Hair analysis can help diagnose adrenal disorders non-invasively.
research The role of androgen therapy
Androgens, male hormones, play a role in both men and women's health, and testosterone therapy can help women with low levels, but it's not suitable for pregnant or lactating women, or those with certain conditions.
research Sources of variation in hair cortisol in wild and captive non-human primates
Hair cortisol levels in primates are useful for stress assessment but vary by age, sex, species, and hair collection methods.
research Analysis of hair cortisol levels in captive chimpanzees: Effect of various methods on cortisol stability and variability
Hair cortisol analysis is a reliable tool for monitoring long-term stress in captive chimpanzees if certain variables are controlled.
research The validation of estradiol extraction and analysis from hair
Hair can reliably measure average estradiol levels over months in humans and monkeys.
research Influence of external factors on hair cortisol concentrations
External factors can significantly affect hair cortisol levels, so it's not always a reliable stress marker.

research A Systematic Review of Outcomes and Patient Satisfaction Following Surgical and Non-surgical Treatments for Hair Loss
Both surgical and non-surgical hair loss treatments lack a standard treatment plan and sufficient patient satisfaction data.
research Triglycerides, independent of Ferriman Gallwey Score, is a main determinant of free testosterone index in PCOS
High triglyceride levels are a key factor affecting testosterone levels in women with PCOS.

research Change in hair growth-related gene expression profile in human isolated hair follicles induced by 5-alpha reductase inhibitors – dutasteride and finasteride – in the presence of testosterone
Dutasteride and finasteride can help increase hair growth gene expression but need further improvement.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is a rare inherited disease causing hormone imbalances, affecting growth, fertility, and heart health, diagnosed through blood tests and treated with medication and lifestyle changes.
