Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.

High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.

The document concludes that more research is needed to understand excessive hair growth in women with normal hormone levels and regular ovulation.

TR3 is mainly found in hair follicle stem cells and may be involved in hair loss.

Certain hormone levels can help diagnose P450 oxidoreductase deficiency.

New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
