480-510 / 1000+ resultsresearch [Antiandrogen therapy of acne, falling hair and hirsutism (author's transl)].
Cyproterone acetate is an effective treatment for women with acne, hair loss, and excessive hair growth.
research Effects of minoxidil 2% vs. cyproterone acetate treatment on female androgenetic alopecia: a controlled, 12-month randomized trial
Minoxidil works better for female hair loss, but cyproterone reduces scalp oiliness and causes menstrual issues.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone for women in the peri- or postmenopausal phase
DHEA may help with sexual function when used intravaginally by menopausal women but is similar to hormone therapy in other aspects and might cause more side effects like acne and hair loss.
research A 5α-reductase inhibitor, finasteride, increases differentiation and proliferation of embryonal carcinoma cell-derived-neural cells
research Regulation of the metabolic phenotype of human hepatocytes by glucocorticoids and androgens
Glucocorticoids reduce fat production in liver cells, while androgens increase it in females; manipulating certain enzymes can influence these effects.
research Effects of Sex Steroid Deprivation/Administration on Hair Growth and Skin Sebum Production in Transsexual Males and Females
Hormone treatments in transsexual individuals reduce hair growth and oil production in male-to-females and increase them in female-to-males.
research Keyora Integrated Nutritional Modulation of the Redox–NO–Androgen Axis in Male Endocrine, Reproductive, and Metabolic Disorders
Nutritional interventions can help restore balance in male health by targeting oxidative stress and hormonal issues.
research Clinical study of combined prednisone with minoxidil in treatment of the androgenetic alopecia
Using prednisone, zinc, and minoxidil together effectively treats hair loss with long-term benefits and is safe to use.
research Scalp hair 17‐hydroxyprogesterone and androstenedione as a long‐term therapy monitoring tool in congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Scalp hair 17-OHP and androstenedione levels can help monitor treatment in CAH patients.
research Health benefits attributed to 17α-estradiol, a lifespan-extending compound, are mediated through estrogen receptor α
17α-estradiol extends lifespan and improves metabolism in male mice through the estrogen receptor α.
research Recent Advances in the Chemistry and Pharmacological Activity of New Steroidal Antiandrogens and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New compounds show promise for treating hair loss, enlarged prostate, and prostate cancer, with some being more effective and having different side effects than current treatments.
research Discovery of Nonsteroidal Androgens
Scientists found new nonsteroidal compounds that can act like natural male hormones and might help treat male fertility and hormone issues.
research Untargeted Metabolomics and Steroid Signatures in Urine of Male Pattern Baldness Patients after Finasteride Treatment for a Year
Finasteride treatment changes urine metabolomics and steroid signatures, potentially monitoring effectiveness but may cause sexual side effects.
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 [Systematic treatment with sex hormones in dermatology].
Sex hormone therapy is effective for certain skin conditions like acne and seborrhea, but less so for female hair loss and excessive hair growth.
research 5-Alpha reductase deficiency
5-alpha reductase deficiency leads to male sexual development issues and treatments like finasteride help with prostate enlargement and hair loss.
research Steroid Cell Tumor Without Virilization
A rare ovarian tumor can occur without causing male-like symptoms.
research A novel actor in skin biology: the mineralocorticoid receptor
Blocking the mineralocorticoid receptor can help treat skin thinning caused by steroids.
research Novel C-6 substituted and unsubstituted pregnane derivatives as 5α-reductase inhibitors and their effect on hamster flank organs diameter size
Certain compounds reduced hamster flank organ size by inhibiting 5α-reductase, like finasteride, without affecting androgen receptors.
research Crystal structure of Steroid 5-alpha-reductase 2 in complex with Finasteride
research Involvement of neurosteroids in the control of prolactin secretion in sheep under basal, stressful and pregnancy conditions
Neurosteroids affect prolactin levels in sheep differently depending on stress and pregnancy conditions.
research Local synthesis and effect of sex steroids in human skin and the hair follicle and hormonal effects on the wound healing response
Local estrogen synthesis in skin may improve wound healing.
research EFFECT OF LOW DOSE FINASTERIDE ON SEMEN VOLUME AND SPERM DENSITY IN YOUNG MEN
research Exclusive androgenic effect of dehydroepiandrosterone in sebaceous glands of rat skin
DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.
research Wider clinical applications of fumaric acid esters: A useful option in psoriasis patients with multiple sclerosis
Finasteride for hair loss in young men may significantly increase the risk of sexual dysfunction.
research Corrigendum to “Patients treated for male pattern hair loss with finasteride show, after discontinuation of the drug, altered levels of neuroactive steroids in cerebrospinal fluid and plasma” [J. Steroid Biochem. Mol. Biol. 146 (2015) 74–79]
Stopping finasteride for male pattern hair loss changes neuroactive steroid levels in the brain and blood.
research The role of 5-α-reductase inhibition in supressing progression of male androgenetic alopecia − a postulate for further studies on possible application of saw palmetto extracts
Saw palmetto extracts might help treat male hair loss and need more research.
research (192) Evaluating Effect of hCG and hCG+rFSH Therapy on Ejaculation Disorders in Middle-Aged Men: A Case Study
The therapies improved ejaculation disorders and sexual function in middle-aged men.
research ANTIANDROGENS AND THE SKIN
Antiandrogens can treat acne, hirsutism, and seborrhea by reducing sebum production and androgen action.
