research Medical Treatment of Hirsutism in Women
Treating hirsutism in women often requires a mix of medications and cosmetic methods for best results.
research Basic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection. What endocrine systems could be implicated?
SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.
research Gynecologic and andrologic dermatology and the metabolic syndrome
Skin diseases linked to insulin resistance should be managed to prevent diabetes and reduce heart disease risk.
research A machine learning and network framework to discover new indications for small molecules
A machine learning model called CATNIP can predict new uses for existing drugs, like using antidepressants for Parkinson's disease and a thyroid cancer drug for diabetes.
research How far should we investigate diffuse alopecia in women?
Routine thyroid tests for diffuse alopecia in women may not be necessary, but checking for iron deficiency anemia could be useful.
research Mapping of cis-acting expression quantitative trait loci in human scalp hair follicles
Researchers identified genes in scalp hair follicles that may affect hair traits and hair loss.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Hair loss in women
The document concludes that hair loss in women is complex, often linked to aging, health conditions, and nutritional deficiencies, and emotional impacts should not be underestimated.
research An overview of herbal alternatives in androgenetic alopecia
Herbal alternatives like saw palmetto and green tea may offer safe, effective treatment for hormonal hair loss.
research Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an unpredictable autoimmune hair loss condition with limited and variable treatment effectiveness.
research 5α‐Reductase Isozymes and Androgen Actions in the Prostate
5α‐reductase isozymes are crucial for prostate development and health, and targeting them can help prevent and treat prostate issues.
research Differential Expression of miR-93 and miR-21 in Granulosa Cells and Follicular Fluid of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Associating with Different Phenotypes
The study found that certain microRNAs are higher in the cells and lower in the fluid of women with a specific type of polycystic ovary syndrome, and one microRNA could potentially help diagnose the condition.
research Alopecia Areata, triggered by psychological stress and successfully treated with a Janus kinase inhibitor. Case report
Stress-related hair loss was reversed with a special medication.
research Clinical and biological impact of the exposome on the skin
Environmental factors, hormones, nutrition, and stress all significantly affect skin health and aging.
research Screening of synthetic and natural product databases: Identification of novel androgens and antiandrogens
Researchers found new potential treatments for conditions related to the androgen receptor, like male hormonal contraception, by testing thousands of compounds.
research The biology and clinical application of systemic glucocorticoids
Glucocorticoids are powerful anti-inflammatory drugs that must be used carefully to avoid serious side effects.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Potential targets in the discovery of new hair growth promoters for androgenic alopecia
The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.
research Innovative use of spironolactone as an antiandrogen in the treatment of female pattern hair loss.
Spironolactone helps regrow hair in women with hair loss.
research Overexpression of Lnk in the Ovaries Is Involved in Insulin Resistance in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Higher Lnk protein levels in ovaries may lead to insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
research Non polycystic ovary syndrome–related endocrine disorders associated with hirsutism
Hirsutism can be caused by various conditions besides PCOS, and it's important to treat the underlying issue and manage symptoms with medication and cosmetic approaches.
research Controversies in plastic surgery: Suction-assisted lipectomy (SAL) and the hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) protocol for obesity treatment
The document concludes that the hCG protocol may help in obesity treatment and could be scientifically justified, but more research is needed.
research Melatonin and the hair follicle
Melatonin helps regulate hair growth and protects the hair follicle from stress.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss: a clinical and pathophysiological review
Female Pattern Hair Loss affects women's self-esteem and needs more research for better treatment.
research Is polycystic ovary syndrome a sexual conflict? A review
The conclusion suggests that PCOS may persist due to genetic traits that, while harmful for female fertility, could have provided survival and reproductive benefits to males.
research Where Have the Periods Gone? The Evaluation and Management of Functional Hypothalamic Amenorrhea
