research Testosterone therapy for women with low sexual desire: a position statement from the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism
Testosterone therapy may slightly increase sexual desire in women with HSDD but lacks broad recommendation due to safety concerns and limited approval.
research Interventions for Hirsutism
Oral contraceptives help mild hirsutism, while flutamide and spironolactone help severe cases.
research Comparison of a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist and a low dose oral contraceptive given alone or together in the treatment of hirsutism.
Combining a GnRH agonist with a low-dose oral contraceptive is more effective and safer for treating hirsutism than using either alone.
research [Local therapy of androgenetic alopecia with 17 alpha-estradiol. A controlled, randomized double-blind study (author’s transl)].
Hair lotions with 17 alpha-estradiol can reduce hair loss but won't regrow new hair.
research Pharmacokinetic and Therapeutic Dose Comparison of Diane-35 and IVF-C Inj 5000 IU in Common Quail
Both steroids, especially cyproterone acetate, harm quail's vital organs.
research Hair Cycle Control by Estrogens: Catagen Induction via Estrogen Receptor (ER)-α Is Checked by ERβ Signaling
Estrogen receptors affect hair growth, with ER beta slowing down the hair cycle changes caused by ER alpha.
research Dutasteride nanoemulsion preparation to inhibit 5-alpha-hair follicle reductase enzymes in the hair follicle; an ex vivo study.
The dutasteride nanoemulsion could improve hair loss treatment by enhancing drug penetration and retention in hair follicles.
research Potent Antioxidative and UVB Protective Effect of Water Extract ofEclipta prostrataL.

research Dutasteride/finasteride
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.
research Low-dose (2.5 mg/day) finasteride treatment in hirsutism
Low-dose finasteride effectively reduces hirsutism without serious side-effects.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research (282) CONSEQUENCES OF ANABOLIC-ANDROGENIC STEROID ABUSE IN MALES: RESULTS FROM A META-ANALYSIS STUDY
Anabolic-androgenic steroids harm male hormone levels, sperm, metabolism, and can cause acne, hair loss, and breast growth.
research Trilostane treatment of a dog with functional adrenocortical neoplasia
Trilostane helped a dog with an adrenal tumor feel better and stay healthy.
research Invalidation of a commercially available human 5α-dihydrotestosterone immunoassay
The DHT immunoassay is unreliable due to high cross-reactivity with testosterone.
research Finasteride Blocks the Reduction in Ictal Activity Produced by Exogenous Estrous Cyclicity
research Spironolactone in combination drug therapy for unresponsive hirsutism
Combination drug therapy is effective for hirsutism that doesn't improve with just one medication.
research A high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay of the androgenic neurosteroid 3α-androstanediol (5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol) in plasma
Testosterone increases 3α-androstanediol levels, which can be blocked by finasteride.
research Fulvestrant, a new treatment option for advanced breast cancer: tolerability versus existing agents
Fulvestrant is a well-tolerated new treatment for advanced breast cancer that may delay chemotherapy.
research Treatment Options for Hirsutism: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis
