Spironolactone versus Bicalutamide in female pattern hair loss: A randomised clinical trial

Bicalutamide produced greater trichoscopic improvements than spironolactone; however, no significance between-group differences were observed in clinical endpoints. Limitations include a short follow-up period, single-centre design and per-protocol analysis, which may limit generalizability.

Abstract

Bicalutamide produced greater trichoscopic improvements than spironolactone; however, no significance between-group differences were observed in clinical endpoints. Limitations include a short follow-up period, single-centre design and per-protocol analysis, which may limit generalizability.
