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 Full investigation of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) presenting to four different clinical specialties reveals significant differences and undiagnosed morbidity
Many women with PCOS have undiagnosed health issues and show different symptoms based on the clinic they visit.
research Hospital-based prevalence of polycystic ovarian syndrome among Omani women
About 7% of Omani women visiting a gynecology clinic had polycystic ovarian syndrome, similar to rates in other countries.
research Association of AR rs6152G/A gene polymorphism with susceptibility to polycystic ovary syndrome in Chinese women
A certain gene variant may increase the risk of polycystic ovary syndrome in Chinese women.
research Combined oral contraceptives promote androgen receptor and oestrogen receptor alpha upregulation in the female prostate (Skene’s paraurethral glands) of adult gerbils (Meriones unguiculatus)
Birth control pills increase certain receptor activities in female gerbil prostate glands and can lead to prostate changes.
research The evaluation of endothelial function with flow-mediated dilatation and carotid intima media thickness in young nonobese polycystic ovary syndrom patients; existence of insulin resistance alone may not represent an adequate condition for deterioration of endothelial function
Insulin resistance might not be enough to worsen blood vessel function in young, nonobese women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research P-424
Heavier birth weight may increase the risk of early hair graying in women.
research Affect of a six months treatment regiment of metformin (MET) on 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17P) responses to GnRH agonist (GnRH Ag) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Metformin can start ovulation and may lower 17P response in PCOS, but six months is too short to improve hair growth or change body fat distribution.
research Treatment of hirsutism with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist and estrogen replacement therapy
The combination therapy reduced hirsutism in women with PCOD and was well-tolerated.
research Levonorgestrel effects on serum androgens, sex hormone–binding globulin levels, hair shaft diameter, and sexual function

A specific gene variation is linked to a higher risk of polycystic ovary syndrome in Caucasian women.
research The role of benign prostatic hyperplasia treatments in ejaculatory dysfunction
Treatments for enlarged prostate can cause problems with ejaculation, and less invasive options might preserve sexual function better.
research 174 ISOLATION, CULTURE AND POTENTIAL USE OF THE PORCINE NEURAL AND EPIDERMAL STEM CELLS
Porcine hair follicles are useful for studying keratinocyte function, with galectin-1 as a potential stem cell marker.
research Enhanced polycystic ovary syndrome screening: incorporating population and symptom-specific scales into a validated questionnaire and assessment of the syndrome’s associated factors: an analytical cross-sectional study
Efficient PCOS screening is crucial for early detection, with lifestyle factors like fruit intake potentially aiding prevention.
research From bench to babies – drug development for male subfertility
New methods may speed up drug development for male subfertility.
research Pattern of body fat distribution in patients of PCOS using DEXA-based indices
PCOS patients have more central body fat, which can be effectively measured using DEXA.
research Bioinformatic network analysis on the molecular interactions between Parkinson’s disease, alpha-synuclein, and infertility condition

research Concurrent autoimmune and endocrine dysregulation in polycystic ovary syndrome
Autoimmune markers may help diagnose and manage PCOS.
research Association of hirsutism and anthropometric profiles with sexual dysfunction and anxiety levels in infertile Indonesian women with polycystic ovarian syndrome

research Improved Cardiovascular Effects of a Novel Pomegranate Byproduct Extract Obtained through Hydrodynamic Cavitation
A new pomegranate extract lowers blood pressure and has health benefits.
research Effects of maintaining solstice light and temperature on reproductive activity, coat growth, plasma prolactin and melatonin in goats
Goat reproductive activity and coat growth are affected by light and temperature, with temperature altering prolactin levels and hair growth, but not melatonin or estrus onset.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitor therapy: Should physicians be concerned with persistent diminished libido, erectile dysfunction and depression in a subset of patients?
Some patients may experience lasting sexual dysfunction, depression, and other side effects from 5α-reductase inhibitor therapy.

research The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Evolutionary Paradox: a Genome-Wide Association Studies–Based, in silico, Evolutionary Explanation
The research suggests that the global distribution of PCOS is likely due to historical human migration and that genes affecting PCOS may have different impacts on males and females.
research Genetic basis of polycystic ovary syndrome
