research Determination of finasteride in human plasma by liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry with flow rate gradient
Researchers developed a quick and sensitive way to measure finasteride in blood using a small sample size.
research YKL-40 a sensitive biomarker for early androgenetic alopecia and early hidden metabolic syndrome
High YKL-40 levels predict early hair loss and hidden metabolic issues.
research Evaluation of dihydrotestosterone levels and total testosterone to dihydrotestosterone ratio with clinical symptoms and metabolic parameters in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome
The TT/DHT ratio may help identify PCOS patients with severe metabolic issues.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research The use of cyproterone acetate/ethinyl estradiol in hyperandrogenic skin symptoms – a review
Cyproterone acetate with ethinyl estradiol is effective for treating skin symptoms related to high androgen levels, like in PCOS.
research Comparative Study to Evaluate Tolerability of Topical 5% Minoxidil Novel Formulation and Alcohol-Based Conventional Solutions in Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Indian Men: Randomized Double-Blind Study
New 5% minoxidil solution improves scalp hydration, reduces redness, and may be safer for sensitive users.
research Phytochemical Constitution, Anti-Inflammation, Anti-Androgen, and Hair Growth-Promoting Potential of Shallot (Allium ascalonicum L.) Extract
Shallot extract may help with hair growth and treating hair loss.
research Significant effects of mild endogenous hormonal changes in humans: considerations for low-dose testing.
Small changes in hormones can significantly impact health, showing the importance of sensitive testing for chemicals that disrupt hormones.
research Ethinylestradiol/Chlormadinone Acetate
The oral contraceptive ethinylestradiol/chlormadinone acetate is effective in reducing acne and improving other skin conditions related to high androgen levels.
research Significant Effects of Mild Endogenous Hormonal Changes in Humans: Considerations for Low-Dose Testing
Small hormonal imbalances can cause significant health problems, so more sensitive testing for hormone-disrupting chemicals is needed.
research PHARMACOLOGICAL BASIS FOR CLINICAL USE OF ANTIANDROGENS
Cyproterone acetate is used to treat conditions like prostate cancer, early puberty, excessive sexual drive, and female androgenization by affecting androgen functions and suppressing certain hormones.
research The Clinical Differences on 2:4 Finger Ratios of the Hirsute Women
Women with excessive hair growth tend to have shorter index and ring fingers compared to others.
research Secretome of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells as a Possible Innovative Therapeutic Tool in Facial Nerve Injury Treatment
The secretome from mesenchymal stromal cells shows promise for improving facial nerve injury treatment.
research A quantitative ultra-performance liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis of steroids from human scalp hair
The method can measure multiple steroids in human hair to study long-term steroid metabolism, especially in newborns and children.
research Clinical manifestations of androgenic alopecia in females of the reproductive age
Women of child-bearing age with androgenic alopecia lose hair density, especially in certain areas, and their hair becomes thinner. They also lose more than twice as much hair as healthy women.
research Comment on “An International Multicenter, Retrospective Cohort Study of 203 Patients with Pediatric Androgenetic Alopecia”
The study has limitations, and future research should use better methods to improve treatment for children with hair loss.
research Comparison clinical and metabolic effects of metformin and pioglitazone in polycystic ovary syndrome
Both metformin and pioglitazone improve PCOS symptoms, but pioglitazone is a good alternative for those who can't take metformin.
