research Fetal Programming of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome by Androgen Excess: Evidence from Experimental, Clinical, and Genetic Association Studies
Exposure to too much androgen before birth might cause polycystic ovary syndrome later in life.
research The pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome
Insulin resistance is a key factor in polycystic ovary syndrome, but genetics may also contribute.
research 46,XY DSD due to impaired androgen production
Impaired androgen production in 46,XY DSDs causes ambiguous genitalia and requires long-term care.
research Basics of androgen synthesis and action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Association of Insulin Resistance with Hyperandrogenia in Women
Insulin resistance is linked to high male hormone levels in women, often seen in those with PCOS.
research Adrenal causes of endocrine hypertension in childhood or adolescence
Adrenal disorders often cause high blood pressure in young people.
research The pediatric origins of polycystic ovary syndrome
Early signs of PCOS in girls, like irregular periods and polycystic ovaries, suggest a need for early diagnosis and intervention to prevent further health issues.
research Cutaneous Androgen Metabolism: Basic Research and Clinical Perspectives
Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.
research Clinical and endocrine characteristics of the main polycystic ovary syndrome phenotypes
Different types of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have varying severity, with Type I being the most severe and common.
research Results of clinical examinations, laboratory tests, and ultrasonography in dogs with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism treated with trilostane
Trilostane effectively and safely treats dogs with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, improving symptoms and adrenal gland size.
research Neuroimmunoregulation of Androgens in the Adrenal Gland and the Skin
Cytokines and neuropeptides are key in controlling androgen levels, affecting skin and hair conditions.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroidal compounds could be effective for treating conditions related to 5α-reductase enzyme activity.
research Recent Advances in the Chemistry and Pharmacological Activity of New Steroidal Antiandrogens and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New compounds show promise for treating hair loss, enlarged prostate, and prostate cancer, with some being more effective and having different side effects than current treatments.
research 5 Alpha - Reductase and Metabolic Syndrome in PCOS Patients
A higher testosterone/dihydrotestosterone ratio in PCOS patients may indicate worse metabolic health.
research Insulin Resistance and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Insulin resistance is linked to PCOS and can lead to other health issues, but treatments like metformin can help manage symptoms.
research Hirsutism
Excessive hair growth in women, often from high androgen levels, is usually caused by PCOS, and can be treated with hair removal, medication, and possibly weight loss.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Polycystic ovarian syndrome and associated hirsutism in the adolescent
Early diagnosis and treatment of PCOS in teenagers can help prevent more severe adult PCOS.
research Hyperadrenocorticism in Ferrets
Hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets is linked to neutering and indoor housing, and is best treated with surgery and a deslorelin implant.
research Pharmacological Options for Treatment of Hyperandrogenic Disorders
Different drugs can treat high male hormone levels in women, but they have various effects and some may harm a fetus.
research Testicular Steroidogenesis
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research A Teenage Girl with Unexpected Pubertal Changes
