Spironolactone might cause painful intercourse and decreased sexual arousal in women.
research Effects of depot medroxyprogesterone acetate, the copper IUD and the levonorgestrel implant on testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin and free testosterone levels: ancillary study of the ECHO randomized clinical trial
The levonorgestrel implant increases free testosterone and lowers SHBG more than DMPA-IM and the copper IUD.
research Effective treatment of skin and metabolic manifestations of hyperandrogenism: a comprehensive improvement of quality of life
Combined oral contraceptives improve skin, hormone levels, and quality of life in women with PCOS.
research Mixture effects of endocrine disrupting compounds in vitro
Weak endocrine disruptors in mixtures can have significant effects and should be considered in risk assessments.
research Topical Antiandrogens
Topical antiandrogens might treat skin issues like hair growth, balding, and acne, but finding effective treatments without side effects is challenging.
research Abstract P5-11-11: A phase I safety study of topical calcitriol (BPM31543) for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA)
Topical calcitriol appears safe and may reduce hair loss during chemotherapy.
research Cyclosporine-induced folliculodystrophy
Cyclosporine can cause a unique skin condition called "cyclosporine-induced folliculodystrophy."
research A quantitative ultra-performance liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis of steroids from human scalp hair
The method can measure multiple steroids in human hair to study long-term steroid metabolism, especially in newborns and children.
research Skin steroidogenesis in health and disease
The skin's ability to produce hormones is linked to various skin conditions, and better understanding this process could lead to new treatments.
research [Hirsutism].
Hirsutism is excessive male-pattern hair growth in women, often treated cosmetically or with hormone therapy if contraception is also desired.
research Adrenal 21-hydroxylase gene mutations in Slovenian hyperandrogenic women: evaluation of corticotrophin stimulation and HLA polymorphisms in screening for carrier status
The study concluded that testing hormone levels after stimulation is not reliable for identifying carriers of 21-hydroxylase deficiency; genetic testing is necessary.
research Allopregnanolone mediates the exacerbation of Tourette-like responses by acute stress in mouse models
Stress worsens Tourette symptoms by increasing allopregnanolone levels.
research Transgender adolescents and acne: A cases series
Testosterone treatment in transgender teens can worsen acne, requiring careful treatment due to mental health and medication side effects.
research Can serum vaspin levels predict clomiphene resistance in infertile women with PCOS?
Lower vaspin levels in the blood may indicate a better response to fertility treatment in women with PCOS.
research The diagnosis of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, based on serum basal or post-ACTH stimulation 17-hydroxyprogesterone, can lead to false-positive diagnosis
Using 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels to diagnose nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia can result in many incorrect diagnoses.
research Hypoxia-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Exosomes Downregulate CXCL12 and Upregulate IL-10 Expression in a Murine Model of Androgenic Alopecia
EH-MSCs may help treat hair loss by reducing inflammation.
research Follicular delivery of spironolactone via nanostructured lipid carriers for management of alopecia
Nanostructured lipid carriers can effectively deliver spironolactone to hair follicles for treating hair loss.
research Effects of Flutamide, a pure antiandrogen, on endocrine parameters, in the adult female rat
Flutamide, an antiandrogen, has minimal impact on female rat endocrine systems and does not significantly change their reproductive cycles.
research Adrenocorticotropic Hormone (ACTH) But Not Alpha-Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (a-MSH) as a Mediator of Adrenalectomy Induced Hair Growth in Mink
ACTH promotes hair growth in mink, but α-MSH does not.
research Treatment of androgenetic alopecia with autologous CD200 positive cell suspension
Injecting a cell suspension from hair follicles increased hair density in a balding patient.
research An endocrinopathy characterized by dysfunction of the pituitary-adrenal axis and alopecia universalis: supporting the entity of a triple H syndrome
