Testing for CAG repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene is not currently recommended for managing hypogonadism.
research Androgen treatment of postmenopausal women
Testosterone therapy can improve sexual desire and function in postmenopausal women but should be used cautiously and not based solely on testosterone levels.
research Changes of androgens levels in menopausal women
Menopausal women have higher androgen levels, which can cause symptoms like facial hair growth and low sexual desire.
research Non-canonical dimerization of the androgen receptor and other nuclear receptors: implications for human disease
Mutations in certain receptors can cause diseases and offer new treatment options.
research Effects of Short-Term Finasteride on Apoptotic Factors and Androgen Receptors in Prostate Cancer Cells
Short-term finasteride treatment may lower some cell death factors in prostate cancer cells.
research Enhancement of percutaneous absorption of Finasteride by cosolvents, cosurfactant and surfactants
Transcutol P best increases Finasteride absorption for hair loss treatment.
research Advances in male hormone substitution therapy
New treatments for low male hormones improved sexual function and mood but had unclear risks, especially for older men.
research Effects of Finasteride on Apoptosis and Regulation of the Human Hair Cycle
Finasteride helps hair growth by decreasing cell death in hair follicles.
research Effects of Finasteride on Apoptosis and Regulation of the Human Hair Cycle

research Establishment and characterization of five immortalized human scalp dermal papilla cell lines
Researchers created five new human scalp cell lines that could be useful for hair growth and loss research.
research COVID-19 and hypopituitarism
COVID-19 and hypopituitarism (reduced pituitary gland function) are linked, with the latter's related health issues potentially worsening COVID-19 outcomes, and COVID-19 possibly increasing risk for pituitary complications.
research Targets to treat androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome
The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.
research Development and ex-vivo skin permeation studies of finasteride–poly(lactic acid-co-glycolic acid) and minoxidil–chitosan nanoparticulate systems
