240-270 / 1000+ results research Clinical Usefulness of Plasma Androstanediol Glucuronide Measurements in Women with Idiopathic Hirsutism*
Measuring androstanediol glucuronide in blood is useful for assessing and tracking treatment in women with excessive hair growth.
research 17β-Estradiol Enhances Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production and Dihydrotestosterone Antagonizes the Enhancement via the Regulation of Adenylate Cyclase in Differentiated THP-1 Cells
Estrogen increases blood vessel growth factor production, while testosterone blocks this increase.
research Pharmaceutical and Pharmacological Evaluation of the Effect of Nano-Formulated Spironolactone and Progesterone on Inflammation and Hormonal Levels for Managing Hirsutism Experimentally Induced in Rats
research Determination of estradiol and progesterone concentrations in human scalp hair
Hair levels of estradiol and progesterone are higher in premenopausal than postmenopausal women, but the difference isn't statistically significant, indicating the need for a better measurement method.
research The influence of selected steroid hormones on the physicochemical behaviour of DPPC liposomes
Steroid hormones change the size, charge, and stability of DPPC liposomes.
research Estro-progestogen combinations: Effect on sex Steroid Binding Protein (SBP) synthesis
Certain hormone treatments can increase SBP levels and help with mild body hair growth.
research Efectos de la alteración de los niveles de allopregnanolona durante periodos críticos del neurodesarrollo en la vulnerabilidad al consumo de alcohol
Early NAS level changes affect alcohol consumption vulnerability.
research Decreased allopregnanolone induced by hormonal contraceptives is associated with a reduction in social behavior and sexual motivation in female rats
Hormonal contraceptives may reduce social behavior and sexual motivation by lowering allopregnanolone levels.
research Noncontraceptive benefits of the estradiol valerate/dienogest combined oral contraceptive: a review of the literature
The estradiol valerate/dienogest oral contraceptive helps with heavy periods, may improve acne and symptoms in PCOS, and doesn't affect sexual function.
research The diagnosis of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, based on serum basal or post-ACTH stimulation 17-hydroxyprogesterone, can lead to false-positive diagnosis
Using 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels to diagnose nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia can result in many incorrect diagnoses.
research 6 Peripheral androgens and the role of androstanediol glucuronide
Androstanediol glucuronide is a reliable marker for hirsutism in women.
research An isotope dilution-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based candidate reference measurement procedure for the quantification of 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in human serum and plasma
The procedure accurately measures 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in blood, useful for standard tests.
research The effects of synthetic 19-norprogestins on osteoblastic cell function are mediated by their non-phenolic reduced metabolites
Synthetic 19-norprogestins promote bone cell growth and function through their non-phenolic metabolites.
research Steroid 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroidal compounds could be effective for treating conditions related to 5α-reductase enzyme activity.
research Crystal Structure of 17-.BETA.-Benzoyloxy-16-.BETA.-methylpregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione.
A new antiandrogen compound was made and its detailed three-dimensional shape was described.
research Treatment of hirsutism with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist and estrogen replacement therapy
The combination therapy reduced hirsutism in women with PCOD and was well-tolerated.
research Efficacy and tolerance of 2,3-diphenylcyclopropenone in propylene glycol versus 2,3-diphenylcyclopropenone in isopropanol – a novel formula designed for the treatment of alopecia areata
Both treatments helped hair regrowth in alopecia areata, with isopropanol being better tolerated.
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 The effect of an oral contraceptive containing ethinylestradiol and desogestrel on hair growth and hormonal parameters of hirsute women
The contraceptive reduced hair growth and altered hormone levels in hirsute women.
research Differential Suppression of Testosterone and Estradiol in Hirsute Women With the Superactive Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist Leuprolide*
Leuprolide effectively reduces hair growth in hirsute women at higher doses.
research Dienogest vs. combined oral contraceptive: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of efficacy and side effects to inform evidence‐based guidelines
Dienogest and combined oral contraceptives are equally effective for endometriosis, but COC may reduce painful intercourse more.
research Markers of peripheral androgen action in vivo and in vitro
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.
research Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist therapy for hirsutism is as effective as high dose cyproterone acetate but results in a longer remission
Hormone therapy for excessive hair growth is as good with GnRHa as with high-dose CPA, but GnRHa has longer-lasting results.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Prostaglandin D2 inhibits hair growth and is elevated in bald scalp of men with androgenetic alopecia.
A substance called prostaglandin D2 is found more in bald scalps and it stops hair from growing. Blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Prostaglandin D2 inhibits hair growth and is elevated in bald scalp of men with androgenetic alopecia.
Prostaglandin D2, found in higher levels in bald scalps, stops hair growth, suggesting that blocking its receptor could potentially treat hair loss.
research Prostaglandin D 2 Inhibits Hair Growth and Is Elevated in Bald Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
PGD2 stops hair growth and is higher in bald men with AGA.
research Equine 5α-reductase activity and expression in epididymis
The equine epididymis mainly uses type 1 5α-reductase, and both finasteride and dutasteride can inhibit its activity.
research The biphasic regulatory effect of diphencyprone on mouse hair growth and its relation to protein kinase C isoforms
Diphencyprone initially increases mouse hair growth, then slows it, possibly due to changes in specific protein levels.
