960-990 / 1000+ results research Androgens and Anti-androgen Therapy
Antiandrogen therapy, like cyproterone acetate, effectively treats acne, hirsutism, and hair loss.
research Urinary symptoms in patients with androgenetic alopecia
Lower nitric oxide and higher fibrinogen found in hirsute women; impaired sexual function in 22.6% of hair loss patients, linked to psoriasis severity.
research Topical Antiandrogens
Topical antiandrogens might treat skin issues like hair growth, balding, and acne, but finding effective treatments without side effects is challenging.
research Effects of finasteride, a 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, on circulating androgens and gonadotropin secretion in hirsute women.
Finasteride reduces dihydrotestosterone, increases testosterone, and may treat hirsutism in women.
research The clinical evaluation of hirsutism
Hirsutism is excessive hair growth in women often caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome, and identifying the cause is important for managing associated health risks.
research Aspects of Cutaneous Androgen‐Dependent Syndromes
Understanding hormones is key to treating certain skin conditions.
research Hormonal profile and androgen receptor study in prepubertal girls with hypertrichosis
Prepubertal girls with hypertrichosis have more sensitive androgen receptors, leading to increased body hair growth.
research The Evaluation of the Role of Androgens in Hirsutism and the Use of a New Anti-androgen “Cyproterone Acetate” for Therapy
Cyproterone acetate combined with ethinyl estradiol significantly reduced hirsutism in women.
research Approach to androgen excess in women: Clinical and biochemical insights
The document concludes that a systematic approach is crucial to identify causes of androgen excess in women beyond the most common cause, Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
research Steroid inhibitors of androgen-potentiated actions on skin
Certain hormones can reduce skin oil and hair growth, potentially helping treat acne and excessive hair in women.
research Idiopathic hirsutism: Is it really idiopathic or is it misnomer?
Idiopathic hirsutism might not be truly idiopathic but could be an early stage of hyperandrogenic disorders.
research Hirsutism, Normal Androgens and Diagnosis of PCOS
Hirsutism can occur in women with PCOS even if their androgen levels are normal, making diagnosis challenging.
research Sex hormone–binding globulin and risk of hyperglycemia in patients with androgenetic alopecia
People with hair loss have higher risk of high blood sugar and diabetes, and lower levels of a specific hormone.
research Adult Onset Isolated Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism- a Cause of Secondary Amenorrhea
A 23-year-old woman's missed periods were caused by a rare genetic disorder treated with hormone patches.
research Pharmacology of Anti-androgens in the Skin
Anti-androgens can help reduce the effects of male hormones on the skin.
research Hormonal Parameters in Androgenetic Hair Loss in the Male
Men with male pattern hair loss have different levels of certain hormones compared to men without hair loss.
research Steroid Cell Tumours: Rare Ovarian Tumours that Cause Hyperandrogenaemia in Postmenopausal Women
Rare ovarian tumors can cause increased male hormones in postmenopausal women; surgery is an effective treatment.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.
research 11-Oxyandrogens in Adolescents With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Girls with PCOS have higher levels of certain androgens, which are linked to excess hair growth, but these androgens don't help diagnose PCOS.
research The challenging role of antiandrogens in the management of polycystic ovary syndrome
Antiandrogens are used to manage polycystic ovary syndrome by reducing androgen levels or controlling their effects, often combined with lifestyle changes and other treatments.
research Androgen excess is the key element in polycystic ovary syndrome
Too much male hormone is the main cause of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research 11-oxyandrogen Concentrations in Adolescents With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)
Adolescents with PCOS have higher levels of certain androgens, which are linked to hair growth but don't help diagnose PCOS better than testosterone levels.
research Silencing the androgen receptor: New skills for antiandrogen oligonucleotide skin and hair therapy
Targeting androgen receptors with antiandrogen oligonucleotides could effectively treat hair loss.
research (101) Ovarian Hyperthecosis as a Cause of Hypersexualization in a Post-menopausal Female
Ovarian Hyperthecosis caused hypersexuality in an older woman and was successfully treated with surgery.
research Clinical biochemistry of dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
research Androstenedione
Androstenedione, a hormone supplement, doesn't improve muscle or performance and can cause harmful side effects.
research Bone mineral density in hyperandrogenic amenorrhoea
Women with hyperandrogenic amenorrhea have similar bone density to healthy women but lower than androgenized women without amenorrhea, and high DHEAS levels might affect bone density.
research Acne and hirsuties in teenagers
