research DHT and E2 synthesis-related proteins and receptors expression in male yak skin during different hair follicle stages
Male yak hair growth is influenced by DHT synthesis, which is promoted by 5α-red1 and AR during growth phases, while E2 may inhibit growth through ERα.
research 210 THE NEW APPROACH TO EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF ADENOMYOSIS
A new method can almost perfectly distinguish adenomyosis from similar conditions using blood tests.
research Novel Systematics of Nomenclature and Classification of Female Functional Androgenization (Including Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia)
A new system helps better diagnose and treat female androgenization conditions like PCOS.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Androgen Therapy in Women: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline
The Endocrine Society advised against routine testosterone therapy for women, citing a need for more research on long-term safety and a clear definition of androgen deficiency.
research Role of Oxidative Stress in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Oxidative stress is a key factor in the development of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, and weight management can improve symptoms.
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 Molecular mechanisms of androgenetic alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research Mild Cutaneous Manifestation in Two Young Women with Extraordinary Hyperandrogenemia
Two women with very high androgen levels had only slight skin issues, one due to a non-classical adrenal disorder and the other due to an adrenal tumor.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Over 50% of women over 50 experience hair loss, with minoxidil being the only proven effective treatment.
research The association of androgenetic alopecia and insulin resistance is independent of hyperandrogenemia: A case-control study
Hair loss is linked to insulin resistance in women, regardless of hormone levels.
research Revising the role of the androgen receptor in breast cancer
The document concludes that targeting the androgen receptor may be a promising breast cancer treatment, especially for certain types.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome: insight into pathogenesis and a common association with insulin resistance
Improving insulin sensitivity and weight loss can help manage polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
research Polycystic ovary syndrome: insight into pathogenesis and a common association with insulin resistance
PCOS is often linked to insulin resistance and obesity, and weight loss can improve symptoms.
research Metformin therapy for the reproductive and metabolic consequences of polycystic ovary syndrome
Metformin has limited effectiveness for improving PCOS symptoms and lacks clear benefits, needing more research to confirm its efficacy.
research Potential of Leucaena leucocephala and Leucaena esculenta Seeds in Human Nutrition: Composition, Techno-functional Properties, Toxicology and Pretreatment Technologies
Leucaena seeds are nutritious but need treatment to reduce toxicity.
research Measurement of Steroid Hormones in Hair: an Analysis of Hormone Dynamics in Hair Follicles
The method accurately measures steroid hormones in hair to study hormone dynamics related to hair loss.
research The role of hair follicles and Edar signalling in cutaneous wound healing
Activating the Eda/Edar pathway improves wound healing by enhancing hair follicle growth.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research The Distribution of Estrogen Receptor β Is Distinct to That of Estrogen Receptor α and the Androgen Receptor in Human Skin and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).
research Testosterone and the Brain: From Cognition to Autism
Testosterone affects brain functions and contributes to sex differences, influencing conditions like autism.
research Androgen Effects in Mammals
Testosterone is crucial for development, growth, and various body functions in mammals.
research Androgen excess: a hallmark of polycystic ovary syndrome
Excess androgens may cause PCOS, not just be a symptom.
research Effect of High Levels of Testosterone on Cardiovascular Risk in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

research Oxidative Activity of the Type 2 Isozyme of 17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β-HSD) Predominates in Human Sebaceous Glands
The enzyme 17β-HSD type 2 mainly performs oxidation in human sebaceous glands, which may help protect against acne.
research Physiology of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Gonadal Axis in the Male
The document explains how the male reproductive system works, its role in making testosterone, and how conditions like obesity can disrupt it, leading to low testosterone and fertility issues.
research Androgen Action in the Ovary
Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.
research Role of Metformin in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): Related Infertility
Metformin helps reduce PCOS-related infertility by improving insulin sensitivity and inducing ovulation.
