Clinical and biological impact of the exposome on the skin
Environmental factors, hormones, nutrition, and stress all significantly affect skin health and aging.
research Skin connective tissue and ageing
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Androgenetic alopecia in men and women
Androgenetic alopecia involves genetics, hormones, and can be treated with medications or surgery.
research Approach to the adult female patient with diffuse nonscarring alopecia
The document concludes that careful evaluation is key to diagnose and treat women with hair loss, with tests for thyroid, iron, and hormones as needed.
research Stress and reproductive hormones reflect inter-specific social and nutritional conditions mediated by resource availability in a bear-salmon system
Grizzly and black bears have different stress and hormone responses to salmon availability, influenced by nutrition and social competition.
