Eccrine sweat gland's clear cells likely cause excessive sweating in hyperhidrosis.
research The Role of Micronutrients in Alopecia Areata: A Review
People with alopecia areata often have lower levels of vitamin D, zinc, and folate, but more research is needed to understand if supplements can help treat it.
research Revisiting hyper- and hypo-androgenism by tandem mass spectrometry
The document concludes that using LC-MS/MS for measuring androgens is more accurate than older methods, but it needs careful validation and standardized references to be most effective.
