research The selective androgen receptor modulator GTx‐024 (enobosarm) improves lean body mass and physical function in healthy elderly men and postmenopausal women: results of a double‐blind, placebo‐controlled phase II trial
Enobosarm significantly increased muscle mass and improved physical function in elderly men and postmenopausal women without serious side effects.
research A prospective study of the prevalence of clear-cut endocrine disorders and polycystic ovaries in 350 patients presenting with hirsutism or androgenic alopecia
Most women with hirsutism or androgenic alopecia had polycystic ovaries, especially if they had irregular periods.
research Obesity and the skin
Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.
research The Lipid Profiles in Different Characteristics of Women with PCOS and the Interaction Between Dyslipidemia and Metabolic Disorder States: A Retrospective Study in Chinese Population
Different PCOS characteristics affect lipid profiles, increasing cardiovascular disease risk, so regular lipid screening is advised.
research Hormonal contraceptives: pharmacology tailored to women's health
New hormonal contraceptives are safer, have fewer side effects, and offer health benefits for women.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Changes in the PCOS phenotype with age
PCOS symptoms change with age; younger women have higher androgen levels and less metabolic issues, while older women face more metabolic challenges despite milder PCOS symptoms.
research Alopecia and its association with coronary heart disease and cardiovascular risk factors: A meta-analysis
