Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone have similar effects on body composition and metabolic health in men.
research 2-Substituted 4-(Thio)chromenone 6-O-Sulfamates: Potent Inhibitors of Human Steroid Sulfatase
New compounds were made that block an enzyme linked to breast cancer better than existing treatments.
research Alopecia With Endocrine Therapies in Patients With Cancer
Endocrine therapies for cancer significantly increase the risk of hair loss.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.

research Sex hormones modulate pathogenic processes in experimental traumatic brain injury
Sex hormones affect brain injury differently in males and females.
research The efficacy and use of finasteride in women: a systematic review
Finasteride improves hair growth and reduces hirsutism in women, but side effects and optimal dosages need further research.
research Pharmacological activation of estrogen receptors-α and -β differentially modulates keratinocyte differentiation with functional impact on wound healing
Activating ER-β, not ER-α, improves skin cell growth and wound healing.
research 5α-Reductase isozymes and aromatase mRNA levels in plucked hair from young women with female pattern hair loss
Higher enzyme levels found in women with hair loss, suggesting hormone imbalance.
research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Over 50% of women over 50 experience hair loss, with minoxidil being the only proven effective treatment.
research Development of growth factor-incorporating liposomes for integration into scaffolds as a method to improve tissue regeneration
Liposomal carriers can improve tissue regeneration by stabilizing and retaining growth factors.
research Bisphenol-A antagonizes the rapidly modulating effect of DHT on spinogenesis and long-term potentiation of hippocampal neurons
Bisphenol-A (BPA) increases connections between brain cells and boosts their activity, but it blocks the effects of a male hormone on brain cell plasticity.
research Etiology and diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss is caused by genetics and hormones, diagnosed through examination and biopsy, and treated with medications or surgery.
research Pharmacokinetics of 2 Novel Formulations of Modified-Release Oral Testosterone Alone and With Finasteride in Normal Men With Experimental Hypogonadism
New oral testosterone formulations show potential for safer, effective hormone replacement in men with low testosterone.
research Cosmetic Surgery Considerations in the Female Patient
