Hirsutism in females is caused by high male hormones or sensitive hair follicles.

Testosterone helps prevent skin damage in males by acting through both estrogen and androgen pathways.

DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.

Testosterone affects stress hormone levels differently in adolescent and adult male rats.

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

Sex hormones affect brain cells differently in males and females.

Germacrene analogs, especially 8-Hydroxy germacrene B, are more effective than germacrone at blocking a hormone-related enzyme and could help treat hair loss.

The conclusion is that tritium-labeled testosterone metabolites can be made and are better converted into dihydrotestosterone in skin cells than in prostate tissue.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

Fenugreek extract may help treat benign prostatic hyperplasia.

A 13-year-old with 46 XY DSD had ambiguous genitalia due to incomplete masculinization.

Y27632 increases cell growth through EGFR signaling, not ROCK1/2.

Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.

Anti-androgen drugs can treat conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness by blocking effects of testosterone and DHT.

Piper cubeba and Aquilaria sinensis may help prevent or treat prostate issues by balancing hormones.

Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.

Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.

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

Topical finasteride may help treat facial hirsutism in women.

Androgens affect skin conditions like acne and hirsutism, treatable with hormone therapy and other methods.

Inhibitors of the enzyme 5 alpha-reductase could potentially treat disorders like prostate cancer and baldness.

Isotretinoin and tazarotene help treat acne, while minoxidil and finasteride promote hair growth.

Alopecia and acne in women are complex conditions needing coordinated care and personalized treatment.

The procedure accurately measures 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in blood, useful for standard tests.

Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.

Dihydrotestosterone increases certain inflammatory signals in skin cells, potentially contributing to acne.

Male hormones worsen kidney transplant damage, but blocking them helps.

New chemicals were made that can block an enzyme linked to hair loss, prostate growth, and acne.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) doesn't affect rat skin cell growth, but it does change cell cycle, protein levels, and other cell functions, potentially shortening hair growth cycle.

Dihydrotestosterone causes p27 protein breakdown in ovarian and breast cancer cells by binding with SKP2.
