Kidney-yang deficiency syndrome causes hormonal imbalances and various physical symptoms.
research Acne
Acne is a common skin condition that can be influenced by diet, lifestyle, and hormones, and requires a treatment approach that includes psychological considerations.
research Alopecia areata as a clinical manifestation of autoimmune inflammation due to vitamin D deficiency
Lack of vitamin D might cause hair loss due to autoimmune problems, and fixing vitamin D levels could help treat it.
research Prolactin delays hair regrowth in mice
Prolactin slows down hair growth in mice.
research Idiopathic isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency combined with testicular germ cell tumor: Case report
A potential link exists between unexplained hormone deficiency, hair loss, and testicular tumors, suggesting thorough screening is needed.
research The human skin as a hormone target and an endocrine gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Gray Hair: From Preventive to Treatment
Gray hair can potentially be managed or reversed with treatments that boost melanin production and address nutritional deficiencies.
research The Hormonal Background of Hair Loss in Non-Scarring Alopecias
Hormones like androgens, estrogen, thyroid hormones, and stress hormones can contribute to hair loss, and treatments target these hormonal imbalances.
research Update on Melasma—Part I: Pathogenesis
Melasma's causes include genetics, sun exposure, hormones, and oxidative stress, and understanding these can help create better treatments.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Linking diet to acne metabolomics, inflammation, and comedogenesis: an update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research Advances in mitochondria-centered mechanism behind the roles of androgens and androgen receptor in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism
Androgens and androgen receptors are important for metabolic health, affecting how the body uses glucose and fats through mitochondrial function.
research Melanocortin receptor type 2 (MC2R, ACTH receptor) expression in patients with alopecia areata
Lower MC2R expression may contribute to alopecia areata.
research Hair follicle immune privilege and its collapse in alopecia areata
Hair follicles are normally protected from the immune system, but when this protection fails, it can cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Growth Hormone and the Human Hair Follicle
Growth hormone levels affect hair growth and loss, with too much causing excess hair and too little leading to hair loss.
