research Environmental Factors and Puberty Timing: Expert Panel Research Needs
Chemicals and body size might change when puberty starts and progresses, but more research is needed to confirm this.
research Pharmacology of antiandrogens
Antiandrogens affect androgen-dependent body functions and are used for various medical conditions, with some risks like fetus feminization, but new forms like 17α-propylmesterolone show promise for acne without systemic effects.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research AN UPDATED OVERVIEW OF POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder in women that can cause infertility and other health issues, and it may be improved by treatments that increase insulin sensitivity.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Male infertility and genitourinary birth defects: there is more than meets the eye
Male infertility and genitourinary birth defects are often linked to genetic issues.

research Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles: Effects on Development and Male Reproductive System
Titanium dioxide nanoparticles may harm the male reproductive system.
research Regulation of masculinization: androgen signalling for external genitalia development
Male genital development is driven by androgen signaling and understanding it could help address congenital anomalies.
research Anorexia nervosa and reproduction: connecting brain to gonads
Anorexia nervosa can harm fertility and increase pregnancy risks.
research Anogenital distance as a biomarker for incomplete masculinization : Molecular mechanisms in the perineum
A short male anogenital distance may indicate incomplete masculinization due to disrupted androgen action.
research Endocrinology Overview RSS

research Geographical Differences in Male Infertility between the United States and Canada: Insights from the Andrology Research Consortium
American men are older, more obese, and have longer infertility than Canadian men.
research Androgen receptor–mediated inhibition of cutaneous wound healing
Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.
research Expression of Sex-Determining Genes in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Sex-determining genes may affect male baldness.
research Organizational Effects of Estrogens and Androgens on Estrogen and Androgen Receptor Expression in Pituitary and Adrenal Glands in Adult Male and Female Rats
Early hormones shape sex-specific differences in rat glands.
research 5α-Reductase underscores the development of pectoral fin breeding tubercles in zebrafish
The development of breeding tubercles in male zebrafish relies on a specific enzyme that processes hormones.
research The Androgen Excess and PCOS Society criteria for the polycystic ovary syndrome: the complete task force report
