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

Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.

Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.

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.

We need better ways to test and understand SARMs to make safer and more effective treatments.

Androgens and androgen receptors are important for metabolic health, affecting how the body uses glucose and fats through mitochondrial function.

Changes in testosterone and estrogen receptor genes can affect how men age, influencing body fat, hair patterns, and possibly leading to skin disorders.

Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.

Certain mutations in the H6PD gene cause Cortisone Reductase Deficiency by affecting hormone production.

Male genital development is driven by androgen signaling and understanding it could help address congenital anomalies.

A new mutation linked to partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome and prostate cancer was found in a patient unhappy with their female gender assignment.

Low vitamin D and ferritin levels are linked to female hair loss.

Finasteride helps treat skin issues like acne and baldness by blocking testosterone conversion.

Male hormones, or androgens, affect women's health in areas like mood and bone density, and hormone replacement therapy using antiandrogenic progestogens can improve mood disorders and alertness in menopausal women.

Longer CAG and GGN repeats increase alopecia risk, but no significant link to post-finasteride syndrome found.

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

Androgens may influence T cells, contributing to higher autoimmune liver disease risk in women.

Exposure to too much androgen before birth might cause polycystic ovary syndrome later in life.

Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.

Hair sensitivity to androgens is partly controlled by specific enzyme expressions in different hair areas.

Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.

Finasteride reduces dihydrotestosterone, increases testosterone, and may treat hirsutism in women.

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

Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.

Finasteride lowers DHT levels and raises testosterone in a dose-dependent way.

Anti-androgens are effective for female acne but less so for male-pattern hair loss, with side effects similar to birth control pills.

Men with early hair loss may have higher insulin resistance and should be checked for related health issues.

A boy with a rare skin condition and kidney disease improved with cyclosporine after steroids failed, suggesting a new treatment approach.

Women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) have more sexual function issues than those with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but physical activity can improve sexual functioning in all women.

Mice lacking steroid 5α-reductase 2 show less aggression and better impulse control.
