Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.

CT scans can find serious prostate cancer even when PSA levels are low.

Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might decrease the risk. AST also lessens the chance of cancer coming back but doesn't really affect survival rates. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits for different bladder cancers.

Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.

Testosterone may influence COVID-19 severity and outcomes.

Sex hormones may influence COVID-19 severity, with males at higher risk, and certain hormone therapies could potentially treat the virus.

Acne can't be cured but can be managed with treatments like benzoyl peroxide and diet changes; it's costly and can lead to scarring and mental health issues.

Menopause causes dry skin, wrinkles, and hair changes, with hormone therapy helping but not recommended just for these issues.

Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.

Hormonal treatments can help with hair loss, acne, and excess hair growth, but it takes 3-6 months to see results and patients should know the possible side effects.

Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are drugs that can control the effects of androgens in different tissues, potentially having fewer side effects and promising for treating various conditions.

New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.

Different substances that activate or block the androgen receptor can affect male development and treat conditions like prostate cancer.

AKR1C3 could be a treatment target for metabolic issues in PCOS.

Two new compounds can block androgen receptor activity in different ways and may lead to new treatments for androgen-related diseases.

Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.

Androgens affect many aspects of female health, and more research is needed to understand their roles and treatment potential.

Hydroxychloroquine may help treat benign prostatic hyperplasia by reducing inflammation and promoting cell death.

Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.

New steroid compounds may help with hormonal therapy and have potential benefits for glucose disorders, but more research is needed.

Male hormones can decrease the ability of immune cells to fight bacteria.

ERG increases SOX9, promoting prostate cancer growth and invasion.

Blocking androgen receptors boosts macrophages' ability to clear certain bacteria.

Hormonal interactions, especially involving DHT and estrogen, play a key role in BPH development and treatment.

Both estrogens and androgens are important for health in both males and females.

Blocking the virus's entry into cells by targeting certain pathways could lead to early COVID-19 treatments.

Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.

Gut bacteria can lower androgen levels in male mice.

Birth control pills combined with bicalutamide are more effective at reducing excessive hair growth in women with PCOS than birth control pills alone.

The same hormone can affect gene expression differently in various tissues, which could lead to new treatments for conditions like hair loss.
