research If women just had their hormones back the way they were! (for youthful feeling-balance your hormones!)
Balancing hormones can help women feel youthful and healthy.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Parathyroid Hormone Hormone-Related Protein and the PTH Receptor Regulate Angiogenesis of the Skin
PTHrP and its receptor can control blood vessel growth and hair development in mouse skin.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Involvement of neurosteroids in the control of prolactin secretion in sheep under basal, stressful and pregnancy conditions
Neurosteroids affect prolactin levels in sheep differently depending on stress and pregnancy conditions.
research New effects of caffeine on corticotropin‐releasing hormone (CRH)‐induced stress along the intrafollicular classical hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis (CRH‐R1/2, IP3‐R, ACTH, MC‐R2) and the neurogenic non‐HPA axis (substance P, p75NTRand TrkA) inex vivohuman male androgenetic scalp hair follicles
Caffeine may help reduce stress-induced hair loss.
research Does prolactin play a role in skin biology and pathology?
Prolactin may be important for skin growth and immune function.
research Hormonal control of pelage cycles in the short tailed weasel (Mustela erminea bangsi)
The pituitary gland controls seasonal fur color changes in weasels.
research Where Have the Periods Gone? The Evaluation and Management of Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea
The document concludes that Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea should be carefully diagnosed and managed to prevent health complications, using lifestyle changes and specific medications.
research Age-related changes in endogenous glucocorticoids, gonadal steroids, endocannabinoids and their ratios in plasma and hair from the male C57BL/6 mice
Male C57BL/6 mice show age-related fluctuations in certain hormones and their ratios in both blood and hair.
research Regulation of human dermal papilla cell production of insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 by retinoic acid, glucocorticoids, and insulin-like growth factor-1
Retinoic acid, glucocorticoids, and IGF1 increase IGFBP-3 production in human dermal papilla cells, affecting hair growth.
research Prolactin: A Mammalian Stress Hormone and Its Role in Cutaneous Pathophysiology
Prolactin affects skin health and may lead to new treatments for skin and hair issues.
research Human scalp hair: Modulation by various factors and hormones do estrogens inhibit or stimulate—A perplexing perspective
The effects of estrogen on human scalp hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Cell Types Promoting Goosebumps Form a Niche to Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Endocrine control of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Hormones and metabolism play a complex role in prostate enlargement, and more research is needed to improve diagnosis and treatment.
research HaCaT keratinocytes express functional receptors for thyroid-stimulating hormone
Human skin cells can respond to thyroid-stimulating hormone, affecting hair and skin health.
research The roles of hepatocyte growth factor family members in androgen-regulation of human hair growth. A comparison of the expression of hepatocyte growth factor family members, HGF and MSP, and their receptors, c-Met and RON, in isolated hair follicles from normal and androgenetic alopecia (balding) scalp.
Balding hair follicles have reduced growth factors and increased inhibitory factors, suggesting new treatment paths for hair loss.
research Serum prolactin and dehydroepiandrosterone concentrations during the summer and winter hair growth cycles of mink (Mustela vison)
Changes in prolactin and DHEA levels are not required for the start of mink hair growth cycles.
research Endocrine Controls of Skin Aging
Hormones affect skin aging, but only topical retinoids and estrogens are used in treatments now.
research The effects of epilation and hormones on the activity of rat hair follicles
Epilation doesn't affect rat hair growth; thyroxine speeds it up, while estradiol slows it down.
research Clinical uses for calciotropic hormones 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 and parathyroid hormone-related peptide in dermatology: a new perspective.
Vitamin D3 and parathyroid hormone-related peptide may have important uses in skin treatments.
research Cutaneous hydroxystereoid dehydrogenases and rat-hair-cycle
Certain enzymes react strongly with some hormones in rat skin during hair growth, mainly in sebaceous glands and hair sheaths.
research Androgens and Antiandrogens
Male hormones, or androgens, affect women's health in areas like mood and bone density, and hormone replacement therapy using antiandrogenic progestogens can improve mood disorders and alertness in menopausal women.
research Female pattern hair loss with acromegaly
Hair loss improved after removing pituitary tumor.
research Reproductive Endocrinology
