research Effect of Testosterone Supplementation With and Without a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor on Fat-Free Mass in Men With Suppressed Testosterone Production
Testosterone's muscle-building effects do not require its conversion to DHT.
research Adverse effects of common medications on male fertility
Some common medications can harm male fertility, but many effects can be reversed.
research The Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibition With Dutasteride and Finasteride on Bone Mineral Density, Serum Lipoproteins, Hemoglobin, Prostate Specific Antigen and Sexual Function in Healthy Young Men
Dutasteride and finasteride do not significantly affect bone density, blood fats, or blood production, but slightly lower PSA levels and minimally impact sexual function in healthy young men.
research The Transcriptional Co-Activator cAMP Response Element-Binding Protein-Binding Protein Is Expressed in Prostate Cancer and Enhances Androgen- and Anti-Androgen-Induced Androgen Receptor Function
A protein called CBP is found in prostate cancer and can increase the effectiveness of certain prostate cancer treatments.
research Effects of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors on erectile function, sexual desire and ejaculation
5-alpha reductase inhibitors can cause sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction and reduced sexual desire, sometimes lasting after stopping the drug.
research Overexpression of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) in LNCaP cells diverts androgen metabolism towards testosterone resulting in resistance to the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride
Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.
research Hair growth effects of oral administration of finasteride, a steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, alone and in combination with topical minoxidil in the balding stumptail macaque.
Finasteride and minoxidil together promote hair growth better than either alone.
research Changes of androgens levels in menopausal women
Menopausal women have higher androgen levels, which can cause symptoms like facial hair growth and low sexual desire.
research Cross-species sensitivity to a novel androgen receptor agonist of potential environmental concern, spironolactone
Spironolactone harms fish reproduction and is more potent in fish than invertebrates, needing environmental monitoring.
research Androgens modulate keratinocyte differentiation indirectly through enhancing growth factor production from dermal fibroblasts
Male hormones indirectly affect skin cell development by increasing growth factor levels from skin fibroblasts.
research Androgen Receptor in Human Health: A Potential Therapeutic Target
The Androgen Receptor could be a target for treating diseases like cancer, but more research is needed to confirm the effectiveness of potential treatments.
research The effects of topical diazoxide on hair follicular growth and physiology of the stumptailed macaque
Diazoxide applied to the skin can increase hair growth without harmful side effects.
research The evaluation and treatment of androgen excess
High androgen levels can cause excessive hair growth and may indicate serious health issues, including heart disease and fertility problems.
research Potential Remedial Effects of Solanum nigrum Berries on Alopecia: An In Vivo Study
Solanum nigrum extract may help regrow hair.
research The Additive Effects of Minoxidil and Retinol on Human Hair Growth in Vitro

research 103 The Effect of Evening Alcohol Consumption and Bedtime Administration of Flibanserin on the Safety of Flibanserin
Drinking alcohol before taking flibanserin does not increase the risk of severe low blood pressure or fainting.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Dermatology of androgen-related disorders
Androgens cause skin issues like acne and hair growth in women, often due to PCOS, and can be treated with medication and lifestyle changes.
research Epidemiology, diagnosis and management of hirsutism: a consensus statement by the Androgen Excess and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Society
Experts recommend using evidence-based methods to diagnose and treat hirsutism, focusing on symptoms and underlying causes.
research Androgen Therapy in Women: A Reappraisal: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline
The guidelines advise against using testosterone and DHEA in women for most conditions due to safety and effectiveness concerns, but suggest considering testosterone for postmenopausal women with low sexual desire.
research Androgen modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
research Effect of finasteride, a 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, on serum gonadotropins in normal men.
Finasteride doesn't affect hormone levels in normal men.
research Androgen receptor: A promising therapeutic target in breast cancer
The androgen receptor is a promising target for breast cancer treatment, especially in triple-negative cases, but more research is needed for personalized therapies.
