New signs like changes in blood markers, physical symptoms, and behavioral shifts may help detect hidden steroid use in athletes.
research Novel Missense Mutation in the P-Box of Androgen Receptor in a Patient with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
A new mutation linked to partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome and prostate cancer was found in a patient unhappy with their female gender assignment.
research 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors are associated with reduced frequency of COVID-19 symptoms in males with androgenetic alopecia (vol 35, pg e243, 2021)
Men with hair loss who take a certain type of medication may experience fewer COVID-19 symptoms.
