DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.

Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.

Genes and hormones cause hair loss, with four genes contributing equally.

A specific metabolite, not a receptor protein, triggers the production of certain kidney enzymes, but this process is disrupted in mice with a mutation causing testicular feminization.

The exact cause of increased 5α-reductase activity leading to hirsutism in women is still unknown.

Men with common hair loss may have a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes, and should be checked for these conditions.

Testosterone is made by Leydig cells, is active when not bound to proteins, and works by binding to receptors in muscles and other tissues.

Diet changes can help reduce acne by limiting certain hormones.

Certain finger length ratios and body hair patterns may predict side effects from birth control pills in women.

Older men with low levels of a testosterone byproduct had a higher chance of developing an irregular heartbeat.

Finasteride can cause sexual dysfunction and depression, which may persist and require hormonal treatment.

Levamisole and finasteride can reduce DHT production, potentially preventing phenytoin-induced gum overgrowth.

Cyproterone acetate is effective for treating hirsutism and acne in women by blocking androgens in the skin and also works as a contraceptive.

Anti-androgens are effective for female acne but less so for male-pattern hair loss, with side effects similar to birth control pills.

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.

Some cannabinoid derivatives may be more effective than current drugs at targeting proteins relevant to prostate cancer treatment.

Minoxidil is the only drug proven to improve female hair loss, and dextroamphetamine sulfate may be a new treatment for certain types of hair loss.

Saw palmetto extract reduced hair loss and improved hair growth in people with hair thinning.

Finasteride and dutasteride effectively reduce DHT in hair, which may help evaluate their treatment success for hair loss.

Herbal stimulants in Cerita hair tonic can significantly reduce hair loss and the side effects of Minoxidil 1%.
