Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.

Blocking the enzyme 11β-HSD1 might help treat obesity and metabolic issues.

Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting immune responses and skin cell activities.

Steroids stop hair growth temporarily but don't block the signals that start it.

A 13-year-old girl's masculine symptoms improved after surgery for a rare adrenal tumor that produced male hormones.

Overexpression of a specific receptor in mice skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier formation, eye issues, and hair loss.

Brothers of women with PCOS tend to have higher levels of a hormone called DHEAS, indicating a possible genetic link.

Careful patient selection is key for effective pulse corticosteroid treatment in children with alopecia areata.

Medium-dose prednisolone pulse therapy is effective and safe for multifocal alopecia areata but not for more severe forms.

Neuroactive steroids affect cocaine's rewarding effects through the ς₁ receptor.

Epidermal growth factor reduces hair growth, but cortisol does not.

Hair cortisol levels don't reliably indicate chronic stress in people with multiple sclerosis.

Stress worsens Tourette symptoms by increasing allopregnanolone levels.

High-dose corticosteroids can significantly regrow hair in severe alopecia areata.

New treatments for skin diseases in 1979 showed promising results with fewer side effects.

In STSD patients, the body compensates for low androgen levels by increasing another enzyme's activity.

The N363S gene variant does not cause higher adrenal androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.

Combining systemic steroids and dithranol can effectively regrow hair in severe alopecia areata.

Hair cortisol reliably indicates stress in rabbits.

A new method accurately measures DHEAS in blood, improving on current tests.

A new method accurately measures steroid hormones in a few hair strands and could help study chronic stress and hair loss.

Women with PCOS have higher oxidative stress and hormone imbalances, suggesting managing oxidative stress could help.

Hair cortisol could be a marker for chronic stress in pregnancy, but depression affects cortisol levels differently.

DHEA is the main sex steroid in cerebrospinal fluid, and testosterone in the fluid comes from the blood.

Women with androgenetic alopecia have normal levels of most blood steroids and binding proteins, but higher dehydroepiandrosterone. Some also have low "sex hormone-binding globulin" and "corticosteroide-binding globulin" capacity, and high "free androgen index" and "free cortisol index". Diane treatment can normalize these levels and improve hair conditions.
