510-540 / 1000+ results research A Review of Androgen‐Progestin Regimens for Male Contraception
Hormonal male contraception is effective and could be market-ready, but more research is needed to ensure safety for all ethnic groups.
research Comparison of clinical and laboratory characteristics of cases with polycystic ovarian syndrome based on Rotterdam’s criteria and women whose only clinical signs are oligo/anovulation or hirsutism
Women with only irregular periods or excess hair have a better hormone profile than those with full PCOS, but both groups are similar, indicating a need for better PCOS diagnosis methods.
research Acquired Progressive Kinking of Hair
Acquired Progressive Kinking of Hair is likely an early sign of male pattern baldness.
research Factors affecting the severity of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Longer hair loss leads to more severe CCCA; early treatment and avoiding damaging hairstyles help regrowth.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome is associated with atherogenic changes in lipoprotein particle number and size independent of body weight
Women with PCOS have unhealthy changes in their cholesterol particles that are not related to their body weight.
research The role of androgen therapy
Androgens, male hormones, play a role in both men and women's health, and testosterone therapy can help women with low levels, but it's not suitable for pregnant or lactating women, or those with certain conditions.
research Minoxidil may suppress androgen receptor-related functions
Minoxidil can reduce functions related to androgen receptors.
research Lack of effect of spironolactone on hair shaft diameter in hirsute females
Spironolactone did not make hair thinner in women with excess hair growth.
research Acne severity and the Global Acne Grading System in polycystic ovary syndrome
Acne severity in women with PCOS is linked to younger age, lower body weight, and more body hair, but not to hormone levels.
research High circulating oestrone and low testosterone correlate with adverse clinical outcomes in men with advanced liver disease
Men with advanced liver disease and high oestrone and low testosterone levels have worse health outcomes.
research Finasteride-Induced Gynecomastia in a 62-Year-Old Man
Finasteride caused enlarged breast tissue in a 62-year-old man.
research Androgen levels and apoptosis in the testis during postnatal development of finasteride-treated male rat offspring
Finasteride treatment in male rats can reduce fertility and affect sperm development in their offspring.
research Are 2D:4D finger-length ratios an indicator of androgenetic alopecia in males?
Right hand finger ratio may predict male hair loss.
research Investigating metabolic syndrome markers and body mass index changes in patients with acne vulgaris treated with isotretinoin: A prospective study
Isotretinoin effectively treats acne with low risk if dosed correctly.
research The ‘bald’ phenotype (androgenetic alopecia) is caused by the high glycaemic, high cholesterol and low mineral ‘western diet’
Western diet may cause male pattern baldness; low glycemic diet with magnesium could help.
research Evaluation of the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride on reproduction and gonadal development in medaka, Oryzias latipes
Finasteride negatively affects fish reproduction and gonadal development.
research The role of metformin in the management of polycystic ovary syndrome
Metformin helps improve symptoms and reproductive outcomes in people with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Serum concentrations of dihydrotestosterone are associated with symptoms of hypogonadism in biochemically eugonadal men
Higher DHT levels are linked to fewer hypogonadism symptoms in men with normal testosterone levels.
research The use of testosterone after menopause
Testosterone therapy can improve sexual satisfaction and mood in surgically menopausal women when used with estrogen, but its long-term safety and effects on naturally menopausal and premenopausal women are unclear.
research Salivary testosterone levels in infertile men
Men with low or no sperm count have lower salivary testosterone levels, and saliva testing can measure their testosterone well.
research Ovarian Leydig cell tumor and postmenopausal hirsutism with signs of virilisation
A woman's excessive hair growth and masculine features were due to a rare benign ovarian tumor and endometrial cancer, which improved after surgery.
research Can the Second to Fourth Digit Ratio (2D : 4D) Be a Marker to Determine Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity?
The index to ring finger ratio may indicate disease severity in female ankylosing spondylitis patients, but not in males.
research Health Issues Unique to the Aging Man
Aging men face unique health issues like erectile dysfunction, prostate problems, and baldness.
research Hair cortisol in polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS have higher hair cortisol levels, which are linked to worse metabolic and inflammatory conditions.
research The Mechanisms of Anabolic Steroids, Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators and Myostatin Inhibitors
Anabolic steroids boost muscle growth, SARMs increase muscle mass and bone density without side effects, and myostatin inhibitors block a protein that stops muscle growth, but each has potential risks.
research Acne
Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.
research Hydroxychloroquine modulates the progression of experimentally induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in rats via targeting EGFR/ERK/STAT3 and AR/FOXO1/TRAIL pathways: computational and in vivo studies
Hydroxychloroquine may help treat benign prostatic hyperplasia by reducing inflammation and promoting cell death.
research Androgen-associated and androgen-independent causes of alopecia and acne in women. Literature review
The document concludes that hair loss and acne in women can be due to both androgen-related and unrelated causes, requiring a collaborative treatment approach.
research Association of long-term 5α-reductase inhibitor use with survival in men with renal cell carcinoma: a nationwide population-based cohort study
Long-term use of 5α-reductase inhibitors may improve survival in men with kidney cancer.
