Mercury can disrupt sex hormones and cause reproductive issues.
research THE GENETICS OF CYP GENE VARIANTS IN ASSOCIATION WITH POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME: A NARRATIVE REVIEW
Genetic variants in CYP genes may worsen PCOS symptoms.
research Hair Cortisol: A Biomarker of Chronic Stress in Animals and its Association with Reproduction
High levels of cortisol in hair show long-term stress which can lower fertility in animals.
research The Steroidogenesis Inhibitor Finasteride Reduces the Response to Both Stressful and Rewarding Stimuli
Finasteride reduces response to stress and rewards, affecting behavior and mental health.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Androgen Profiling by Liquid Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in Healthy Normal-Weight Ovulatory and Anovulatory Late Adolescent and Young Women
The research found that anovulatory young women have higher androgen and hormone levels than those who ovulate, suggesting immature hormonal regulation rather than a specific condition.
research Use of oral contraceptives in the management of acne
Birth control pills with low-dose estrogen and antiandrogenic progestins can effectively treat acne.
research Controversies in plastic surgery: Suction-assisted lipectomy (SAL) and the hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) protocol for obesity treatment
The document concludes that the hCG protocol may help in obesity treatment and could be scientifically justified, but more research is needed.
research Secondary amenorrhea
Secondary amenorrhea has many causes and requires thorough evaluation to treat and restore menstrual cycles.
research Growth hormone deficiency with late-onset hypothalamic hypoadrenocorticism associated with respiratory and renal dysfunction: a case report
A woman with childhood growth hormone deficiency had multiple hormone deficiencies and developed serious lung and kidney problems later in life.
research Determining Cortisol in Animal Hair as a Marker of Chronic Stress
Hair cortisol can indicate animal stress but varies with many factors.
research Hair cortisol: an indicator of HPA activity in relation to environmental perception in New Zealand White rabbit.
Hair cortisol reliably indicates stress in rabbits.
research Generalised Glucocorticoid Resistance
Mutations in the glucocorticoid receptor gene cause reduced sensitivity to glucocorticoids and may lead to poor response to treatment.
research Corticotropin releasing hormone and the skin

Anorexia nervosa can harm fertility and increase pregnancy risks.
research Microglia: sculptors of the polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)-like brain?
Microglia, the brain's immune cells, may contribute to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) by altering the female brain's structure and function, with kisspeptin neurons and GABA neurotransmitters also playing a role.
research Bibliometric Study of Adaptogens in Dermatology: Pharmacophylogeny, Phytochemistry, and Pharmacological Mechanisms
Plant adaptogens may help treat skin diseases and improve skin health, but more research is needed to fully understand how they work.
research A review of hyperandrogenism state in polycystic ovarian syndrome
