No link found between hair loss severity and PSA levels in men.
research Male and Female Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes permanent hair loss; women use 2% minoxidil, men use 1 mg finasteride daily.
research Male and Female Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes permanent hair loss; minoxidil helps men, finasteride helps men, minoxidil somewhat helps women, estrogens/antiandrogens lack evidence for women.
research Stem cell factor/c-Kit signalling in normal and androgenetic alopecia hair follicles
SCF and c-Kit decrease in AGA hair follicles, possibly affecting hair pigmentation and growth.
research The metabolism of testosterone by dermal papilla cells cultured from scalp follicles of men with androgenetic alopecia
Testosterone metabolism in balding scalp cells may not be the main cause of hair loss.
research Role of genetics and sex steroid hormones in male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: An update of what we now know
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research Anti-androgenic activities of the triterpenoids fraction of Ganoderma lucidum
The triterpenoids from Ganoderma lucidum can block testosterone effects and may help treat enlarged prostate.
research Role of androgens in female-pattern androgenetic alopecia, either alone or associated with other symptoms of hyperandrogenism

research Controversies Regarding Transdermal Androgen Therapy in Postmenopausal Women
Testosterone therapy may slightly improve sexual function in postmenopausal women, but its long-term safety is unknown.
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 Finasteride and Erectile Dysfunction in Patients with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride may increase erectile dysfunction risk in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Novel Uses for the Anabolic Androgenic Steroids Nandrolone and Oxandrolone in the Management of Male Health
Nandrolone and oxandrolone could help treat male health issues like muscle loss and low testosterone.
research Anti-androgenic therapy with finasteride improves cardiac function, attenuates remodeling and reverts pathologic gene-expression after myocardial infarction in mice
Finasteride improves heart function and repairs damage after heart attack in mice.
research Female androgenetic alopecia: An update
Hair loss in women can be slowed with treatment, but more research needed for better solutions.
research Medical consequences of long-term anabolic-androgenic Steroids (AASs) abuses in athletes
Long-term steroid abuse in athletes causes serious health risks, outweighing any benefits.
research Anti-Androgen Therapy in Female Adult Acne
Anti-androgens are safe and effective for treating moderate to severe adult female acne.
research Prevalence of CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variant among women with polycystic ovary syndrome and adrenal androgen excess
Some women with PCOS have CYP21 mutations and IRS1 variants, but these genetic factors are not major contributors to PCOS.
research Effects of the anti-androgen finasteride on 5α-reduction of androgens in the presence of progesterone in human gingival fibroblasts: modulatory actions of the alkaline phosphatase inhibitor levamisole
Finasteride reduces testosterone conversion, progesterone lessens this, and levamisole enhances finasteride's effect.
research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Sulfotransferase activity in plucked hair follicles predicts response to topical minoxidil in the treatment of female androgenetic alopecia
Sulfotransferase in hair follicles helps predict how well minoxidil works for female hair loss.
research Intradermal injections with 0.5% minoxidil for the treatment of female androgenetic alopecia: A randomized, placebo‐controlled trial
Injections with 0.5% minoxidil effectively treat female hair loss, increasing hair density and thickness.
research Revisiting hyper- and hypo-androgenism by tandem mass spectrometry
The document concludes that using LC-MS/MS for measuring androgens is more accurate than older methods, but it needs careful validation and standardized references to be most effective.
research Detection of urine metabolites in polycystic ovary syndrome by UPLC triple-TOF-MS
Researchers found potential urine markers for polycystic ovary syndrome, including testosterone-glucuronide and 11α-hydroxyprogesterone, which may help diagnose the condition.
