research Androgens and Antiandrogens
Male hormones, or androgens, affect women's health in areas like mood and bone density, and hormone replacement therapy using antiandrogenic progestogens can improve mood disorders and alertness in menopausal women.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitors in men aged 50 years or older with androgenetic alopecia: A retrospective study
5ARI treatment improves hair growth in older men with minimal side effects.
research The Mossman–Pacey Paradox
Men using steroids or finasteride to look more attractive may harm their fertility and sexual function, creating a paradox where they seem fit but may be less able to reproduce.
research A New Era of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors for Androgenetic Alopecia
New drug dutasteride effectively treats hair loss, but use cautiously due to potential sexual side effects.
research SUN-118 A Case of Anastrozole Induced Hyperandrogenism
Anastrozole can cause increased testosterone, leading to symptoms like hair growth and thinning.
research COVID-19 Severity and Androgen Receptor Polymorphism
Men with more CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene and lower testosterone levels may experience more severe COVID-19.
research ANDROGEN METABOLISM AS IT AFFECTS HAIR GROWTH IN ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Androgens, like DHT, affect hair growth and treatments like finasteride may help.
research Altered brain and pituitary androgen metabolism by prenatal, perinatal or pre- and postnatal finasteride, flutamide or dihydrotestosterone treatment in juvenile male rats
Treatment during development affects hormone balance and sexual behavior in male rats.
research Peppermint oil modulating TGF-β1/VEGF pathways to reduce androgenic alopecia in male albino mice
research Additive in vivo growth-inhibitory effects of flutamide and finasteride on androgen-sensitive Shionogi 115 carcinoma
Combining flutamide and finasteride can reduce prostate weight and tumor growth, potentially benefiting treatments needing optimal DHT inhibition.
research 013 Prostaglandin D2 enhances testosterone metabolism by ROS-mediated altered redox potential in keratinocytes
Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone production in skin cells through a process involving reactive oxygen species, which could be a new target for treating hair loss and other skin conditions driven by testosterone.
research Novel 5α-reductase inhibitors unlinked to depression-like phenotypes in rat model of BPH
research Resistance Training Ameliorates Finasteride-Induced Disturbance in Protein Homeostasis in Skeletal Muscle of Rats
Resistance exercise can reduce muscle protein issues caused by finasteride.
research PD05-10 COMPARATIVE EFFECTS OF FINASTERIDE AND DUTASTERIDE ON SEMEN PARAMETERS IN YOUNG MEN WITH ANDROGENIC ALOPECIA: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED STUDY
Finasteride and dutasteride reduce semen quality, with dutasteride having a stronger negative effect.
research Triple Hormonal Blockade (ADT3): A Patient’s Perspective
Triple Hormonal Blockade (ADT3) can effectively manage prostate cancer but requires careful monitoring for heart risks.
research Is dehydroepiandrosterone a hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research Steroid 5α-reductase inhibition by polymethoxyflavones
Certain natural compounds can block an enzyme linked to prostate enlargement and hair loss, showing potential for new treatments.
research Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of 4-(4-(Alkyl-and Phenylaminocarbonyl)benzoyl)benzoic Acid Derivatives as Non-steroidal Inhibitors of Steroid 5α-Reductase Isozymes 1 and 2
The compound 4c effectively inhibits the enzyme linked to hair loss.
research Antiandrogen therapy for androgenetic alopecia
Antiandrogen therapy helps treat genetic hair loss.
research Baicalin Against Androgenetic Alopecia: A Network Pharmacology Study
Baicalin may effectively treat hair loss by inhibiting 5α-reductase.
research Side Effects of 5‐Alpha Reductase Inhibitors: A Comprehensive Review
5-alpha reductase inhibitors slightly increase the risk of sexual and mood side effects, and breast growth in men.
research The AR/miR-221/IGF-1 pathway mediates the pathogenesis of androgenetic alopecia
A specific pathway involving AR, miR-221, and IGF-1 plays a key role in causing common hair loss.
research Effect of finasteride on adrenal steroidogenesis in men.
Finasteride, when taken daily, lowers dihydrotestosterone levels but doesn't noticeably affect adrenal steroid production, except by blocking the 5 alpha-reductase enzyme.
research Tissue-Selective Regulation of Androgen-Responsive Genes
The same hormone can affect gene expression differently in various tissues, which could lead to new treatments for conditions like hair loss.
research Steroid 5α-reductase 2 deficiency leads to reduced dominance-related and impulse-control behaviors
Mice lacking steroid 5α-reductase 2 show less aggression and better impulse control.
research Female Antiandrogens
Antiandrogens can treat female hormonal conditions, but environmental ones may harm reproductive health.
research The connection of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors to the development of depression
5-alpha reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, may cause depression, but more research is needed to understand why.
