research Association of a polymorphism in the ornithine decarboxylase gene with male androgenetic alopecia
research Evaluating 5 alpha reductase inhibitors for the treatment of male androgenic alopecia
Finasteride and dutasteride are effective in treating male hair loss but can cause sexual side effects and birth defects.
research Androgen Treatment in Women
Testosterone therapy can help postmenopausal women with low sexual desire but needs more safety research and should be used with estrogen therapy.
research Human androgenic steroids affect growth of dermatophytes in vitro
Androgenic steroids can slow down or stop the growth of certain skin fungi.
research Urinary Androgens Provide Additional Evidence Related to Metabolism and Are Correlated With Serum Androgens in Girls
The research found that measuring androgens in urine can give extra information about body metabolism and is linked to androgen levels in the blood, especially in young girls.
research A randomized, active- and placebo-controlled study of the efficacy and safety of different doses of dutasteride versus placebo and finasteride in the treatment of male subjects with androgenetic alopecia
Dutasteride 0.5 mg works better than finasteride and placebo for increasing hair in men with hair loss.
research Optimization of LC method for the determination of testosterone and epitestosterone in urine samples in view of biomedical studies and anti-doping research studies
Researchers developed a reliable method to measure testosterone and epitestosterone in urine for medical and anti-doping use.
research [Treatment of moderately severe virilism of women with Diane and Androcur 10].
Diane and Androcur 10 improved acne and seborrhea in most women, and hirsutism and alopecia in about half.
research Cortexolone 17a-propionate: A new antiandrogen acting on hair dermal papilla cells for the treatment of androgenic alopecia
Cortexolone 17a-propionate may be an effective new treatment for hair loss.
research Contraindicated use of 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors in women
The document concludes that women should not use 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors due to the risk of birth defects and limited effectiveness.
research An unusual circulating steroid profile in a virilized postmenopausal woman
A 68-year-old woman developed male traits due to a tumor in her ovary, which was removed, returning her hormone levels to normal.
research Protective role of hesperidin in finasteride-induced testicular toxicity in adult male Wistar rats: Insights into oxidative stress, apoptosis, and ultrastructure of seminiferous tubules
Hesperidin helps protect against testicular damage caused by finasteride.
research Eflúvio telógeno após dermatite de contato no couro cabeludo
Contact dermatitis treatment for alopecia areata can lead to temporary hair loss.

research Serum level of vitamin D in patients with alopecia areata
Alopecia areata patients have lower vitamin D levels than healthy individuals.
research Expression and Activity Assay of Human Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Type II in CHO Cells
Finasteride effectively inhibits the enzyme steroid 5 alpha-reductase II.
research Increased DHT levels in androgenic alopecia have been selected for to protect men from prostate cancer
Higher DHT in male baldness may protect against prostate cancer.
research Intermolecular NH 2 -/Carboxyl-terminal Interactions in Androgen Receptor Dimerization Revealed by Mutations That Cause Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations at Val-889 and Arg-752 disrupt key interactions in androgen receptor dimerization.
research Characterizing Dermatological Conditions in the Transgender Population: A Cross-Sectional Study
