Testosterone and its metabolites have varied effects on different body systems, especially during puberty.
research Sexual dysfunction, including hypoactive sexual desire disorder: Diagnosis and treatment recommendations
Testosterone therapy can improve sexual function in women but long-term safety is unclear.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Complex Interplay of Hormones and Metabolism
PCOS involves hormonal and metabolic issues, increasing risks for diabetes and heart disease, and requires lifestyle changes and medication for management.
research Finasteride-Induced Inhibition of 5α-Reductase Type 2 Could Lead to Kidney Damage—Animal, Experimental Study
Finasteride may cause kidney damage.
research Treatment of female sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal women—What is the evidence?
Hormonal changes and psychological issues can cause sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal women. Behavioral therapy is recommended first, with hormone replacement helping some symptoms but not libido. Testosterone can improve libido, but its effects on overall sexual function are unclear. Emotional and relationship issues should be addressed before using medication, and the benefits and risks of testosterone supplementation should be considered.
research HSD3B1 Genotypes Conferring Adrenal-Restrictive and Adrenal-Permissive Phenotypes in Prostate Cancer and Beyond
Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.
research Genetic predictors of testosterone and their associations with cardiovascular disease and risk factors: A Mendelian randomization investigation
Testosterone is linked to cardiovascular risk factors and stroke, but its exact role is unclear.
research Reconsidering the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
PCOS should be reclassified into two types based on hormone levels and symptoms.
research Advances in mitochondria-centered mechanism behind the roles of androgens and androgen receptor in the regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism
Androgens and androgen receptors are important for metabolic health, affecting how the body uses glucose and fats through mitochondrial function.
research The impact of exogenous vitamin D on thyroid autoimmunity in euthyroid men with autoimmune thyroiditis and early-onset androgenic alopecia
Vitamin D may help reduce antibody levels in men with autoimmune thyroiditis and early-onset androgenic alopecia, but has no significant impact on thyroid function.
research A phase IIA randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to study the efficacy and safety of the selective androgen receptor modulator (SARM), MK-0773 in female participants with sarcopenia
MK-0773 safely increased muscle mass but did not improve muscle strength or function in elderly women with sarcopenia.
research Testosterone metabolite nonessential for androgen effects
The body's change of testosterone into DHT is not necessary for testosterone's muscle and sexual effects.
research The therapeutic use of androgens in women
Testosterone replacement may improve sexual desire and bone health in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed on its long-term safety.
research Management of “hyperandrogenism” confounded by dermatology biotin prescriptions
Biotin can interfere with lab tests, causing misdiagnosis.
research Identification of hepatic molecular mechanisms of action of alpha-tocopherol using global gene expression profile analysis in rats
Vitamin E affects liver metabolism, enhancing stress resistance, reducing blood clotting, and altering hormone processing.
research Epitestosterone
Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research Endocrinology
