research Shorter CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene may enhance hyperandrogenicity in polycystic ovary syndrome
Shorter CAG repeats in a specific gene may increase male hormone activity and symptoms like acne and excess hair in women with PCOS.
research Clinical efficacy and safety of low‐dose flutamide alone and combined with an oral contraceptive for the treatment of idiopathic hirsutism
Low-dose flutamide helps reduce excessive hair growth and is even more effective with birth control, without bad effects on blood fats.
research Alopecia and the metabolic syndrome
Men with common hair loss may have a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes, and should be checked for these conditions.
research Association of Insulin Resistance with Hyperandrogenia in Women
Insulin resistance is linked to high male hormone levels in women, often seen in those with PCOS.
research A missing piece: the spiny mouse and the puzzle of menstruating species
The spiny mouse is a unique menstruating rodent that can help us understand menstruation and reproductive disorders.
research Do follicles matter? Testing the effect of follicles on hair cortisol levels
Hair follicles increase hair cortisol levels, so consistent hair collection methods are important.
research Comparison of methanol and isopropanol as wash solvents for determination of hair cortisol concentration in grizzly bears and polar bears
Methanol is better than isopropanol for washing grizzly bear hair to measure cortisol.
research Urinary steroids in women with androgenic alopecia
Women with hair loss had higher levels of certain hormones, suggesting a link to a condition like PCOS.
research Immunoregulatory mechanisms and stress hormones in psoriasis (part 1)
Stress hormones like cortisol may trigger psoriasis flare-ups.
research COVID-19 and hypopituitarism
COVID-19 and hypopituitarism (reduced pituitary gland function) are linked, with the latter's related health issues potentially worsening COVID-19 outcomes, and COVID-19 possibly increasing risk for pituitary complications.
research Targets to treat androgen excess in polycystic ovary syndrome
The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.
research Hodgkin′s lymphoma presenting as alopecia
Hodgkin's lymphoma can show up as hair loss.
research Temporary Relocation during Rest Periods: Relocation Stress and Other Factors Influence Hair Cortisol Concentrations in Horses
Moving horses to new places can increase their stress levels, as shown by higher stress hormone in their hair.
research Influence of Genotype and Hyperandrogenism on Sexual Function in Women With Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Women with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia experience more sexual dysfunction and distress.
research Differential relationships between chronic hormone profiles in pregnancy and maternal investment in rhesus monkey mothers with hair loss in the neonatal period
Monkeys with hair loss during pregnancy showed higher stress hormone levels and invested differently in their offspring.
research Effect of finasteride on ovulation induction in nonresponder (hyperandrogenic) polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) women
Finasteride helps induce ovulation in nonresponder PCOS women.
research Mild Cutaneous Manifestation in Two Young Women with Extraordinary Hyperandrogenemia
Two women with very high androgen levels had only slight skin issues, one due to a non-classical adrenal disorder and the other due to an adrenal tumor.
research Besnoitiosis in donkeys: an emerging parasitic disease of equids in Italy
Besnoitiosis, a parasitic disease, has been found in donkeys in Italy and may be more common in Europe than previously thought.
research Urinary 5-ene-steroid excretion in non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency (NC-3BHSD)
Some women with excess hair growth have a hormone condition that can't be diagnosed by blood or urine tests alone.
research Evidence of a Causal Relationship Between Body Mass Index and Immune-Mediated and Inflammatory Skin Diseases and Biomarkers: A Mendelian Randomization Study
Higher BMI may increase the risk of psoriasis and some other skin diseases.
research The evaluation and treatment of androgen excess
High androgen levels can cause excessive hair growth and may indicate serious health issues, including heart disease and fertility problems.
research Effect of an oral probiotic formula on scalp and facial skin condition, glucose, and lipid metabolism
Taking a probiotic supplement twice a day improved hair growth, skin hydration, and metabolic health in adults at risk of metabolic syndrome.
research AN UPDATED OVERVIEW OF POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder in women that can cause infertility and other health issues, and it may be improved by treatments that increase insulin sensitivity.
research 258 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibition attenuates the adverse effects of glucocorticoids on dermal papilla cells
Blocking a specific enzyme can reduce the negative impact of stress hormones on hair growth cells.
research Does hair cortisol concentration reflect measurable regulatory biology of the HPA axis in healthy humans?
Hair cortisol concentration partly reflects HPA axis regulation but doesn't capture all its complexities.
research Bias in Hair Cortisol Measures for Psychological Stress: Self vs. Professional Collection
Self-collected hair samples can measure stress but may need adjustments for accuracy.
research Determining Cortisol in Animal Hair as a Marker of Chronic Stress
Hair cortisol can indicate animal stress but varies with many factors.
research Psychophysiological Mechanisms of Stress Impact on Hair Loss Processes
