A recent study,
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
The enrolled young premenopausal women's age range was (14-47 years). Around 78% were overweight or obese women. Eighty-percent of women had a mild FPHL, with a median of three years, where 2/3 of women had a duration <3 years with no significant relationship to FPHL severity. About 73% of women had either a mild to moderate hirsutism, and around 16% had acne. The biochemical HA was confirmed in around 52% of women (n=188), who show high levels of calculated FT. The calculated BT is high in 78.5% of women (n=284). The means of HA's biochemical indicators were in their reference ranges or slightly above, with no specific change pattern with the corresponding FPHL severity. None of these parameters had a significant relationship with the severity of FPHL. The FPHL duration was not affected by any presumed variable of clinical or biochemical HA.
Is There Any Association Between Clinical and Biochemical Hyperandrogenism in Women With Female Pattern Hair Loss? - PMC
Background The exact association between clinical and biochemical hyperandrogenism (HA) is heterogeneous and cannot be ascertained, especially in normoandrogenic women. Objectives Evaluate any association between clinical phenotypes and biochemical ...
