research Androgen treatment in women
Testosterone therapy can help improve sexual function, mood, and bone density in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed on long-term safety.
research Facial Appearance and Markers of Cardiometabolic Risk in Healthy Adult Men
Men's facial appearance shows age, body fat, and testosterone levels, not metabolic health.
research Diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome
PCOS is diagnosed when at least two of these three features are present: polycystic ovaries, irregular ovulation, and high androgen levels.
research 5α‐Reductase inhibitors and prostatic disease
5α-Reductase inhibitors can help treat hair loss, acne, and prostate issues by reducing DHT levels.
research Hair cortisol/cortisone in combined oral contraceptive users: An exploratory analysis
COC use doesn't increase hair stress hormone levels, but hair treatments may affect results.
research Growth Hormone and the Human Hair Follicle
Growth hormone levels affect hair growth and loss, with too much causing excess hair and too little leading to hair loss.
research 3 alpha, 17 beta-androstanediol glucuronide in plasma. A marker of androgen action in idiopathic hirsutism.
High levels of 3 alpha-diol glucuronide in the blood are a marker of increased androgen action in women with excessive hair growth of unknown cause.
research Hippocampal 3α,5α-THP may alter depressive behavior of pregnant and lactating rats
Higher 3α,5α-THP levels in the brain may reduce depression in pregnant rats.
research Aromatase-independent testosterone conversion into estrogenic steroids is inhibited by a 5α-reductase inhibitor
Combining 5α-reductase and aromatase inhibitors may better reduce estrogen levels.
research Hyperandrogenism and menstrual imbalance are the best predictors of metformin response in PCOS patients
High levels of male hormones and irregular periods best predict how well PCOS patients will respond to metformin treatment.
research Adolescent acne: association to sex, puberty, testosterone and dihydrotestosterone
Higher DHT levels are linked to more acne in adolescents, especially boys.
research Serum phoenixin-14 and phoenixin-20 concentrations in polycystic ovary syndrome: Associations with anti-Müllerian hormone and diagnostic utility
Phoenixin levels are higher in PCOS patients and may help in diagnosis.
research Placental mRNA expression of Neurokinin B is increased in PCOS pregnancies with female offspring.
Neurokinin B levels are higher in the placentas of women with PCOS who have female babies.
research Investigation of the relationship between serum hormones and pilonidal sinus disease: a cross‐sectional study
Higher prolactin levels in women may be linked to pilonidal sinus disease.
research Dysregulation of Leukaemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) Signalling Pathway by Supraphysiological Dose of Testosterone in Female Sprague Dawley Rats During Development of Endometrial Receptivity
High testosterone levels can harm fertility by disrupting the LIF signaling pathway in the uterus.
research Effects of lifelong testosterone exposure on health and disease using Mendelian randomization
Higher testosterone levels can increase the risk of certain diseases like type 2 diabetes in women and prostate cancer in men, but can also protect against autoimmune diseases and hair loss. It also affects body fat and bone density.
research Validation and Reference Ranges of Hair Cortisol Measurement in Healthy Children
Hair cortisol levels in children increase with age but are not affected by gender, puberty, or hair care.
research Hormone replacement therapy in morphine-induced hypogonadic male chronic pain patients
Testosterone therapy can improve hormone levels and quality of life in men with morphine-induced hormone issues.
research A high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay of the androgenic neurosteroid 3α-androstanediol (5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol) in plasma
Testosterone increases 3α-androstanediol levels, which can be blocked by finasteride.
research Baicalin inhibits recruitment of GATA1 to the HSD3B2 promoter and reverses hyperandrogenism of PCOS
Baicalin may help reduce excessive male hormone levels in PCOS.
research Deciphering the Role of Androgen in the Dermatologic Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Patients: A State-of-the-Art Review

High triglyceride levels are a key factor affecting testosterone levels in women with PCOS.
research Exploring rat corpus cavernosum alterations induced by finasteride treatment and withdrawal
Finasteride changes hormone levels and certain proteins in rats, but these effects can be reversed after stopping the drug.
research Correlation of ovarian volume and clinical and laboratory parameters of PCOS in Korean patients
Ovarian volume is significantly related to higher levels of certain hormones in Korean women with PCOS.
research The Diagnostic Value of Serum Ferritin for Telogen Effluvium: A Cross-Sectional Comparative Study
Low iron levels in the blood could be a sign of Telogen Effluvium, a type of hair loss, but it's not always accurate in distinguishing it from other hair loss types.
research SAT-224 Polycystic Ovary Syndrome with Adrenal Hyperandrogenemia and Refractory Hirsutism
