research Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: A Disorder of Androgen Metabolism in the Male
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia may be caused by changes in how the body processes male hormones.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome associated with androgen insensitivity syndrome (testicular feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Recent discoveries and developments of androgen receptor based therapy for prostate cancer
New treatments for prostate cancer are less toxic and show promise, but more research is needed to enhance their effectiveness and reduce side effects.
research Targets to treat androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome
The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.
research Screening of synthetic and natural product databases: Identification of novel androgens and antiandrogens
Researchers found new potential treatments for conditions related to the androgen receptor, like male hormonal contraception, by testing thousands of compounds.
research Recent Advances in Drug Design and Drug Discovery for Androgen- Dependent Diseases
New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research Treatment of androgen excess in females: Yesterday, today and tomorrow
The document concludes that treating androgen excess needs patience, managing expectations is important, and many drugs used are not officially approved, suggesting cosmetic options for mild cases.
research The role of androgens in hormone replacement therapy
Androgen therapy can help with symptoms like low libido in women, but more research is needed to understand its long-term safety and effects on health.
research The anti-androgen combination, flutamide plus finasteride, paradoxically suppressed LH and androgen concentrations in pregnant spotted hyenas, but not in males
Flutamide and finasteride reduced sex hormones in pregnant hyenas, but increased them in males.
research Relative binding affinity of novel steroids to androgen receptors in hamster prostate
New steroids were effective in blocking male hormone receptors in hamster prostates.
research A rare case of an androgen-producing stromal luteoma of the ovary in a postmenopausal woman, diagnosed by means of selective venous blood sampling
Doctors used a special blood sampling technique to diagnose a woman's rare ovarian tumor that was producing male hormones.
research Androgen replacement therapy in women
Androgen replacement therapy can improve libido and mood in women with severe androgen deficiency, but more research is needed on its long-term safety.
research Crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of the human androgen receptor ligand-binding domain with a coactivator-like peptide and selective androgen receptor modulators
Scientists successfully created and analyzed the structure of a part of the human androgen receptor with specific modulators and a peptide to understand how it binds differently in various tissues.
research In Silico Screening of DrugBank Compounds as Potential Inhibitors for Human Steroid 5α-Reductase 2 for Androgen-Related Diseases
Stiripentol shows promise as a potential treatment for androgen-related diseases but needs more testing.
research Androgen excess: a hallmark of polycystic ovary syndrome
Excess androgens may cause PCOS, not just be a symptom.
research Computational Evaluation of Dibenzo Compounds as Potential Dual Inhibitors of Androgen Receptor and 5α-Reductase
Some dibenzo compounds might help treat cancer with fewer side effects.
research Androgen Treatment in Women
Testosterone therapy can help postmenopausal women with low sexual desire but needs more safety research and should be used with estrogen therapy.
research Androgen Treatment in Women
Testosterone therapy can help with androgen deficiency in women but should be used with caution and monitoring due to potential risks.
research Androgen treatment in women
Testosterone therapy can help improve sexual function, mood, and bone density in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed on long-term safety.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome is associated with anogenital distance, a marker of prenatal androgen exposure
Women with polycystic ovary syndrome tend to have a longer anogenital distance.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research Theoretical investigation of the conformational space of baicalin
The study found that baicalin has different stable shapes in gas and water, with two shapes better for interacting with positive charges in water.
research An Update on Plant Derived Anti-Androgens
Some plant-derived compounds may help with hormonal conditions, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research Anti-androgen Treatments
For women with moderate to severe unwanted hair growth or acne, birth control pills are the first choice, with other medications like cyproterone, spironolactone, flutamide, or finasteride as alternatives, and permanent hair removal should be done with electrolysis or laser.
research Urinary Androgens Provide Additional Evidence Related to Metabolism and Are Correlated With Serum Androgens in Girls
The research found that measuring androgens in urine can give extra information about body metabolism and is linked to androgen levels in the blood, especially in young girls.
research Human hair follicle organ culture: theory, application and perspectives
Human hair follicle organ culture is a useful model for hair research with potential for studying hair biology and testing treatments.
