180-210 / 1000+ results research Antiandrogens — Basic Concepts for Treatment
Antiandrogens can treat excess body hair and hair loss by blocking male hormones.
research Sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) and androgen levels in women with androgenetic alopecia
The T/SHBG ratio may be a useful marker for androgen activity in women with androgenetic alopecia.
research Test yolk buffer and antisperm antibodies—interaction?
Finasteride is an effective and well-tolerated treatment for hirsutism.
research Androgenisierung
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and individualized treatment are crucial for managing androgenization in women effectively.
research 892 Behavior of the two circulating androgens testosterone and DHEA and their main intracellular metabolites in an androgen-sensitive sebocyte cell line
Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.
research Tu1491 – Use of Androgen Lowering Medications Finasteride and Dutasteride Do Not Substantially Alter Risk of Incident Hcvrelated Hepatcellular Carcinoma in Men
Androgen lowering medications don't significantly change HCV-related liver cancer risk in men.
research Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) have specific impacts on the mouse uterus
GTx-024 and Danazol affect the uterus like DHT, while GTx-007 has little impact.
research The Effects of Transdermal Dihydrotestosterone in the Aging Male: A Prospective, Randomized, Double Blind Study
Dihydrotestosterone gel improved well-being and sexual function in older men without negatively affecting prostate health.
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF DEHYDROEPYAN- DROSTERONE-SULFATE IN MEN WITH ANDROGE- NETIC ALOPECIA
Men with androgenetic alopecia do not have elevated DHEA-S levels.
research A controlled study of the effects of RU58841, a non-steroidal antiandrogen, on human hair production by balding scalp grafts maintained on testosterone-conditioned nude mice
research An isotope dilution-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based candidate reference measurement procedure for the quantification of dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate in human serum and plasma
A new method accurately measures DHEAS in blood, improving on current tests.
research Synthesis, antiproliferative, acute toxicity and assessment of antiandrogenic activities of some newly synthesized steroidal lactams
research ISID1343 - Efficacy of asymmetric siRNA targeting androgen receptor for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
The conclusion is that a treatment called cp-asiAR can reduce hair loss and promote hair growth, making it a potential new therapy for androgenetic alopecia.
research Adrenal 21-hydroxylase gene mutations in Slovenian hyperandrogenic women: evaluation of corticotrophin stimulation and HLA polymorphisms in screening for carrier status
The study concluded that testing hormone levels after stimulation is not reliable for identifying carriers of 21-hydroxylase deficiency; genetic testing is necessary.
research Evidence-based approach to cutaneous hyperandrogenism in women
The conclusion is that oral contraceptives and antiandrogens can treat hirsutism and acne in women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism, but more research is needed for effective treatments, especially for hair loss.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.

3-tetrazolo steroidal analogs can strongly inhibit the enzyme linked to hair loss.
research Prostate Specific Antigen as Predictive Factor for Androgenemia in Women
PSA can help diagnose high androgen levels in women.
research Determination of steroid hormones in human hair as a retrospective biomarker with HPLC-MS/MS
A new method accurately measures long-term hormone levels in hair.
research Novel inhibitors of 5α-reductase

Analyzing hair with this method can help understand and monitor scalp conditions and treatment effects.
research Anti-androgen therapy in dermatology: a review
Anti-androgens are effective for female acne but less so for male-pattern hair loss, with side effects similar to birth control pills.
research The Antiandrogens
research A comprehensive investigation into the molecular mechanism responsible for selective androgen receptor (SARM) tissue-selectivity
SARMs work differently in tissues due to unique interactions and structures.
research A systematic review of antiandrogens and feminization in transgender women
Some antiandrogens may lower testosterone better than others, but it's unclear which is best for feminization in transgender women; more research is needed.
