research Clinical markers of androgenicity in acne vulgaris
Acne severity in women may not be linked to increased male hormone indicators like excess body hair, menstrual irregularities, or hair loss.
research Cutaneous Manifestations of PCOS
PCOS often causes skin issues like excess hair, acne, hair thinning, and dark patches due to hormone imbalances and insulin resistance.
research Dermatologie care behind bars
The first in-prison dermatology clinic in the U.S. faced challenges and found certain skin conditions common among inmates, with rare cases of serious skin cancer.
research Alterations in androgen conjugate levels in women and men with alopecia
People with hair loss may have different levels of certain hormones due to changes in hormone processing.
research Androgens and hair growth
Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.
research Animal Models and the Developmental Origins of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Increasing Evidence for the Role of Androgens in Programming Reproductive and Metabolic Dysfunction
High levels of androgens during early development may cause PCOS-like symptoms.
research Expression of androgen receptor coactivator ARA70/ELE1 in androgenic alopecia
The protein ARA70/ELE1 is involved in male pattern baldness, and lower levels of its short form may lead to hair thinning.
research Hair abnormalities and neurological disease
Hair changes could indicate neurological diseases and help monitor treatment.
research Increased androgen bioavailability is associated with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS and higher androgen levels are more likely to have fatty liver disease.
research Androgen excess is the key element in polycystic ovary syndrome
Too much male hormone is the main cause of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research Androgen Action in the Ovary
Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.
research Significance of the polyglutamine tract polymorphism in the androgen receptor
The length of the CAG repeat in the androgen receptor gene affects the risk and progression of prostate cancer, BPH, infertility, and undermasculinized genitalia.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: an-androgen-dependent disorder
Hidradenitis suppurativa improves with antiandrogen therapy.
research Androgen modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
research Macular Abnormalities Associated With 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Using 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors, drugs for prostate issues and hair loss, may lead to eye abnormalities in men.
research Androgen Biosynthesis and Gene Defects
Gene mutations can cause problems in male genital development.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Iatrogenic androgen and estrogen excess in a postmenopausal woman presenting with facial erythema, acne, and hirsutism
A postmenopausal woman's facial redness, acne, and excess hair were caused by too much hormone therapy for insomnia, but improved after stopping the treatment.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
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 Molecular Basis of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.
research Androgen Receptor Copy Number Variation and Androgenetic Alopecia: A Case-Control Study
No clear link between androgen receptor variation and hair loss, but more research needed.
research Three cases of androgen‐dependent disease associated with myotonic dystrophy
Women with myotonic dystrophy might get diseases related to male hormones because their body tissues are extra sensitive to these hormones.
research Clinical Utility of GnRH Analogues in Female Androgen Excess: Highlighting Diagnostic and Therapeutic Applications
GnRH analogues are effective for diagnosing and treating female androgen excess, offering a non-surgical option.
research ODP537 A 1.6cm Androgen Secreting Ovarian Leydig Cell Tumor Evades Detection on Multiple Imaging Modalities
A woman's small ovarian tumor causing high androgen levels was missed by several scans but found during surgery.
research Case Report: Postmenopausal hyperandrogenism misled by adrenal incidentaloma: a rare case of androgen-secreting ovarian adult granulosa cell tumor and clinical implications
Thorough evaluation and surgery are crucial for managing rare ovarian tumors in postmenopausal women with high androgen levels.
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Androgens in women
Androgens play a complex role in skin conditions like acne and hair loss in women, and normal blood levels don't always show true androgen status.
research PLASMA C19 STEROID SULPHATE LEVELS AND INDICES OF ANDROGEN BIOAVAILABILITY IN FEMALE PATTERN ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA
Women with female pattern hair loss have higher levels of certain androgens, suggesting increased androgen exposure to hair follicles.
