research Mechanical forces in skin disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research Regulatory roles of androgens in cutaneous wound healing
Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.
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 Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Androgen Profiling by Liquid Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in Healthy Normal-Weight Ovulatory and Anovulatory Late Adolescent and Young Women
The research found that anovulatory young women have higher androgen and hormone levels than those who ovulate, suggesting immature hormonal regulation rather than a specific condition.
research Role of androgens in female-pattern androgenetic alopecia, either alone or associated with other symptoms of hyperandrogenism
Androgens significantly affect female hair loss, and hormonal treatments may help.
research Androgens modify Wnt agonists/antagonists expression balance in dermal papilla cells preventing hair follicle stem cell differentiation in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens prevent hair growth by changing Wnt signals in cells.
research The Ludwig pattern of androgenetic alopecia is due to a hierarchy of androgen sensitivity within follicular units that leads to selective miniaturization and a reduction in the number of terminal hairs per follicular unit
Ludwig pattern hair loss in women results from varying sensitivity in hair follicles, causing fewer visible hairs.
research Regulation of masculinization: androgen signalling for external genitalia development
Male genital development is driven by androgen signaling and understanding it could help address congenital anomalies.
research Recent positive selection of a human androgen receptor/ectodysplasin A2 receptor haplotype and its relationship to male pattern baldness
A specific genetic mutation may increase male pattern baldness risk, especially in Europeans.
research No Evidence that 2D:4D is Related to the Number of CAG Repeats in the Androgen Receptor Gene
Finger length ratios are not linked to the number of specific gene repeats affecting testosterone sensitivity.

Adrenal disorders can cause lasting brain and behavior issues in children.
research Period problems: disorders of menstruation in adolescents
Menstrual disorders are common in adolescents and can be influenced by weight, activity, and health issues, requiring careful evaluation and more research for effective treatment.
research The Effects of Androgens on T Cells: Clues to Female Predominance in Autoimmune Liver Diseases?
Androgens may influence T cells, contributing to higher autoimmune liver disease risk in women.
research Cutaneous Manifestations of Eating Disorders
Eating disorders can cause skin problems that need treating the underlying condition for better health.
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.

Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome often causes sexual development issues, hair loss, learning disabilities, deafness, muscle contractions, limb pain, and diabetes.
research Female pattern hair loss, sebum excretion and the end-organ response to androgens
Hair loss in women not always linked to increased oil production; other factors may be involved.
research Oxidative stress management in the hair follicle: Could targeting NRF2 counter age‐related hair disorders and beyond?
Activating NRF2 might help treat hair disorders by improving antioxidant defenses.
research CAG Repeat Testing of Androgen Receptor Polymorphism: Is This Necessary for the Best Clinical Management of Hypogonadism?
Testing for CAG repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene is not currently recommended for managing hypogonadism.
