Women with epilepsy should be monitored for reproductive issues, which can be caused by epilepsy or its treatments, especially when using valproate.
research Oligomenorrhoea in Exercising Women
Irregular menstrual cycles in exercising women may be linked to energy deficiency or hormonal imbalances, requiring careful diagnosis for proper treatment.
research A neuroendocrinological perspective on human hair follicle pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Effect of topical application of raspberry ketone on dermal production of insulin-like growth factor-I in mice and on hair growth and skin elasticity in humans
Raspberry ketone may help grow hair and improve skin elasticity.
research Central Opioid Inhibition of Neuroendocrine Stress Responses in Pregnancy in the Rat Is Induced by the Neurosteroid Allopregnanolone
In late pregnancy, allopregnanolone reduces stress responses in rats by affecting brain chemicals.
research Dihydrotestosterone inhibits hair growth in mice by inhibiting insulin-like growth factor-I production in dermal papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research Molecular basis of androgen action on human sexual desire
Testosterone significantly affects sexual desire in both men and women, but its impact on women is more complex and influenced by psychological factors.
