research Management of Androgenetic Alopecia
Treatments for common hair loss include minoxidil, finasteride, and hair transplantation.
research Alopecia: unapproved treatments or indications
Many treatments for hair loss lack proper testing and FDA approval, so their effectiveness is uncertain.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone for women in the peri- or postmenopausal phase
DHEA may help with sexual function when used intravaginally by menopausal women but is similar to hormone therapy in other aspects and might cause more side effects like acne and hair loss.
research Interventions for female pattern hair loss
Topical minoxidil helps treat female pattern hair loss, but more research needed for other treatments.
research Angiogenin is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and stimulates hair growth
