research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Stress-related skin disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research Hair follicle is a target of stress hormone and autoimmune reactions
Stress hormones and autoimmune reactions can cause hair loss.
research Stress and the Hair Follicle
Stress can cause hair loss and skin issues by affecting hair growth cycles.
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 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 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 Effects of Prenatal Treatment with Antiandrogens on Luteinizing Hormone Secretion and Sex Steroid Concentrations in Adult Spotted Hyenas, Crocuta crocuta1
Prenatal antiandrogen treatment altered hormone levels in adult spotted hyenas, affecting males and females differently.
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 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 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 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 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 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.
research Psychosis as a late manifestation of Sheehan’s syndrome
Sheehan's syndrome can sometimes cause psychosis.
research Endocrine systems of the skin
The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.
research Assessing the role of stressful life events in the induction and recurrence of alopecia areata: A case-control study
Stress can trigger or worsen alopecia areata.
research Endocrinopathies and Other Disorders Inducing a Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Phenotype
Some conditions mimic PCOS symptoms and need careful diagnosis to treat potentially serious health issues.
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.

Optimized conditions and specific treatments enhance the growth of hair cells from C3H mice.
research Local Injection of Triamcinolone Acetonide: A Forgotten Aetiology of Cushing’s Syndrome
Injecting steroids like Triamcinolone Acetonide for skin treatments can cause Cushing's Syndrome.
research Hair cortisol in polycystic ovary syndrome
