Prevalance of Hirsutism and Hair Growth Pattern in Female Students
ABSTRACT Hirsutism is a difficult problem for both to the patients and the physicians. Its definition is subjective and the severity of hirsutism and the degree of acceptance are dependent on racial, cultural and social factors. The hair growth pattern, under the influences of genetic and ethnic factors, has significant variations among normal females. In order to determine the prevalence of h...
متن کاملThe relationship of the adrenal, thyroid, and pituitary glands to the growth of hair.
Since hair appears to be one of the most rapidly growing structures of the body, one might expect that it would serve as a sensitive indicator of the modifying action of hormones on general body growth. In this sense, alterations in the rate of growth of hair might be regarded solely as a reflection of any general metabolic changes induced by the hormones. On the contrary, it is possible that h...
متن کاملImpaired Hair Growth and Wound Healing in Mice Lacking Thyroid Hormone Receptors
Both clinical and experimental observations show that the skin is affected by the thyroidal status. In hypothyroid patients the epidermis is thin and alopecia is common, indicating that thyroidal status might influence not only skin proliferation but also hair growth. We demonstrate here that the thyroid hormone receptors (TRs) mediate these effects of the thyroid hormones on the skin. Mice lac...
متن کاملThyroid Growth and Cancer
It is proposed that most papillary thyroid cancers originate in infancy and childhood, based on the early rise in sporadic thyroid carcinoma incidence, the pattern of radiation-induced risk (highest in those exposed as infants), and the high prevalence of sporadic papillary thyroid cancers in children and adolescents (ultrasound screening after the Fukushima accident). The early origin can be l...
متن کامل[Thyroid and growth factors].
Although TSH is the major regulator of thyroid growth and function, the role of TSH in thyroid cell growth in vitro is controversial. Recent studies have shown that a number of growth factors, cytokines, vitamins, hormones and other reagents including iodide, lithium or retinoids modulate proliferation of cultured thyroid cells. Insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) stimulate growth of thyroid cel...
