research HORMONAL THERAPY IN DERMATOLOGY
Hormonal therapy is a treatment option for acne, the only medical treatment for hirsutism, and the most promising for androgenetic alopecia.
research Testicular Steroidogenesis
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research [Alopecia androgenetica and its local treatment with estrogen- and corticosteroid externa].
Topical estrogens improved hair growth in about half of the patients.
research SAHA syndrome: female androgenetic alopecia and hirsutism.
research The mechanism of inheritance of androgenetic alopecias in women
research Androgen Signaling in Sertoli Cells
Androgens regulate Sertoli cells and affect fertility through specific receptors and coregulators.
research Epigenetic Effects of Gender-Affirming Hormone Treatment: A Pilot Study of the ESR2 Promoter’s Methylation in AFAB People
Testosterone treatment may change estrogen receptor methylation in AFAB individuals.
research Pharmacology of antiandrogens
Antiandrogens affect androgen-dependent body functions and are used for various medical conditions, with some risks like fetus feminization, but new forms like 17α-propylmesterolone show promise for acne without systemic effects.
research Testosterone Metabolism in the Skin
Increased DHT formation in skin can cause hair loss, acne, and excessive hair growth, and antiandrogens might treat these conditions.
research A Case of Ovarian Hyperthecosis in a Postmenopausal Woman
A postmenopausal woman's excess male hormone symptoms improved after her ovaries were removed.
research Androgen‐induced neurite outgrowth is mediated by neuritin in motor neurones
Androgens help motor neurons grow by increasing neuritin.
research [Hirsutism].
Hirsutism, excessive male-pattern hair in women, can be caused by high androgens or skin sensitivity, diagnosed by testosterone levels, and treated with hair removal and hormone therapy.
research Growth hormone substitution in adult growth hormone‐deficient men augments androgen effects on the skin
Growth hormone therapy boosts androgen effects on skin in men.
research Urinary steroids in men with male-pattern alopecia
Men with male-pattern baldness have higher levels of certain testosterone metabolites and may have more active androgen metabolism.
research 5α‐Reductase inhibitors and prostatic disease
5α-Reductase inhibitors can help treat hair loss, acne, and prostate issues by reducing DHT levels.
research Patient reported androgen driven phenotypes do not associate with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy
Androgen-driven traits don't predict prostate cancer recurrence.
research El nuevo director de tecnología
Androgens increase pigmentation in certain hamster skin areas, but estrogens can reverse this effect.
research ODP423 Postmenopausal Virilization Secondary to A Rare Left Ovarian Androgen-Secreting Leydig Cell Tumor Localized Using Ovarian Vein Sampling
A woman's masculine symptoms were caused by a rare tumor in her left ovary, which was found using a special blood test.
research Dermatologic care of the transgender patient
Hormonal therapy in transgender patients can lead to skin changes like altered sebum production, hair growth, and acne, which may require dermatological care.
research An observational study of the association between androgenetic alopecia and size of the prostate
The conclusion is that more hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) is linked to larger prostate size, suggesting hair loss could be an early sign of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research The investigation of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome in male patients with early-onset androgenetic alopecia
Early balding men may have insulin resistance, but lifestyle changes can help.
research Premature androgenic alopecia and insulin resistance. Male equivalent of polycystic ovary syndrome?
Some men with early hair loss may have similar hormonal changes to women with Polycystic ovary syndrome, and could be at risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Approach to a Patient
research Supplemental Information: Androgenic Alopecia – Crosstalk between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
research Preparation of3H-labelled testosterone metabolites
The conclusion is that tritium-labeled testosterone metabolites can be made and are better converted into dihydrotestosterone in skin cells than in prostate tissue.
research Comprehensive transcriptome data to identify downstream genes of testosterone signalling in dermal papilla cells
The research identified genes and non-coding RNAs in cells that could be affected by testosterone, which may help understand hair loss and prostate cancer.
research Diagnosis of hyperandrogenism: clinical criteria
The document concludes that hirsutism is the main sign for diagnosing hyperandrogenism, which requires a detailed patient history and physical exam.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroidal compounds could be effective for treating conditions related to 5α-reductase enzyme activity.
research 9243 Postmenopausal Hyperandrogenism due to Rare Ovarian Tumor
Bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy resolved hyperandrogenism in a postmenopausal woman with rare ovarian tumors.
