810-840 / 1000+ results research Neuroactive steroids inhibit spinal reflex potentiation by selectively enhancing specific spinal GABAA receptor subtypes
Progesterone reduces spinal reflex activity by increasing certain GABA(A) receptor subtypes.
research Acne
Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.

Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might reduce it. AST decreases recurrence-free survival but doesn't affect overall survival or progression-free survival. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits.
research Hormonal Therapy for Acne
Hormonal treatments, including birth control and antiandrogens, can effectively treat acne in women.
research Androgen antagonists in androgen target tissues
Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.
research Idiopathic isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency combined with testicular germ cell tumor: Case report
A potential link exists between unexplained hormone deficiency, hair loss, and testicular tumors, suggesting thorough screening is needed.
research Estranys matins de febrer: Pauline Fondevila
Trienones are more effective at inhibiting the enzyme linked to hair loss than dienones.
research Metoprolol
Metoprolol and propranolol may cause hair loss.
research Prescribers alerted to potential adverse effects of finasteride and montelukast
research 2-Substituted 4-(Thio)chromenone 6-O-Sulfamates: Potent Inhibitors of Human Steroid Sulfatase
