11-oxyandrogens are linked to excess hair growth in PCOS, but don't help diagnose it.
research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research Effects of androgen overproduction on skin target organs in children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia
research Serum androgen levels and their relationship to pattern and severity of hair growth in hirsute women presenting at private centre in Hyderabad
Higher androgen levels are linked to more severe hair growth in hirsute women.
research Androstenedione
Androstenedione, a hormone supplement, doesn't improve muscle or performance and can cause harmful side effects.
research Diagnosis and management of patients with hyperandrogenism in early reproductive age
Effective management of hyperandrogenism in young women requires accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment.
research Androgens in women
Androgens play a complex role in skin conditions like acne and hair loss in women, and normal blood levels don't always show true androgen status.
research [Hirsutism].
Hirsutism is excessive male-pattern hair growth mainly caused by ovarian hormones, and severe cases may require costly treatment with side effects.
research Ovarian hyperthecosis in adolescent females: two case reports and a review of the literature
Ovarian hyperthecosis should be considered in young women with severe male-like symptoms and can be managed with hormone treatments.
research A case of severe hyperandrogenism, acanthosis nigricans and overt diabetes: the use of non-invasive methods for diagnosis, pathogenesis and management
Non-invasive imaging helped diagnose a woman's severe hormone imbalance and diabetes, and medication successfully treated her condition.
research Correlation of clinical and biochemical hyperandrogenism in Thai women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Blood tests are needed to confirm high male hormone levels in women with PCOS, as physical signs alone are not reliable.
research Defining hyperandrogenaemia according to the free androgen index in Chinese women: a cross-sectional study
FAI values above 6.4 may suggest high androgen levels and increased metabolic risks in Chinese women of reproductive age.
research BIOACTIVE AND PERIPHERAL ANDROGENS IN PREPUBERTAL SIMPLE HYPERTRICHOSIS
Girls with prepubertal simple hypertrichosis have higher dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels.
research Prevalence of hyperandrogenemia in the polycystic ovary syndrome diagnosed by the National Institutes of Health 1990 criteria
Most women with PCOS have high levels of male hormones, and free testosterone is the best marker for this.
research Presence of hyperandrogenemia in cases evaluated due to menstrual irregularity, the effect of clinical and/or biochemical hyperandrogenemia on polycystic ovary syndrome
Elevated testosterone, DHEA-S, and FAI help identify PCOS risk in menstrual irregularities.
research Cardiovascular risk factors and events in women with androgen excess
Women with androgen excess, especially those with PCOS, have a much higher risk of heart disease and stroke.
research Pathogenesis and causes of hirsutism
Hirsutism is mainly caused by high androgen levels or sensitivity, with PCOS being the most common cause.
research Prevalence of functional disorders of androgen excess in unselected premenopausal women: a study in blood donors
Many young women who donate blood have hormonal disorders like excess male hormones and PCOS.
research The Association Between Clinical and Biochemical Hyperandrogenism in Women With Female Pattern Hair Loss
Female pattern hair loss severity is linked to physical signs of high androgens, not blood hormone levels.
research Hirsutism
Hirsutism, excessive hair growth in women, often caused by high androgen levels and polycystic ovary syndrome, can be treated with medication and weight management.
research Bilateral Leydig Cell Hyperplasia: A Rare Cause of Postmenopausal Hirsutism
An unusual growth of Leydig cells in a woman's ovaries caused her excessive hair growth, which was treated successfully with surgery.
research Postmenopausal Hyperandrogenism in a Patient With an Adrenal Adenoma: How Should We Approach It?
Removing both ovaries treated the woman's excess male hormone symptoms.
research Postmenopausal Hyperandrogenism Associated With Synchronous Ovarian Brenner Tumor, Bilateral Leydig Cell Tumor, and Adrenal Mass
A thorough diagnostic process and teamwork are crucial for managing complex hyperandrogenism in postmenopausal women.
research Female Hirsutism: Pathophysiological Considerations and Therapeutic Implications*
Excessive hair growth in women often has no known cause and is not linked to race or other hormonal symptoms.
research [Hirsutism].
Hirsutism is excessive male-pattern hair growth in women, often treated cosmetically or with hormone therapy if contraception is also desired.
research Androgen Resistance Associated With a Qualitative Abnormality of the Androgen Receptor and Responsive to High Dose Androgen Therapy*
High-dose androgen therapy can help manage certain types of androgen resistance.
research [Hormones--underestimated problem in dermatology. Part I. Diseases connected with excessive androgenisation].
Hormones beyond androgens may cause acne and hair loss.
research Hormonal Evaluation of Hyperandrogenism in Women
The woman's high testosterone levels indicated PCOS, leading to treatment that improved her symptoms.
research Distribution of Body Hair in Young Australian Women and Associations With Serum Androgen Concentrations
More body hair in young Australian women is linked to higher androstenedione levels.
