research Antiandrogen therapy with spironolactone for the treatment of hidradenitis suppurativa
Spironolactone helps reduce pain and lesions in hidradenitis suppurativa patients, and lower doses are also effective.
research OR20-01 Machine Learning-based Steroid Metabolome Analysis In Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Reveals Three Distinct Androgen Excess Subtypes With Different Metabolic Risk Profiles.
Machine learning identified three unique subtypes of androgen excess in women with PCOS, each with different metabolic risks.
research Pre-receptor regulation of the androgen receptor
Two enzymes regulate androgen receptor activity, affecting treatments for androgen insufficiency and benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Synergistic therapeutic effect of systemic steroids and dithranol in a patient of alopecia totalis—A case report
Combining systemic steroids and dithranol can effectively regrow hair in severe alopecia areata.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.
research Novel C-6 substituted and unsubstituted pregnane derivatives as 5α-reductase inhibitors and their effect on hamster flank organs diameter size
Certain compounds reduced hamster flank organ size by inhibiting 5α-reductase, like finasteride, without affecting androgen receptors.
research Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel androst-3,5-diene-3-carboxylic acid derivatives as inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1 and 2
New chemical compounds were made that effectively block an enzyme linked to prostate growth.
research Bi-allelic Mutations in LSS, Encoding Lanosterol Synthase, Cause Autosomal-Recessive Hypotrichosis Simplex
Mutations in the LSS gene cause a rare type of hereditary hair loss.
research The SAHA Syndrome
SAHA syndrome is a condition in women involving skin and hair issues, often related to hormonal imbalances, and is treated based on the underlying cause.
research Estimation of Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and Tumor Necrosis Factor–Alpha (TNF-α) Levels Women Diagnosed with Polycystic Syndrome
Women with PCOS have higher levels of DHEA, IL-6, and TNF-α.
research Urinary steroid analysis of women with effluvium
Women with effluvium have higher levels of certain urinary steroids, possibly due to stress and increased adrenal activity.
research [Clinical significance of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone metabolism in women].
Antiandrogens and finasteride may help treat excess hair and hair loss in women.
research Activity of steroid 4 and derivatives 4a–4f as inhibitors of the enzyme 5α-reductase 1
Compounds 4, 4b, and 4c effectively inhibit an enzyme linked to testosterone conversion without significant toxicity.
research A Case of Lean Idiopathic Hirsutism not Having Insulin Resistant Unresponsive to Conventional Treatment for Hirsutism-A Case Report
Idiopathic hirsutism may be linked to increased skin enzyme activity, and new treatments like laser and eflornithine cream show promise.
research Effects of Gonadal Steroids on Melanocytes in Developing Hamsters
Androgens increase pigmentation in young hamsters, but estrogens can reverse this effect.
research Differential Suppression of Testosterone and Estradiol in Hirsute Women With the Superactive Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist Leuprolide*
Leuprolide effectively reduces hair growth in hirsute women at higher doses.
research New Therapeutic Approach to the Hirsute Patient
Spironolactone can reduce hair growth in women with hirsutism.
research Receiver operating characteristic analysis of the performance of basal serum hormone profiles for the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome in epidemiological studies
Low SHBG and high FAI, FT, and DHEAS levels are effective in identifying PCOS.
research Comparison of cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol and finasteride in the treatment of hirsutism
Cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol is generally more effective in treating hirsutism, but consider side effects and patient characteristics.
research 215. Plasma testosterone and dihydrotestosterone in cryptorchid boys treated with HCG
research 12 Treatment of hirsutism with 5α-reductase inhibitors
New compounds may soon be tested to treat excessive hair growth in women.
research Sexual dimorphism of growth plate prehypertrophic and hypertrophic chondrocytes in response to testosterone requires metabolism to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by steroid 5‐alpha reductase type 1
Male cells need DHT to respond to testosterone, while female cells do not.
research Common Forms of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is mainly caused by enzyme deficiencies, leading to varying symptoms like hormone imbalances and physical changes.
research Preparation of3H-labelled testosterone metabolites
The conclusion is that tritium-labeled testosterone metabolites can be made and are better converted into dihydrotestosterone in skin cells than in prostate tissue.
research Etrasimod for alopecia areata: The scenario for a less extensive and moderate form
Etrasimod is safe but not effective for severe alopecia areata, though it may help milder cases.
research Human scalp hair: Modulation by various factors and hormones do estrogens inhibit or stimulate—A perplexing perspective
The effects of estrogen on human scalp hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Effect of Cyproterone Acetate Orally on Hair Density and Diameter and Endocrine Factors in Women with Idiopathic Hirsutism
