research Bioengineered polyester nanoparticles for the synergistic treatment of androgenic alopecia via the suppression of 5α-reductase and knockdown of androgen receptor
Bioengineered nanoparticles can effectively treat hair loss by targeting specific enzymes and receptors.
research ВЛИЯНИЕ АНДРОГЕННОГО СТАТУСА И АНТИАНДРОГЕННОЙ ТЕРАПИИ НА ТЕЧЕНИЕ COVID-19 У МУЖЧИН
Men with higher androgen levels may have severe COVID-19 symptoms, but those on antiandrogen therapy are less likely to contract the virus and have milder symptoms. Anti-androgen drugs could potentially treat COVID-19, but more research is needed.
research Androgen Biosynthesis Inhibitors and Androgen Receptor Antagonists
Anti-androgen drugs can treat conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness by blocking effects of testosterone and DHT.
research Response to the letter to the editor; Androgenetic alopecia; drug safety and therapeutic strategies
Use finasteride over dutasteride for hair loss; consider topical treatments and weigh risks.
research Treatment of hirsutism and acne in hyperandrogenism
Medicines that lower androgen levels and hair removal treatments help manage excessive hair and acne in women with PCOS.
research Androgenic Alopecia
The document concludes that treating female hair loss should target reducing excess androgen and blocking its effects on hair follicles, with the best treatments being hormonal therapy, adrenal suppression, and topical minoxidil.
research Diagnosis and treatments of hirsutism: where are we?
Effective treatments for excessive hair growth in women include creams, laser therapy, and medications, with the choice depending on individual needs and potential side effects.
research A method for simultaneous analysis of androgens, dutasteride and finasteride in human serum by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry

New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research Rational Design of a Topical Androgen Receptor Antagonist for the Suppression of Sebum Production with Properties Suitable for Follicular Delivery
A new compound was created in 2010 that can control oil production when applied to the skin, and its effects are completely reversible after two weeks.
research Pantolactams as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production
Pfizer found that pantolactam-based compounds can reduce sebum (skin oil) production when applied topically.
research 4-(Alkylthio)- and 4-(arylthio)-benzonitrile derivatives as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production
Chemicals called 4-(alkylthio)- and 4-(arylthio)-benzonitrile derivatives can potentially reduce oil production on skin, which could help treat conditions like acne and hair loss.
research Diphenyl ethers as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production
Diphenyl ethers can potentially reduce excess oil production when applied on the skin, helping treat conditions like acne.
research Preparation of 4-aryl-2-trifluoromethylbenzonitrile derivatives as androgen receptor antagonists for topical suppression of sebum production
Scientists made a chemical (compound 4e) that can be applied on skin to reduce oil production, which can help with acne, but it might cause skin sensitivity to light.
research COVID‐19, androgens, and androgenic alopecia
COVID-19 may worsen with androgens; anti-androgen drugs could help.
research Sex differences in COVID-19: the role of androgens in disease severity and progression
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.
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 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 Anti-androgens for the treatment of hirsutism
Different anti-androgen medications can help treat excessive hair growth, but the right choice depends on accurate diagnosis.
research Repurposing existing drugs for COVID-19: an endocrinology perspective
Existing drug dexamethasone may lower death risk in severe COVID-19 cases; more research needed for other drugs.
