Stress and alcohol affect brain chemicals differently in rats, mice, and humans, influenced by genetic differences.
research Retrospective evaluation of sex hormones and steroid hormone intermediates in dogs with alopecia
Most dogs with alopecia had higher than normal levels of certain hormones, but hair loss might not always be linked to these hormone changes.
research Steroid Chemistry and Hormone Controls during the Hair Follicle Cycle
Differences in enzyme activity and androgen receptors in hair follicles may explain why hair loss appears differently in men and women.
