research Polycystic ovary syndrome
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition in women that can cause metabolic, reproductive, and psychological issues, and requires lifestyle changes and medication for management.
research Effects of Finasteride (MK-906), a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, on Circulating Androgens in Male Volunteers*
Finasteride safely lowers DHT levels without affecting testosterone.
research The pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome: trying to understand PCOS and its endocrinology
The conclusion is that PCOS is caused by ovarian sensitivity to hormones and disrupted hormone control, possibly due to ovarian factors, and more research is needed.
research Prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome in unselected women from southern China
Many women in southern China have polycystic ovary syndrome, with some symptoms differing from Western women.
research Polymorphisms of the Androgen Receptor Gene and the Estrogen Receptor β Gene Are Associated with Androgen Levels in Women1
Certain genetic variations in the AR and ERβ genes can affect androgen levels in women.
research Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist therapy for hirsutism is as effective as high dose cyproterone acetate but results in a longer remission
Hormone therapy for excessive hair growth is as good with GnRHa as with high-dose CPA, but GnRHa has longer-lasting results.
research Ketoconazole Therapy for Women with Acne and/or Hirsutism
Ketoconazole reduced hair growth and improved acne in women, but caused side effects needing careful monitoring.
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 Anti-Müllerian hormone confirms the novel classification of female functional androgenization including polycystic ovary syndrome
Anti-Müllerian hormone is a specific marker for ovarian issues in women with conditions like PCOS.
research Evaluating Testosterone and Dehydroepiandrosterone Sulfate (DHEA-S) as Biomarkers for Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Higher testosterone and DHEA-S levels may be linked to male pattern baldness.
research The role of glypican-4, thyroid stimulating hormone, and reproductive hormones in polycystic ovary syndrome progress among Iraqi women
Glypican-4 may help indicate insulin sensitivity and lipid issues in women with PCOS.
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 efficacy of an adjuvant norethisterone (jenapharm) therapy in endometrial cancer
Norethisterone (jenapharm) therapy is effective for endometrial cancer.
research Cystine-thiamin-containing hair-growth formulation modulates the response to UV radiation in an in vitro model for growth-limiting conditions of human keratinocytes
A hair-growth formula with cystine and thiamin helps protect skin cells against UV damage and improves their growth.
research Dependence of anxiolytic effects of the dipeptide TSPO ligand GD-23 on neurosteroid biosynthesis
GD-23 reduces anxiety by relying on neurosteroid production.
research Permanent chemotherapy-induced nonscarring alopecia and premature ovarian failure
Chemotherapy caused a woman's permanent hair loss and early menopause.
research Effects of Laparoscopic Ovarian Drilling on Restoration of Menstrual Cycles, Hormonal Profiles and Pregnancy Rate in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Laparoscopic ovarian drilling improves menstrual cycles, hormone levels, and pregnancy rates in women with PCOS.
research Prostate-Sparing Effects in Primates of the Potent Androgen 7α-Methyl-19-Nortestosterone: A Potential Alternative to Testosterone for Androgen Replacement and Male Contraception1
MENT could be a better option than testosterone for male hormone therapy and birth control because it works well at lower doses and has fewer side effects on the prostate.
research Steroid Sulfatase: Molecular Biology, Regulation, and Inhibition
The enzyme steroid sulfatase is linked to breast cancer and other conditions, and inhibitors are being developed for treatment.
research Developmental origin of polycystic ovary syndrome - a hypothesis
The hypothesis suggests that PCOS may start early in life due to genetic and environmental factors, influencing future reproductive and metabolic problems.
research Female pattern hair loss
Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.
