Dutasteride helps reduce heavy drinking, especially for those who drink to cope.
research Early postnatal inhibition of neurosteroid synthesis changes the later-life adverse outcome of neonatal asphyxia in rats
Finasteride reduced seizures and prevented cognitive issues in rats after neonatal asphyxia but increased anxiety later.
research Effect of Neurosteroids on Basal and Stress-Induced Oxytocin Secretion in Luteal-Phase and Pregnant Sheep
Neurosteroids help regulate oxytocin levels, especially during stress and pregnancy, to protect against premature labor.
research Sex-dependent effect of a low neurosteroid environment and intrauterine growth restriction on fetal guinea pig brain development.
Reduced neurosteroids and growth issues can harm fetal brain development, especially in males.
research Role of allopregnanolone biosynthesis in acute stress-induced anxiety-like behaviors in mice
Blocking allopregnanolone production in mice makes them more anxious after stress, but this can be reversed with a drug that mimics allopregnanolone.
