Fetal environments contain various chemicals that may disrupt hormones.
research Emerging concepts about prenatal genesis, aberrant metabolism and treatment paradigms in polycystic ovary syndrome
PCOS may start before birth, involves metabolic issues, and can be treated with drugs like metformin and lifestyle changes.
research Uncovering the complex relationship between balding, testosterone and skin cancers in men
Men with baldness are more prone to skin cancers on the scalp due to sun exposure, not testosterone.
research LACK OF EFFECT OF OESTROGENS ON ADRENAL ANDROGEN SECRETION IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS WITH A COMMENT ON OESTROGENS AND PUBIC HAIR GROWTH
Oestrogen does not affect adrenal androgen levels in children and adolescents.
research Evaluation of the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride on reproduction and gonadal development in medaka, Oryzias latipes

PCOS is caused by both genetics and environmental factors like diet and obesity.
research Menopausal Androgen Excess - Associated Cardio-Metabolic Risk: Clues for Ovarian Leydig Cell Tumour (Case Report and Mini-Review of Literature)
High androgen levels in postmenopausal women may suggest an ovarian tumor, and removing it can improve heart and metabolic health.
research Maternal androgen excess significantly impairs sexual behavior in male and female mouse offspring: Perspective for a biological origin of sexual dysfunction in PCOS
Too much male hormone in mothers can negatively affect the sexual behavior of both male and female baby mice.
research Smart stimuli-responsive microneedle platforms for precision androgenetic alopecia therapy: Materials strategy and therapeutic perspectives

Chromosomal differences affect how muscle cells respond to testosterone.
research Detection of the nuclear translocation of androgen receptor using quantitative and automatic cell imaging analysis
A new method helps detect androgen receptor movement in cells, aiding research on hair loss treatments.
research Sex differences in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis’ response to stress: an important role for gonadal hormones
Male and female bodies respond differently to stress, influenced by hormones and development stages, with implications for stress-related diseases.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research CONTRACEPTION AND THE SKIN
Birth control pills can cause skin issues but may help with acne and hirsutism, and choosing the right type can minimize side effects.
research Hormonal Organization of Sex Differences in Play Fighting and Spatial Behavior
Gonadal hormones may influence sex differences in play fighting in animals, but their effect on human spatial behavior is unclear and needs more research.
research Epitestosterone
Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.
