Introduction: Finasteride has been the standard medical treatment for androgenetic alopecia (AGA) for over 20 years. We started AGA treatment with finasteride in 1999 in Japan, and have demonstrated 3 investigations as long-term and/or large-scale studies (3,177 cases in 2.5 years, 801 cases in 5 years, 532 cases in 10 years, respectively). The objective of this study is to summarize the three investigations, and to consider it as a base for future studies over the next 20 to 30 or more years. Methods: Vertex photographs and/or forehead photographs were taken and recorded for every patient at each examination and used for evaluation for more than 20 years. Efficacy was assessed using the Norwood-Hamilton scale (N-H) and the modified global photographic assessment (MGPA) score, which is the standardized 7-point rating score using scalp photographs. Adverse reactions were assessed through self-reported evaluations by patients in two investigations Results: All three of the investigations demonstrated high evaluations of improvement (MGPA≧5; 87.1%, 99.4%, and 91.5%, respectively), and higher evaluations of prevention of disease progression (MGPA≧4; 99.6%, 100%, and 99.1%, respectively). Furthermore, the early-stage AGA group (N-H I-III at first visit) and the younger group (less than 40 years of age at first visit) showed more improvement with long-term AGA treatment with finasteride than the other groups did. Two of the investigations showed safety of long-term AGA treatment with finasteride, revealing the low onset rates of adverse reactions (adverse reactions: 0.7% in 2.5 years and 6.8% in 10 years, respectively). Neither of the two investigations recognized Post Finasteride Syndrome adverse reaction at all. Conclusion: Long-term (greater than 10 years) AGA treatment with finasteride 1 mg/day demonstrated a high efficacy and safety based on large-scale studies in Japanese men. For patients at the early stage of classification of AGA (within N-H I-III or earlier) and/or younger than 40 years of age, we recommend starting treatment with 1 mg/day finasteride.

This article evaluates 18 patients (2 male and 16 females), 19-35 years of age, with the clinical diagnosis of trichotillomania (TTM). They were followed monthly, and labs done every two months. The nutritional treatment is outlined specifically with explanations given for dosage and frequency of administration. At four months of treatment, the TTM-affected areas showed hair regrowth with trichoscopy. Numerous references are quoted for documentation of various nutrients affecting psychiatric behavior in a positive manner.

A small number of case reports seem to suggest a relationship between vitamin D deficiency and hair thinning. This article takes a look at the link between vitamin D and hair loss and examines the role of vitamin D in hair growth. Although comprehensive research on the direct link between vitamin D deficiency and hair loss in androgenetic alopecia remains incomplete, this article will discuss what we do know so that you can consider supplementation as a potential medical treatment for hair loss in patients where vitamin D deficiency is identified.
