research Comparison of Alopecia severity and blood level of testosterone in men suffering schizophrenia with control group
Men with more severe hair loss had a lower risk of schizophrenia, but hair loss and testosterone levels were not linked.
research The interaction between finasteride and corticosterone levels: implications for depression-, and anxiety-like behavior and hippocampal synaptic plasticity in male rats
Chronic finasteride use in male rats doesn't strongly cause depression or anxiety due to adaptive stress hormone changes.
research Coconut oil works as a gonadal feedback testosterone booster and increases pituitary aromatase (cyp19a1b) expression levels in fugu (Takifugu rubripes)
Coconut oil boosts testosterone but doesn't fully trigger reproductive maturity in pufferfish.
research Testosterone, sex hormone-binding globulin and dehydroepiandrosterone levels and cervical length of Egyptian women with a history of recurrent miscarriages, polycystic ovary syndrome and without the conditions at three stages of pregnancy
High DHEA and short cervical length in women with PCOS and recurrent miscarriages may harm pregnancy outcomes.
research Levonorgestrel effects on serum androgens, sex hormone–binding globulin levels, hair shaft diameter, and sexual function
research Effects of depot medroxyprogesterone acetate, the copper IUD and the levonorgestrel implant on testosterone, sex hormone binding globulin and free testosterone levels: ancillary study of the ECHO randomized clinical trial
The levonorgestrel implant increases free testosterone and lowers SHBG more than DMPA-IM and the copper IUD.
research Collagen, Curcumin, and Glutathione to Enhance Dermal Health in Aging Women with Declining Estrogen Levels -A Narrative Review.
Collagen, curcumin, and glutathione can improve skin health in aging women with low estrogen.
research Treatment of androgenetic alopecia by exosomes secreted from hair papilla cells and the intervention effect of LTF
Exosomes from hair papilla cells and the Chinese medicine Liao Tuo Fang can potentially promote hair growth and could be used to develop hair growth drugs.
research Sex hormone supplementation improves breathing and restores respiratory neuroplasticity following C2 hemisection in rats
Sex hormone supplements help improve breathing and nerve recovery after spinal injury in rats.
research Hormones and COVID-19
Estrogen may help improve COVID-19 outcomes, especially in women.
research Design and Validation of a Sensitive Multisteroid LC-MS/MS Assay for the Routine Clinical Use: One-Step Sample Preparation with Phospholipid Removal and Comparison to Immunoassays
The new LC-MS/MS method is more accurate and reliable than traditional immunoassays for measuring steroids in serum.
research Role of Androgen Receptor in Hypothalamic Regulation of Metabolism and Reproduction
Androgen receptors in the brain affect metabolism and reproduction differently in males and females, and may help manage PCOS symptoms in females.
research The prostaglandin synthases, COX-2 and L-PGDS, mediate prostate hyperplasia induced by low-dose bisphenol A
Low-dose bisphenol A increases prostate size in rats by affecting certain enzymes.
research Early androgen activity after birth determines the hypothalamic expression of androgen and estrogen receptors in adulthood in female but not in male rats
Early androgen exposure affects hormone receptor expression in adult female rats' brains, but not in males.
research The role of estrogen in cutaneous ageing and repair
Estrogen helps improve skin aging and healing, especially in post-menopausal women.
research Mixture effects of endocrine disrupting compounds in vitro
Weak endocrine disruptors in mixtures can have significant effects and should be considered in risk assessments.
research Neo-synthesis of estrogenic or androgenic neurosteroids determine whether long-term potentiation or depression is induced in hippocampus of male rat
DHT is needed for long-term depression, while E2 is needed for full long-term potentiation in male rat brains.
research 5alpha-reductase 2 inhibition impairs brain defeminization of male rats: Reproductive aspects
5alpha-reductase 2 is crucial for proper male brain development and sexual differentiation.
research Young coconut juice can accelerate the healing process of cutaneous wounds
Young coconut juice speeds up wound healing.
research Dose–Response Effects of Oral Melatonin on Reproductive Parameters in Intact Male Pomeranian Dogs With Alopecia X: A Controlled Study
Melatonin improved reproductive function in male Pomeranian dogs with Alopecia X, but more research is needed.
research Beyond Monotherapy: Adjunctive Treatments with Minoxidil for Androgenetic Alopecia
Combining minoxidil with other treatments like finasteride or PRP improves hair growth and satisfaction more than using minoxidil alone.
research Effect of the 5α-reductase enzyme inhibitor dutasteride in the brain of intact and parkinsonian mice
Dutasteride may protect the brain in early Parkinson's disease.
research Hormone-active ovarian steroid cell tumor in a 2-year-old girl
A rare ovarian tumor in a 2-year-old girl was successfully removed, normalizing her hormone levels.
research Impaired Prolactin-Lowering Effects of Metformin in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Metformin lowers prolactin in women without PCOS but not in those with PCOS, where it reduces other hormones instead.
research INTERSTITIAL CELL TUMOR IN A BLACK-AND-WHITE RUFFED LEMUR (VARECIA VARIEGATUS VARIEGATUS)
The lemur's testicular tumor was removed, improving its coat and behavior, with no signs of cancer spread.
research Progesterone Promotes Anti-Anxiety/Depressant-like Behavior and Trophic Actions of BDNF in the Hippocampus of Female Nuclear Progesterone Receptor, but Not 5α-Reductase, Knockout Mice
Progesterone reduces anxiety and depression in female mice by increasing BDNF in the brain, needing 5α-reduction and estradiol.
research An estrogen receptor pathway regulates the telogen-anagen hair follicle transition and influences epidermal cell proliferation.
Estrogen affects hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
