research Anti-Androgen Effects of Extracts and Compounds fromGanoderma lucidum
Ganoderma lucidum may help treat prostate cancer by blocking male hormones and slowing cancer cell growth.
research Transforming pomelo peel waste into multifunctional biomaterials for hemostasis and wound healing
Pomelo peel can be turned into materials that help stop bleeding and heal wounds better than commercial dressings.
research Saturable Binding of Finasteride to Steroid 5α-reductase as Determinant of Nonlinear Pharmacokinetics
Finasteride's effect on hair loss and prostate enlargement depends on its binding to an enzyme, with maximum impact at 0.2 mg dose.
research SEM/SDD-EDS—An analytical tool to identify water borne micro minerals pick up in human scalp hair cuticle due to water quality

Women with excessive male-pattern hair growth should get a full hormone check-up to find and treat any underlying issues, considering both medical and emotional aspects.
research Selective Sensing of Darolutamide and Thalidomide in Pharmaceutical Preparations and in Spiked Biofluids
A new, efficient method has been developed to detect darolutamide and thalidomide, drugs used for certain hair loss and prostate cancer treatments, in pharmaceuticals and body fluids.
research Azasteroids as inhibitors of testosterone 5α-reductase in mammalian skin
Certain 4-azasteroids are effective at blocking the enzyme that processes testosterone in human skin and could help treat acne, excessive hair growth, and male pattern baldness.
research The transcriptional repressor CDP (Cutl1) is essential for epithelial cell differentiation of the lung and the hair follicle

research RETRACTED ARTICLE: Pumpkin seeds (Cucurbita pepo subsp. ovifera) decoction promotes Trichinella spiralis expulsion during intestinal phase via “Weep and Sweep” mechanism
Pumpkin seeds may help expel parasites, but findings are retracted.
research Vitamin D, Lipid Metabolism and Prostate Cancer
Vitamin D may help regulate cholesterol and influence prostate cancer development.
research Anti-inflammatory loading of cinnamaldehyde on artificial bone scaffolds against the process of bone regeneration
Cinnamaldehyde helps bone healing initially but may slow healing later unless combined with DHT treatment.
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.
