Low doses of BPA can increase prostate growth and change hormone levels in adult rats.
research Hormonal activity in commonly used Black hair care products: evaluating hormone disruption as a plausible contribution to health disparities
Common Black hair care products may affect hormone levels and potentially impact health, especially in reproductive and metabolic areas.
research Hormonal Treatment for Skin Androgen-Related Disorders
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.
research Androgenic Alopecia and Stress-Induced Premature Senescence by Cumulative Ultraviolet Light Exposure
Chronic exposure to sunlight may worsen male pattern baldness and protecting the scalp from the sun could slow it down.
research Evidence of increased DNA methylation of the androgen receptor gene in occipital hair follicles from men with androgenetic alopecia
Men with hair loss have more DNA changes in back-of-head hair follicles, possibly protecting them from thinning.
research Androgen Receptor Actions Modify Skin Structure and Chemical Carcinogen-induced Skin Cancer Susceptibility in Mice
Androgen receptor inactivation delays skin cancer onset and reduces incidence in mice, with gender differences in susceptibility.
research Induction of transforming growth factor-beta 1 by androgen is mediated by reactive oxygen species in hair follicle dermal papilla cells
Androgens increase a growth factor in hair cells by creating reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants might help treat hair loss.
research What is the Rationale for Androgen Therapy for Women?
Testosterone therapy can help improve mood, sexual function, and bone health in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed to establish safe and effective guidelines.
research Androgen regulation of a specific gene in hamster flank organs
