research Spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy: pathogenesis and clinical management
Kennedy's disease leads to muscle weakness without a cure, but exercise and managing symptoms may help patients live a normal lifespan.
research Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a common disorder causing symptoms like acne and infertility, and it's managed based on symptoms, not just test results. Treatment can improve fertility and reduce miscarriage risk.
research Cushing Syndrome from Percutaneous Absorption of 1% Hydrocortisone Ointment in Netherton Syndrome
Low-potency steroids can cause serious side effects in people with skin conditions like Netherton syndrome.
research Toxic shock syndrome: Recent developments in pathogenesis
Toxic shock syndrome is caused by a complex interaction of bacterial toxins and the immune system, and understanding this can help improve diagnosis and treatment.

Testing for CAG repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene is not currently recommended for managing hypogonadism.
research Management of CAH during pregnancy
With careful management, people with congenital adrenal hyperplasia can have successful pregnancies and become parents.
research Sp6 downregulation of follistatin gene expression in ameloblasts
Sp6 promotes tooth development by reducing follistatin levels.
research Pharmacogenetic analysis of human steroid 5α reductase type II: comparison of finasteride and dutasteride
Dutasteride is more efficient than finasteride, but individual results vary.

Taking riboflavin and eating less lysine can help some people with a specific genetic disorder avoid brain damage.
research Testosterone and the Brain: From Cognition to Autism
Testosterone affects brain functions and contributes to sex differences, influencing conditions like autism.
research Roles of steroid sulfatase in brain and other tissues
Steroid sulfatase is important for activating hormones that affect memory, brain function, and certain diseases, and could be a target for treating hormone-related disorders.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome associated with androgen insensitivity syndrome (testicular feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Autosomal Recessive Transmission of a Rare KRT74 Variant Causes Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia: Allelism with Dominant Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A rare gene variant causes hair and nail issues in a family.
research RNA sequencing reveals lncRNA-mediated non-mendelian inheritance of feather growth change in chickens
Long non-coding RNAs affect feather growth in chickens in ways that don't follow traditional genetic rules.
research The role of leptin in selected skin diseases
Leptin affects skin and hair health and may worsen some skin conditions, but more research is needed to understand its full impact.
research THERAPEUTIC HOTLINE: Genetic variations in the androgen receptor gene and finasteride response in women with androgenetic alopecia mediated by epigenetics
Women with greater androgen sensitivity respond better to finasteride for hair loss.
research New-Generation Therapies for the Treatment of Hair Loss in Men
New treatments for male hair loss show promise but need more research for safety and effectiveness.
research Secondary infertility due to use of low-dose finasteride
Low-dose finasteride may cause fertility issues, but stopping it can improve sperm quality and lead to pregnancy.

research Skin care during the menopause period: noninvasive procedures of beauty studies
The conclusion is that a combination of noninvasive treatments and lifestyle changes can improve skin health during menopause.
research Other Antiandrogens
Spironolactone works well for acne and hirsutism, isotretinoin is very effective for acne and may have antiandrogenic effects, and 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors should be considered antiandrogens.
research Polymorphic CAG repeat numbers in the androgen receptor gene of female pattern hair loss patients
Longer CAG repeats in gene linked to more severe hair loss in females.
research Investigation on Microecology of Hair Root Fungi in Androgenetic Alopecia Patients
Malassezia yeast linked to hair loss; ketoconazole helps treat it.
