Certain signals are important for reducing specific chemical markers on hair follicle stem cells during rest periods, which is necessary for healthy hair growth.
research Pattern of Hyperandrogenemia in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome at a Tertiary Care Hospital
Free testosterone is the most common hormone marker in PCOS, and age affects DHEAS levels.
research Slow progress in prostate cancer
Finasteride reduces prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors; new drugs and better diagnosis are in development, but funding and industry commitment are challenges.
