The document suggests more research is needed to understand the link between baldness and prostate cancer.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Medical management of male pattern hair loss
Minoxidil and finasteride can slow or halt hair loss, but may have side effects.
research Is androgenic alopecia a result of endocrine effects on the vasculature?
Male-pattern baldness might be caused by the effect of hormones on scalp blood vessels.
research Androgenic alopecia: A counterproductive outcome of the anabolic effect of androgens
Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.
research Male‐pattern baldness, common latent viruses, and microcompetition
Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.
research A Review of Herbal Medications for the Treatment of Alopecia
Herbal medications might be safer and more effective for hair loss than synthetic treatments.
