research New treatments for rheumatoid arthritis
New drugs for rheumatoid arthritis show improvement but have side effects and are not a cure.
research Phytochemicals as emerging therapeutic agents for alopecia treatment
Plant-based chemicals may help hair growth and prevent hair loss but need more research to compete with current treatments.
research Roles for Msx and Dlx homeoproteins in vertebrate development
Msx and Dlx genes are crucial for development, controlling cell behaviors like growth and differentiation through their roles as gene regulators.
research Pharmacology of anabolic steroids
Anabolic steroids can build muscle and strength but have risks and need more research on their clinical benefits and side effects.
research Hormonal Treatment for Skin Androgen-Related Disorders
Hormonal treatments can help with hair loss, acne, and excess hair growth, but it takes 3-6 months to see results and patients should know the possible side effects.
research A prospective randomized trial comparing finasteride to spironolactone in the treatment of hirsute women.
Finasteride and spironolactone both reduce hirsutism, but finasteride lowers androgen levels more.
research Understanding and Addressing Hair Disorders in Transgender Individuals
Hormone therapy affects hair growth in transgender individuals, with testosterone potentially causing hair loss in trans men and estrogen reducing facial/body hair in trans women; treatment options vary.
research Managing Cutaneous Manifestations of Hyperandrogenic Disorders
Birth control pills help treat skin and hair growth problems linked to high male hormone levels.
research In Vitroandin VivoStructure-Activity Relationships of Novel Androgen Receptor Ligands with Multiple Substituents in the B-Ring

research Targets to treat androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome
The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.
research Cyclooxygenases in the skin: pharmacological and toxicological implications
Blocking COX, especially COX-2, in the skin can reduce inflammation and pain and may help prevent skin cancer.
research Secondary amenorrhea
Secondary amenorrhea has many causes and requires thorough evaluation to treat and restore menstrual cycles.
research Overexpression of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) in LNCaP cells diverts androgen metabolism towards testosterone resulting in resistance to the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride
Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.
research Triclocarban, Triclosan, Bromochlorophene, Chlorophene, and Climbazole Effects on Nuclear Receptors: An in Silico and in Vitro Study
Five preservatives may disrupt hormone function and need more health and environmental risk assessment.
research Participation of GABAA, GABAB receptors and neurosteroids in toluene-induced hypothermia: Evidence of concentration-dependent differences in the mechanism of action
Toluene lowers body temperature through different mechanisms depending on the concentration.
research Identification of Anabolic Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators with Reduced Activities in Reproductive Tissues and Sebaceous Glands
Two new compounds were found to build bone and muscle without affecting reproductive organs and skin oil glands.

Certain bacteria from the Citrullus colocynthis plant may be a new source of antibiotics to fight drug-resistant diseases.
research The skin mycobiome and intermicrobial interactions in the cutaneous niche
Certain fungi protect skin health, but changes can allow harmful fungi to cause serious infections, needing more research for treatment and control.
research Spironolactone
Spironolactone can cause side effects like high potassium levels and breast enlargement, and patients need careful monitoring.
