research The significance of CYP11A1 expression in skin physiology and pathology
CYP11A1 is crucial for skin health and disease by producing important steroids.
research Management of Sexual Dysfunction in Postmenopausal Breast Cancer Patients Taking Adjuvant Aromatase Inhibitor Therapy
Non-hormonal treatments should be used first for sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal breast cancer patients on aromatase inhibitors, with hormones as a second option.
research A preliminary study of steroid reproductive hormones in human hair
