research The effects of finasteride (Proscar) on hair growth, hair cycle stage, and serum testosterone and dihydrotestosterone in adult male and female stumptail macaques (Macaca arctoides).
Finasteride increases hair growth, prolongs hair cycle, and lowers dihydrotestosterone levels.
research Effect of MK-386, a novel inhibitor of type 1 5 alpha-reductase, alone and in combination with finasteride, on serum dihydrotestosterone concentrations in men.
MK-386 and finasteride together effectively reduce DHT levels, potentially treating acne and male pattern baldness.
research Glioblastoma cells express crucial enzymes involved in androgen synthesis: 3β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 17‐20α‐hydroxylase, 17β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 5α‐reductase
Glioblastoma cells can make androgens, which might help the tumor grow.
research Sequential estrogen-progestin addition to gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist suppression for the chronic treatment of ovarian hyperandrogenism: a pilot study.
The treatment effectively reduced hair growth and was safe for patients with PCOS, but it needs better bleeding control.
research Basics of androgen synthesis and action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Ornithine decarboxylase is upregulated by the androgen receptor in skeletal muscle and regulates myoblast proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
research Anabolic effects of testosterone are preserved during inhibition of 5α-reductase
Testosterone can build muscle and bone without enlarging the prostate when a specific enzyme is blocked.
research Presence of hyperandrogenemia in cases evaluated due to menstrual irregularity, the effect of clinical and/or biochemical hyperandrogenemia on polycystic ovary syndrome
Elevated testosterone, DHEA-S, and FAI help identify PCOS risk in menstrual irregularities.
research Evaluation and Treatment of Hirsutism in Premenopausal Women: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline

Some children in Malaysia with symptoms have either profound or partial biotinidase deficiency, and early testing and treatment are important.
research Evaluation of Serum Testosterone, Cholesterol and Plasma Glucose Concentrations in Hirsute Women in Bayelsa State
Hirsute women have higher testosterone, cholesterol, and glucose levels.
research Marked Suppression of Dihydrotestosterone in Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia by Dutasteride, a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Dutasteride more effectively lowers DHT levels in men with enlarged prostates than finasteride.
research Follistatin promotes LIN28B-mediated supporting cell reprogramming and hair cell regeneration in the murine cochlea
Follistatin and LIN28B together improve the ability of inner ear cells in mice to regenerate into hearing cells.
research The ‘bald’ phenotype (androgenetic alopecia) is caused by the high glycaemic, high cholesterol and low mineral ‘western diet’
Western diet may cause male pattern baldness; low glycemic diet with magnesium could help.
research Diabetes and Skin — A Review
