Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research The biochemical and phenotypic characterization of females homozygous for 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency.
Females with 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency have less body hair, no acne, normal fertility, and delayed menarche.
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 Radiolabel validation of cortisol in the hair of rhesus monkeys
Hair cortisol can indicate long-term stress levels, but hair growth rate differences may affect accuracy.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Early Detection in the Adolescent
Early detection and treatment of PCOS in teenagers is important to manage symptoms and prevent severe issues.
research Persistent escalation of alcohol consumption by mice exposed to brief episodes of social defeat stress: suppression by CRF-R1 antagonism
Blocking CRF-R1 can reduce alcohol intake in stressed mice.
research Normal Pubertal Development: Part I: The Endocrine Basis of Puberty
Puberty is driven by hormonal changes, mainly influenced by genetics, nutrition, and body fat.
research Divergent neuroactive steroid responses to stress and ethanol in rat and mouse strains: relevance for human studies
Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
research Chapter 7 Reproductive Dysfunction in Women with Epilepsy
Epilepsy and certain epilepsy drugs can lead to reproductive problems in women, but changing medication might improve these issues.
research Cross‐sectional relation of long‐term glucocorticoids in hair with anthropometric measurements and their possible determinants: A systematic review and meta‐analysis
Higher glucocorticoids in hair are linked to increased obesity measures like waist size.
research Studies on changes in the concentration of serum adrenal androgens in pubertal twins
Adrenal androgens are important for puberty and are influenced by genetics.
research Plasma Androgens in Children and Adolescents
Normal androgen levels need ACTH, and different mechanisms control adrenarche and gonadarche.
research HPA axis stress reactivity and hair cortisol concentrations in recently detoxified alcoholics and healthy controls with and without childhood maltreatment
Alcohol dependence affects stress hormone levels more than childhood maltreatment.
research Ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens during a woman's life span
Women's ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens change throughout life, affecting hair loss and health.
research Hair cortisol in drug-naïve first-episode individuals with psychosis
First-episode psychosis patients have higher hair cortisol levels, indicating early stress response issues.
research Frontiers in the (Neuro-)endocrine Controls of Hair Growth
Hair growth and health are influenced by stress and hormones.
research Insulin resistance is increased in alopecia areata patients
People with alopecia areata have higher insulin resistance.
research Hair glucocorticoid levels in Parkinson’s disease
People with Parkinson's disease have higher levels of cortisone in their hair, which may indicate chronic stress hormone dysfunction.
research Delayed Puberty
Delayed puberty often runs in families, can affect growth, and may need hormone treatment.
research Targets to treat androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome
The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.
research Precocious Puberty
Early puberty is more common in girls and African-American children, possibly due to nutrition, obesity, stress, and environmental factors, and is treated with hormone therapy.
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 Melatonin-Loaded Nanoparticles for Enhanced Antidepressant Effects and HPA Hormone Modulation
Melatonin-loaded nanoparticles improve antidepressant effects and HPA hormone balance better than regular melatonin.

Stress can trigger or worsen alopecia areata.
research Management Approaches to Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia in Adolescents and Adults; Latest Therapeutic Developments
Glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid therapy effectively manage Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia symptoms but have limitations.
research An implication for post-transcriptional control: Reciprocal changes of melanocortin receptor type 2 mRNA and protein expression in alopecia areata
Alopecia areata may involve stress-related changes affecting hormone receptors, leading to reduced cortisol production.
research PCOS: Perspectives from a Pediatric Endocrinologist and a Pediatric Gynecologist
The document concludes that early and personalized treatment for PCOS in adolescents is crucial to manage symptoms and prevent long-term health issues.
research Are Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome at Increased Risk of Alzheimer Disease? Lessons from Insulin Resistance, Tryptophan and Gonadotropin Disturbances and Their Link with Amyloid-Beta Aggregation
