research Androgenetic alopecia, metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance: Is there any association? A case-control study
Hair loss linked to metabolic issues and insulin resistance; early assessment may reduce future health risks.
research The safety of 52 weeks of oral DHEA therapy for postmenopausal women
Taking DHEA for a year is generally safe for postmenopausal women but may cause acne and more facial hair without improving metabolism or aging.
research Mechanisms Involved in the Relationship between Vitamin D and Insulin Resistance: Impact on Clinical Practice
Vitamin D might help regulate insulin in the body, but taking Vitamin D supplements doesn't clearly prevent or improve type 2 diabetes. More research is needed.
research Putative role for insulin resistance in depression risk in polycystic ovary syndrome

research Suppression of uterine and placental ferroptosis by N-acetylcysteine in a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome
N-acetylcysteine may help treat uterine and placental issues in PCOS.
research Bone Mineral Density is Unaltered in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

research Subclinical hypothyroidism does not influence the metabolic and hormonal profile of women with PCOS
Mild thyroid issues don't affect the metabolism and hormones of women with PCOS.
research Left ventricular myocardial mass index and its correlates as an early marker of cardiovascular risk among nonobese normotensive Indian women with polycystic ovary syndrome: lessons from a cross-sectional study
Nonobese, normotensive Indian women with PCOS may have a higher risk of heart problems linked to inflammation and insulin resistance.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome
The document concludes that managing PCOS involves treating symptoms and reducing long-term metabolic risks, with lifestyle changes being important.
research Factors in the etiopathogenesis of post-adolescent female acne
Hormonal imbalances, not insulin resistance or dyslipidemia, may be more important in causing acne in women over 25.
research Plasma Diaphanous Related Formin 1 Levels Are Associated with Altered Glucose Metabolism and Insulin Resistance in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Case Control Study
Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) have lower levels of a substance called DIAPH1 in their blood, which is linked to changes in sugar metabolism and insulin resistance.
research Health Risks Associated with Long-Term Finasteride and Dutasteride Use: It’s Time to Sound the Alarm
Long-term use of finasteride and dutasteride can cause serious health issues like diabetes and liver problems.
research Targeting the pre-receptor metabolism of cortisol as a novel therapy in obesity and diabetes
Blocking a specific enzyme might help treat obesity and diabetes, but more research is needed to ensure it's safe.
research Association between severity of depression and clinico-biochemical markers of polycystic ovary syndrome
Depression severity is not linked to PCOS markers like BMI, insulin resistance, or testosterone levels.
research Severe impact of late diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia on gender identity, sexual orientation and function: case report and review of the literature
Late diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia can greatly affect physical development, gender identity, and sexual health.
research Surprisingly low infertility rate in married type 2 diabetic women: A rather curious paradox to the current opinion of insulin resistance as the joint pathogenesis of poly cystic ovary syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus
Married women with type 2 diabetes had a surprisingly low infertility rate, suggesting type 2 diabetes and PCOS may be different conditions.
research Androgenetic alopecia and insulin resistance in young men
Hair loss in young men linked to higher risk of insulin resistance and metabolic issues.
research Insulin resistance and its relationship with high molecular weight adiponectin in adolescents with polycystic ovary syndrome and a maternal history of polycystic ovary syndrome
Teens with PCOS and a mom with PCOS have higher insulin resistance and lower adiponectin levels, which could signal early metabolic problems.
research Effect of metformin by employing 2-hour postload insulin for measuring insulin resistance in Taiwanese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Metformin improved insulin resistance and BMI in overweight Taiwanese women with PCOS, and a 2-hour insulin test may be a good screening tool.
research Insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome in female androgenetic alopecia
There's no clear link between female pattern hair loss, insulin resistance, and metabolic syndrome.
