research Hormonal Treatment for Skin Androgen-Related Disorders
Hormonal treatments can help with hair loss, acne, and excess hair growth, but it takes 3-6 months to see results and patients should know the possible side effects.
research PNU 157706, a novel dual type I and II5α-reductase inhibitor
PNU 157706 is a more effective treatment than finasteride for conditions caused by DHT, like enlarged prostate and hair loss.
research Metformin or Antiandrogen in the Treatment of Hirsutism in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Metformin is effective for treating excessive hair growth in women with PCOS and may work better than the standard treatment in some ways.
research Insulin resistance, nitric oxide, and fibrinogen levels in white hirsute women: Defining a new paradigm based on translational research
White hirsute women with PCOS have higher insulin resistance, but similar nitric oxide and fibrinogen levels compared to those with idiopathic hirsutism.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors, Chemical and Clinical Models
Researchers developed a model to predict how well certain compounds can block an enzyme related to hair loss and prostate issues, suggesting a 50 mg dose of finasteride might be effective based on lab and body data.
research Expression of type 1 5α-reductase and metabolism of testosterone in reconstructed human epidermis (SkinEthic®): a new model for screening skin-targeted androgen modulators

research Inhibition of 5α‐Reductase Activity in Late Pregnancy Decreases Gestational Length and Fecundity and Impairs Object Memory and Central Progestogen Milieu of Juvenile Rat Offspring
Inhibiting 5α-reductase during late pregnancy shortens gestation, reduces litter size, and harms memory in rat offspring.
research 8162 A Unique Presentation of Ovarian Steroid Cell Tumor Causing Hyperandrogenism in a Postmenopausal Woman
Surgical removal of a rare ovarian tumor improved symptoms and hormone levels in a postmenopausal woman.
research 5 Alpha - Reductase and Metabolic Syndrome in PCOS Patients
A higher testosterone/dihydrotestosterone ratio in PCOS patients may indicate worse metabolic health.
research Exploring the Clinical and Investigational Profile of Females With Hirsutism at a Tertiary Care Center
PCOS is the main cause of hirsutism, often linked to insulin resistance.
research The influence of ESR1 polymorphisms on selected hormonal, metabolic and mineral balance markers in women with hyperandrogenism
Certain ESR1 gene variations may affect hormone levels and fat distribution in women with high male hormone levels.
research The impact of 1-hour plasma glucose on the metabolic characteristics and pregnancy outcomes in polycystic ovary syndrome
High 1-hour plasma glucose in PCOS increases risks of metabolic issues and gestational diabetes.
research 174 Changes in urine androgen and PG levels during finasteride treatment
Finasteride treatment lowers urine androgen and prostaglandin levels, making them potential markers for effectiveness.
research Retrospective evaluation of sex hormones and steroid hormone intermediates in dogs with alopecia
Most dogs with alopecia had higher than normal levels of certain hormones, but hair loss might not always be linked to these hormone changes.
research Screening of synthetic and natural product databases: Identification of novel androgens and antiandrogens
Researchers found new potential treatments for conditions related to the androgen receptor, like male hormonal contraception, by testing thousands of compounds.
research Ovarian Stromal Hyperthecosis and Hyperandrogenemia Refractory to Hormonal Suppression
Removing both ovaries may better treat increased male hormone levels and related symptoms in postmenopausal women when hormone therapy doesn't work.
research The human skin as a hormone target and an endocrine gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Dihydrotestosteron und die Rolle der 5α-Reduktasehemmer bei der benignen Prostatahyperplasie
A stronger dual 5α-reductase inhibitor could improve treatment for benign prostatic hyperplasia by further reducing DHT levels.
research [Hirsutism and hypertrichosis in adults: investigations and treatment].
The document concludes that treatment for excessive hair growth depends on the cause, with options including hair removal methods and medications like anti-androgens or insulin-sensitizing drugs.
