Men with benign prostate hyperplasia have more meibomian gland loss and tear film problems.
research Plasma levels of C19 steroid glucuronides in pre-menopausal women with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Women with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia have higher levels of certain steroids, which can be reduced by treatment.
research Different synaptic stimulation patterns influence the local androgenic and estrogenic neurosteroid availability triggering hippocampal synaptic plasticity in the male rat
The availability of certain hormones and specific stimulation patterns affect long-term synaptic changes in the male rat brain.
research Finasteride Blocks the Reduction in Ictal Activity Produced by Exogenous Estrous Cyclicity

Exposure to low doses of finasteride in the womb causes changes in the prostate of both male and female gerbils.
research Serum androgens and prostate-specific antigen levels in androgenetic alopecia: is there a difference between frontal and vertex baldness?
Vertex baldness has higher DHT levels than frontal baldness, but testosterone and PSA levels are similar.
research COVID-19 and androgenic status: testosterone or dihydrotestosterone have a pivotal role?
Higher dihydrotestosterone may be linked to more inflammation in COVID-19 patients with low testosterone.
research 592 Cross-interactions of BMP and WNT signaling pathways attenuate androgen effect on HFSC differentiation

research 5-alpha reductase inhibitors: New evidences on benefits and harms beyond benign prostatic hyperplasia
5-alpha reductase inhibitors may have additional effects on cancer, mental health, heart health, and hormone levels beyond treating prostate enlargement.
research 5-alpha reductase inhibitors use in prostatic disease and beyond
5-alpha reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, are used for prostate issues, hair loss, and excessive hair growth, may help with COVID-19, but can cause sexual and mental health side effects, and their use in preventing prostate cancer needs more examination.
