research Finasteride inhibits the disease-modifying activity of progesterone in the hippocampus kindling model of epileptogenesis
Finasteride worsens seizures in epilepsy rats and speeds up epileptogenesis in mice.
research Neurosteroid Synthesis-Mediated Regulation of GABAAReceptors: Relevance to the Ovarian Cycle and Stress
Ovarian and stress hormones can change GABA A receptors through neurosteroids.
research Finasteride inhibits the progesterone-induced spike-wave discharges in a genetic model of absence epilepsy
Finasteride blocks progesterone's effect on absence seizures in rats.
research AN ATTEMPT TO ASSESS THE MAGNITUDE OF ENDOGENOUS ANDROGEN PRODUCTION IN A CASE OF THE ADRENOGENITAL SYNDROME*
A 17-year-old female with adrenogenital syndrome produces very high levels of androgens, which prevent complete feminization despite high estrogen doses.
research Screening for 21-hydroxylase–deficient nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia among hyperandrogenic women: a prospective study
Testing basal 17-HP levels is a good way to screen for nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia in women with high androgen levels.
research Progesterone Inhibits the Growth of Human Neuroblastoma: In Vitro and In Vivo Evidence
Progesterone significantly reduces neuroblastoma tumor growth without harming healthy cells.
research Approach to Investigation of Hyperandrogenism in a Postmenopausal Woman
Postmenopausal hyperandrogenism, a condition with symptoms like increased hair growth and acne, is usually caused by PCOS but can also be due to other factors. It's diagnosed by checking testosterone levels and treated either by removing the adrenal tumor or through antiandrogen therapy.
research Hyperandrogenemia
research Hyperandrogenism in PCOS
In PCOS, high male hormones cause hair growth, acne, and hair loss, affecting periods.
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 Lack of association between clinical and biochemical hyperandrogenism in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome
Clinical signs of excess male hormones and actual hormone levels in the blood do not always match in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
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 Clinical and Hormonal Evaluation of Androgen Excess
Most cases of high male hormone levels in women are due to polycystic ovary syndrome.
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 Effect of Leuprolide and Dexamethasone on Hair Growth and Hormone Levels in Hirsute Women: The Relative Importance of the Ovary and the Adrenal in the Pathogenesis of Hirsutism*
The ovary mainly causes high testosterone in PCO, while the adrenal gland is the main source in IH.
research Hormones and Absence Epilepsy☆
Stress and hormones like progesterone can affect absence seizures, but their effects change with different life stages.
research Inhibition of 5α‐Reductase Activity in Late Pregnancy Decreases Gestational Length and Fecundity and Impairs Object Memory and Central Progestogen Milieu of Juvenile Rat Offspring
Inhibiting 5α-reductase during late pregnancy shortens gestation, reduces litter size, and harms memory in rat offspring.
research Clinical and Hormonal Effects of Chronic Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Agonist Treatment in Polycystic Ovarian Disease*
Chronic GnRHa treatment can help manage endometrial hyperplasia and reduce ovarian androgen excess in PCO patients.
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 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 MON-336 Ovaries Reveal Their Inner Testes
A woman's severe male-like symptoms were caused by a rare, benign tumor in her ovary that produced male hormones.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Finasteride inhibits the disease-modifying activity of progesterone in the hippocampus kindling model of epileptogenesis.
research SAT-223 Insights into Ovarian Hyperandrogenism: Lessons from Two Unusual Cases
The study found that imaging might miss small ovarian tumors causing high testosterone, and suggested using certain testosterone levels and treatment responses to identify these tumors.
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 The effects of synthetic 19-norprogestins on osteoblastic cell function are mediated by their non-phenolic reduced metabolites
Synthetic 19-norprogestins promote bone cell growth and function through their non-phenolic metabolites.
research What do we know about abnormally low prolactin levels in polycystic ovary syndrome? A narrative review
Low prolactin levels in PCOS can cause metabolic problems like insulin resistance and obesity.
research Hyperandrogénie féminine
The document concludes that managing female hyperandrogenism requires a combination of identifying the cause, lifestyle changes, medication, and cosmetic treatments.
research In vivo and in vitro exposure to free fatty acids induce increased androgen production in animal models: a potential pathogenic factor of the polycystic ovary syndrome
Free fatty acids may increase androgen production, potentially contributing to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Overtreatment of Transient Maternal Hyperthyroidism Resulting in Fetal Goiter
Proper diagnosis is crucial to avoid overtreatment and complications in pregnant women with hyperthyroidism.
