Hair loss caused by longer latent hair cycle and sudden miniaturization, not gradual follicle size reduction.
research Hirsutism
Most women with hirsutism have it because of PCOS, and they need long-term treatment including medication and hair removal to improve their condition.
research Bioactivities, isolation and purification methods of polysaccharides from natural products: A review
Polysaccharides have many health benefits and are used in drugs, but isolating and purifying them is complex and requires careful methods.
research Psychological effects of androgenetic alopecia on women: Comparisons with balding men and with female control subjects

research Materialism, Transformation Expectations, and Spending: Implications for Credit Use
People who are more materialistic often expect life changes from buying things, leading to more debt and credit misuse.
research Hierarchical patterning modes orchestrate hair follicle morphogenesis
Hair follicle patterns form through a mix of self-organization and signaling interactions.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Sex hormone binding globulin - an important biomarker for predicting PCOS risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Lower SHBG levels may increase the risk of PCOS.
research Depression, anxiety and perceived stress in women with and without PCOS: a community-based study
Women with PCOS are more likely to suffer from depression, anxiety, and stress.
research Extracellular vesicle-based drug overview: research landscape, quality control and nonclinical evaluation strategies
Extracellular vesicles show promise for treating diseases but face challenges in development and regulation.
research The Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibition With Dutasteride and Finasteride on Bone Mineral Density, Serum Lipoproteins, Hemoglobin, Prostate Specific Antigen and Sexual Function in Healthy Young Men
Dutasteride and finasteride do not significantly affect bone density, blood fats, or blood production, but slightly lower PSA levels and minimally impact sexual function in healthy young men.
research Global Burden of Skin Disease as Reflected inCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews
The representation of skin conditions in medical reviews partly matches their real-world impact.
research Skin Manifestations in Primary Immunodeficient Children
Nearly half of children with primary immunodeficiency disorders showed skin problems, often as the first sign of their condition.
research Clinician vs Self-ratings of Hirsutism in Patients With Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Patients with PCOS rate their hirsutism higher than clinicians, and these self-ratings are more closely related to their quality of life and risk of depression.
research Health-related quality of life and psychological distress in polycystic ovary syndrome: a hidden facet in South Asian women
South Asian women with PCOS experience more psychological distress and have a poorer quality of life, especially in social relationships, with hirsutism affecting them more than obesity.
research Drug repositioning: current approaches and their implications in the precision medicine era
Drug repositioning is becoming more targeted and efficient with new technologies, offering personalized treatment options and growing interest in the field.
research Post‐COVID-19 syndrome: assessment of short- and long-term post-recovery symptoms in recovered cases in Saudi Arabia
Many recovered COVID-19 patients in Saudi Arabia still experience symptoms like fatigue and anxiety, especially older adults and those with other health issues.
research Investigation of the Plausibility of 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor Syndrome
The document concludes that sexual and psychiatric side effects from 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors are reported, but more high-quality research is needed to understand how often they occur.
research Responses of hair follicle–associated structures to loss of planar cell polarity signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Development of gene therapy for inner ear disease: Using bilateral vestibular hypofunction as a vehicle for translational research
Gene therapy, especially using atoh1, shows promise for creating functional sensory hair cells in the inner ear, but dosing and side effects need to be managed for clinical application.
research Deoxycholic acid in the submental fat reduction: A review of properties, adverse effects, and complications
Deoxycholic acid is effective for reducing chin fat but can cause side effects and serious complications, so careful patient evaluation is needed.
