research Preponderance of serum and intra-hepatic 5α-dihydrotestosterone in males with hepatocellular carcinoma despite low circulating androgen levels
Men with liver cancer have higher levels of a specific testosterone byproduct in their liver and blood, despite overall lower male hormone levels.
research Referee report. For: Hair greying in castrated mice [version 1; peer review: 1 approved with reservations]
Androgen loss may speed up hair greying.
research Hair greying in castrated mice

New oral treatment, finasteride, effectively and safely treats common hair loss.
research Testosterone Prevents Cutaneous Ischemia and Necrosis in Males Through Complementary Estrogenic and Androgenic Actions
Testosterone helps prevent skin damage in males by acting through both estrogen and androgen pathways.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.

Sex neurosteroids cause different effects on hippocampal synaptic plasticity in males and females.
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 SEXUAL DIMORPHISM IN MAMMALS
Males and females differ in lifespan, growth, organ size, metabolism, and brain structure, with females generally living longer and maturing earlier.
research Testosterone: The Male Sex Hormone
More research is needed to understand how testosterone is maintained in adult males.
