research CAG Repeat Testing of Androgen Receptor Polymorphism: Is This Necessary for the Best Clinical Management of Hypogonadism?
Testing for CAG repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene is not currently recommended for managing hypogonadism.
research The rationale for physiological testosterone replacement in women
Testosterone replacement may help post-menopausal women with androgen insufficiency, but more research is needed on its benefits and risks.
research Mitotic activity in the epidermis of the rabbit stimulated with local applications of testosterone propionate
Testosterone applied to rabbit skin increases skin cell growth and changes skin structure.
research Gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist (nafarelin) test to differentiate gonadotropin deficiency from constitutionally delayed puberty in teen-age boys--a clinical research center study.
The nafarelin test can reliably distinguish between gonadotropin deficiency and delayed puberty in teenage boys.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Abietic Acid from Resina Pini of Pinus Species as a Testosterone 5.ALPHA.-Reductase Inhibitor
Abietic acid from pine resin can effectively inhibit testosterone 5α-reductase.
research Protective effect of DA-9401 in finasteride-induced apoptosis in rat testis: inositol requiring kinase 1 and c-Jun N-terminal kinase pathway
DA-9401 helps protect rat testis from finasteride damage.
research Protective effects of finasteride against testosterone-induced calcium oxalate crystallization and crystal-cell adhesion
Finasteride helps prevent kidney stones, but side effects need more research.
research The influence of obesity on Androstenedione to Testosterone ratio in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and hyperandrogenemia
Obesity changes androgen levels in women with PCOS, leading to higher testosterone relative to androstenedione.
research Hair regenerative effect of silk fibroin hydrogel with incorporation of FGF-2-liposome and its potential mechanism in mice with testosterone-induced alopecia areata
The silk fibroin hydrogel with FGF-2-liposome can potentially treat hair loss in mice.
research Testosterone-like immunoreactivity in hair measured in minute sample amounts - a competitive radioimmunoassay with an adequate limit of detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research Androgenic effect of testosterone and some of its metabolites in relation to their biotransformation in the skin.
Testosterone and some of its forms can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in skin.
research A controlled study of the effects of RU58841, a non-steroidal antiandrogen, on human hair production by balding scalp grafts maintained on testosterone-conditioned nude mice
RU58841 significantly increases hair growth rate and initiates more hair cycles, but doesn't affect hair thickness, suggesting it could be a new treatment for baldness.
research In-vivo uptake and metabolism of testosterone by the skin and other tissues of the rat
Rat skin takes up and processes testosterone differently than other organs, with testosterone being more important for the skin than its metabolite 5α-DHT.
research Testosterone- and Cortisol-Secreting Adrenocortical Oncocytoma: An Unusual Cause of Hirsutism
A woman's excessive hair growth was caused by a rare benign tumor in her adrenal gland, which was successfully removed.
research The O'Connor Tweezer Dexterity Test as a Screening Tool for Hiring Surgical Hair Restoration Assistants
The O'Connor Tweezer Dexterity Test effectively screens for skilled surgical hair restoration assistants.
research Administration of Caesalpinia bonduc Seed Extracts Ameliorates Testosterone-Induced Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) in Male Wistar Rats
Caesalpinia bonduc seed extracts may help treat enlarged prostate in rats.
research The five-year effects of testosterone replacement therapy on lipid profile and glucose tolerance among hypogonadal men in Japan: a case control study
Testosterone replacement therapy improved blood sugar and fat levels without raising prostate cancer risk in Japanese men with low testosterone.
research At the dawn of hair research – testing the limits of hair follicle regeneration
Hair follicle regeneration is possible but challenging, especially in humans, due to the need for specific cells and a better understanding of how they signal growth.

Triptorelin helps evaluate hormone production in Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors.
research The use of testosterone after menopause
Testosterone therapy can improve sexual satisfaction and mood in surgically menopausal women when used with estrogen, but its long-term safety and effects on naturally menopausal and premenopausal women are unclear.
