5α-reductase inhibitors can interfere with doping tests by masking banned substances.
research Chronic prostatitis and chronic pelvic pain in men: aetiology, diagnosis and management1
Chronic pelvic pain in men is common, but its cause is unknown and treatments are often ineffective.
research LY191704: a selective, nonsteroidal inhibitor of human steroid 5 alpha-reductase type 1.
LY191704 is a compound that effectively blocks a specific enzyme involved in hormone conversion and could help treat enlarged prostate and hair loss.
research Changes in Progesterone Metabolites in the Hippocampus Can Modulate Open Field and Forced Swim Test Behavior of Proestrous Rats
Lowering 3α,5α-THP in the hippocampus increases anxiety and depression in proestrous rats.
research A new look at an old option in the treatment of early-stage prostate cancer: hormone therapy as an alternative to watchful waiting
Hormone therapy might be a proactive alternative to watchful waiting for early-stage prostate cancer, potentially improving survival without aggressive treatment downsides.
research Estrogen and androgen signaling in the pathogenesis of BPH
Hormonal interactions, especially involving DHT and estrogen, play a key role in BPH development and treatment.
research Molecular interactions of progesterone derivatives with 5α-reductase types 1 and 2 and androgen receptors

research International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health Clinical Practice Guideline for the Use of Systemic Testosterone for Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder in Women
Testosterone can help premenopausal and postmenopausal women with low sexual desire, but its long-term safety is unclear and it's not widely approved for this use.
research Tamsulosin versus finasteride: effect on bother and urinary flow
Tamsulosin works faster, but both drugs have similar effects after 6 months.
research Proscar and Propecia—A Therapeutic Perspective
research Progesterone-induced stimulation of mammary tumorigenesis is due to the progesterone metabolite, 5α-dihydroprogesterone (5αP) and can be suppressed by the 5α-reductase inhibitor, finasteride
Progesterone byproduct 5αP stimulates mammary tumor growth, but finasteride can suppress it.
