research Medical Treatment of Alopecia
The most effective treatments for hair loss are minoxidil, finasteride, PRP, and hair transplants, with steroids and immunosuppressants for autoimmune types.
research Penis Endocrinology
Hormones, especially testosterone and DHT, are key for penis development and function, and testosterone therapy may help with erectile dysfunction in those with low levels.
research Poster Abstracts
The model and estimator can predict drug exposure in kidney transplant patients well.
research The acne hormones
Eating high-glycemic and dairy foods can increase hormones that may cause acne and other health issues.
research Effect of neurosteroid dehydroepiandrosterone on the higher nervous activity of old non-human primates
DHEA improved brain function and behavior in old monkeys and had additional health benefits.
research Basics of Hormonal Contraception
Hormonal contraceptives are effective for teens but require careful consideration of side effects and individual health.
research Female pattern hair loss
Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.
research Treatment of hyperandrogenic alopecia in women
Flutamide may slightly improve hair loss in women, but finasteride does not work.
research MENSTRUAL DISORDERS IN ADOLESCENTS
The document concludes that early recognition and treatment of PCOS in adolescents is crucial for managing symptoms and long-term health risks.
research 5α-Reductase type 2 gene variant associations with prostate cancer risk, circulating hormone levels and androgenetic alopecia
A49T gene variant linked to higher prostate cancer risk, lower hormone levels, and slightly reduced balding risk.
research Influence of spironolactone treatment on endothelial function in non-obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Spironolactone improved blood vessel function and cholesterol levels in non-obese women with PCOS.
research Role of androgens in female-pattern androgenetic alopecia, either alone or associated with other symptoms of hyperandrogenism
Androgens significantly affect female hair loss, and hormonal treatments may help.
research Ketoconazole Therapy for Women with Acne and/or Hirsutism
Ketoconazole reduced hair growth and improved acne in women, but caused side effects needing careful monitoring.
research Finasteride versus cyproterone acetate-estrogen regimens in the treatment of hirsutism
Finasteride and CPA-EE2 equally reduce hirsutism, but affect hormone levels differently.
research Adiponectin Signaling Regulates Lipid Production in Human Sebocytes
Adiponectin boosts lipid production in skin cells, potentially helping treat skin conditions with low sebum.
research Minoxidil Sulfation in the Hair Follicle
Minoxidil helps hair growth by activating enzymes in hair follicles.
research A randomized, investigator-blinded, controlled, split-scalp study of the efficacy and safety of a 1550-nm fractional erbium-glass laser, used in combination with topical 5% minoxidil versus 5% minoxidil alone, for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
Laser and minoxidil combo promotes better hair growth than minoxidil alone, safely.
research Finasteride Treatment of Hair Loss in Women
Finasteride may help some women with hair loss, but better options exist.
research Relationship between Serum Concentrations, Hemodynamic Effects, and Cardiovascular Lesions in Dogs Treated with Minoxidil
Higher minoxidil doses in dogs cause faster heart rate, lower blood pressure, and heart issues.
research New approaches to the treatment of osteoporosis
Future osteoporosis treatments should focus on increasing bone growth, with many promising options available.
research The Androgenic Alopecia Protective Effects of Forsythiaside-A and the Molecular Regulation in a Mouse Model
Forsythiaside-A, a natural substance, can protect against hair loss and is more effective than current treatments, potentially making it a good option for hair loss treatment.
research Cognitive effects of testosterone and finasteride administration in older hypogonadal men.
Testosterone improves mood and thinking skills; finasteride has no effect.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research Expression of AKT1 along with AKT2 in granulosa-lutein cells of hyperandrogenic PCOS patients
The study found that women with hyperandrogenic PCOS have higher levels of AKT1 and AKT2 proteins in their cells, which may lead to cell dysfunction.
research Procyanidins attenuate neuropathic pain by suppressing matrix metalloproteinase-9/2
Procyanidins from grape seeds reduce nerve pain by blocking specific proteins and inflammation.
research Dermal Papilla Cells Serially Cultured with Wnt-10b Sustain their Hair Follicle Induction Activity after Transplantation into Nude Mice
Cells treated with Wnt-10b can grow hair after being transplanted into mice.
research Voltammetric reduction of finasteride at mercury electrode and its determination in tablets
New, cheaper method measures finasteride in tablets accurately and quickly.
research Estrogen-Dependent Ontogeny of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus*
Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.
research An investigation of crosstalk between Wnt/β-catenin and transforming growth factor-β signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Wnt/β-catenin and TGF-β pathways affect hair loss, and activating Wnt/β-catenin could be a potential treatment.
