research Managing Menopausal Skin: A Clinician’s Review
Menopause affects skin and hair, and more research is needed for effective treatments.
research The profile of steroid hormones in human fetal and adult ovaries
Fetal ovaries produce different hormones than adult ovaries, and endocrine-disrupting chemicals may affect this process.
research Effect of Leuprolide and Dexamethasone on Hair Growth and Hormone Levels in Hirsute Women: The Relative Importance of the Ovary and the Adrenal in the Pathogenesis of Hirsutism*
The ovary mainly causes high testosterone in PCO, while the adrenal gland is the main source in IH.
research A Rare Case Report of Postmenopausal Virilization: Ovarian Steroid Cell Tumor
A rare benign ovarian tumor caused virilization in a postmenopausal woman, treated successfully with surgery.
research Differential Suppression of Testosterone and Estradiol in Hirsute Women With the Superactive Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist Leuprolide*
Leuprolide effectively reduces hair growth in hirsute women at higher doses.
research SUN-115 Leydig Cell Tumor: A Rare Cause of Hyperandrogenism
Leydig cell tumors in the ovary can cause high testosterone and male traits in postmenopausal women but are treatable with surgery.
research Enzalutamide/finasteride/goserelin/zoledronic-acid
research Hyperandrogenic eumenorrheic NON-PCOS women versus women with PCOS after the GnRH-agonist stimulation test preceded by suppression of adrenal steroidogenesis with dexamethasone
PCOS women have more severe metabolic issues and higher androgen levels than hyperandrogenic women without PCOS.
research Approach to androgen excess in women: Clinical and biochemical insights
The document concludes that a systematic approach is crucial to identify causes of androgen excess in women beyond the most common cause, Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
research Ginecomastia por finasteride
research An Adult With Hair Loss! a Rare Case of Non-Classical 3β Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (3β HSD) Deficiency
A woman's hair loss and other symptoms were due to a rare hormone deficiency treatable with steroids.
research Relationship Between Steroid Hormones and Metabolic Profile in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Overweight women with PCOS have higher levels of certain hormones that could indicate a higher risk of heart and metabolic problems.
research 9243 Postmenopausal Hyperandrogenism due to Rare Ovarian Tumor
A rare ovarian tumor caused high testosterone in a postmenopausal woman, resolved by surgery.
research [Analysis of steroids and binding proteins in the blood of women with androgenetic alopecia].
Women with androgenetic alopecia have normal levels of most blood steroids and binding proteins, but higher dehydroepiandrosterone. Some also have low "sex hormone-binding globulin" and "corticosteroide-binding globulin" capacity, and high "free androgen index" and "free cortisol index". Diane treatment can normalize these levels and improve hair conditions.
research A Review of the Relationships Between Endogenous Sex Steroids and Incident Ischemic Stroke and Coronary Heart Disease Events
Lower testosterone increases heart disease risk; higher estradiol increases risk in women.
research Cardiovascular risk factors and events in women with androgen excess
Women with androgen excess, especially those with PCOS, have a much higher risk of heart disease and stroke.
research OR20-01 Machine Learning-based Steroid Metabolome Analysis In Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Reveals Three Distinct Androgen Excess Subtypes With Different Metabolic Risk Profiles.
Machine learning identified three unique subtypes of androgen excess in women with PCOS, each with different metabolic risks.
research A comparative analysis of three explanatory models of mental disorder and a preferred focus of explanation
Steroid cell tumors in the ovary are rare, can produce testosterone causing symptoms, and are mainly treated with surgery.
research Clinical and Hormonal Evaluation of Androgen Excess
Most cases of high male hormone levels in women are due to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibition Prevents the Luteal Phase Increase in Plasma Allopregnanolone Levels and Mitigates Symptoms in Women with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder
High-dose dutasteride reduces PMDD symptoms by stabilizing neurosteroid levels.
research Design, synthesis and structure-activity relationships studies on steroidal aromatase and 5α-reductase inhibitors as anti-tumors
Modified steroidal inhibitors showed promise in treating hormone-dependent cancers.
research Effects of orlistat on serum androgen levels among iranian obese women with polycystic ovarian syndrome
Orlistat helped reduce weight and testosterone in obese women with PCOS but did not significantly affect other androgens or cholesterol levels.
research Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Agonist Treatment in Postmenopausal Women with Hyperandrogenism of Ovarian Origin
Treatment with a hormone agonist can reduce excess male hormones in postmenopausal women without surgery.
research Effect of 3-Beta Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase on Serum Testosterone Level in Obese Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
3βHSD2 is not useful for diagnosing PCOS.
research Ovarian hyperthecosis in adolescent females: two case reports and a review of the literature
Ovarian hyperthecosis should be considered in young women with severe male-like symptoms and can be managed with hormone treatments.
research Comparison of Levels of Androgenic Hormones in various Phenotypes of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome in High School Girls aging 14 to 18 Years
Girls with PCOS and menstrual disorders have notably higher androgen hormone levels.
research 6 Peripheral androgens and the role of androstanediol glucuronide
Androstanediol glucuronide is a reliable marker for hirsutism in women.
research A Virilizing Malignant Steroid Cell Tumor-Leydig Cell Subtype in a 24-Year-Old Palestinian Female with Challenging Histopathological and Biochemical Features: A Case Report
A young woman had a rare, aggressive ovarian tumor that was hard to diagnose and treat, leading to disease progression despite treatment.
research Evaluation of an eucalyptus oil containing topical drug delivery system for selected steroid hormones
The eucalyptus oil system improved skin delivery of hormones, but safety concerns remain.
