Testosterone patches can modestly improve sexual function in postmenopausal women not on estrogen therapy.
research Editorial: Mechanisms and novel treatments of muscle wasting
High-dose testosterone with finasteride improves muscle health in males with spinal cord injury.
research Intratesticular Control Of Steroidogenesis
The testes control steroid production through complex interactions involving various cells and signaling molecules.
research Androgen Treatment in Women
Testosterone therapy can help postmenopausal women with low sexual desire but needs more safety research and should be used with estrogen therapy.
research Mesotherapy with bicalutamide: A new treatment for androgenetic alopecia
Bicalutamide mesotherapy may help with hair loss and seborrhea but needs more research.
research Intracrine Testosterone Activation in Human Pancreatic β-Cells Stimulates Insulin Secretion
Testosterone helps human pancreatic cells increase insulin release.
research Comparative evaluation of Intralesional Triamcinolone Acetonide Injection, narrow band Ultraviolet B, and their combination in Alopecia Areata
Intralesional steroids are more effective for hair regrowth in alopecia areata than NBUVB, but combining them doesn't improve results.
research Mesotherapy with dutasteride in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
research Microbotox injection versus its topical application following microneedling in the treatment of wide facial pores: A split face comparative study
Intradermal microbotox injections work better and last longer for reducing large facial pores than topical application.
research Exogenous Testosterone or Testosterone with Finasteride Increases Bone Mineral Density in Older Men with Low Serum Testosterone
Testosterone therapy increases bone density in older men with low testosterone levels.
research Dutasteride infusion in male androgenetic alopecia using a novel drug delivery technique: MMP®
Dutasteride microinfusion and microneedling both effectively treat male hair loss.
research Mesotherapy
Mesotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment with potential benefits and risks, requiring standardized practices and further investigation.
research Delayed hypersensitivity reaction to intralesional triamcinolone acetonide following treatment for alopecia areata. Intradermal testing.
Intradermal testing can better detect corticosteroid allergies than patch testing.
research Androgen Treatment in Women
Testosterone therapy can help with androgen deficiency in women but should be used with caution and monitoring due to potential risks.
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 A Phase II Study of Vaginal Testosterone Cream (TEST) vs. Estring for Vaginal Dryness or Decreased Libido in Women with Early Stage Breast Cancer (BC) Treated with Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs).
Both vaginal testosterone cream and Estring effectively manage vaginal dryness in women with early-stage breast cancer on aromatase inhibitors.
research Spontaneous fertility in a male patient with testotoxicosis despite suppression of FSH levels
A man with testotoxicosis was fertile despite low FSH levels, suggesting high testosterone may allow sperm production without FSH.
