research Androgenic alopecia: A counterproductive outcome of the anabolic effect of androgens
Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.
research Selective induction of apoptosis in the hamster flank sebaceous gland organ by a topical liposome 5-α-reductase inhibitor: A treatment strategy for acne
A topical treatment safely and effectively reduced acne by causing targeted cell death in sebaceous glands without side effects.
research Effect of phlebotomy versus oral contraceptives containing cyproterone acetate on the clinical and biochemical parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a randomized controlled trial
Blood removal and birth control pills both helped with hormone levels in women with PCOS, but birth control was better for regular periods and blood removal had fewer side effects.
research Environment of the Anagen Follicle
The document concludes that hair follicles have a complex environment and our understanding of it is growing, but there are limitations when applying animal study findings to humans.
research Bad Hair Day: Testosterone and Wnts
Testosterone can both promote hair growth and cause baldness by affecting hair growth signals.
research Transcriptome analysis to identify the downstream genes of androgen receptor in dermal papilla cells
The study found that androgen receptors in skin cells mainly affect the focal adhesion pathway and control the caveolin-1 gene, with implications for new treatments for related diseases.
research Physiology of Male Gonadotropic Axis and Disorders of Sex Development
Understanding genes and hormones is crucial for managing male puberty and sex development disorders.
research Wirkung von Testosteron auf Haut und Haare
Testosterone affects skin by increasing oil production and influences hair growth.
research The effects of oestrogens on linear bone growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
research Treatment of female pattern hair loss with oral antiandrogens
Oral antiandrogens effectively treat female hair loss, with better results in higher hair loss grades.
research Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome in Adolescents
PCOS in teens causes hormonal imbalances, irregular periods, and can lead to infertility and other health issues.
research Association of AR rs6152G/A gene polymorphism with susceptibility to polycystic ovary syndrome in Chinese women
A certain gene variant may increase the risk of polycystic ovary syndrome in Chinese women.
research Inhibitors of 5α-reductase-related side effects in patients seeking medical care for sexual dysfunction.
5α-reductase inhibitors may worsen sexual drive and spontaneous erections but don't worsen existing erectile or ejaculatory problems.
research Male Equivalent Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: Hormonal, Metabolic, and Clinical Aspects.
Men with hormonal imbalances similar to PCOS may have increased risk of metabolic and heart diseases.
research Indirect clinical markers for the detection of anabolic steroid abuse beyond the conventional doping control in athletes
New signs like changes in blood markers, physical symptoms, and behavioral shifts may help detect hidden steroid use in athletes.
research Genetic variants in AR and SHBG and resistance to hormonal castration in prostate cancer
Certain genetic variants increase the risk of resistance to hormone therapy in prostate cancer patients.
research Anti-androgen therapy in dermatology: a review
Anti-androgens are effective for female acne but less so for male-pattern hair loss, with side effects similar to birth control pills.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research Alopecia universalis and Kallman’s Syndrome
A woman with Kallman's syndrome also developed alopecia universalis, a condition not previously linked to Kallman's.
research HORMONAL STATUS IN POSTMENOPAUSAL ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
No significant hormone differences found in postmenopausal women with androgenetic alopecia.
research Psychophysiological Mechanisms of Stress Impact on Hair Loss Processes
Stress causes hair loss by disrupting hair growth cycles, and combining medical and cosmetic treatments can help manage it.
research Characterization of Rickets Type II Model Rats to Reveal Functions of Vitamin D and Vitamin D Receptor
The research showed that Vitamin D and its receptor are important for healthy bones and normal hair and skin in rats.
research Polymorphisms in Genes Involved in Steroidogenesis in the Development of Severe Acne
Certain gene variations are linked to a higher risk of severe acne, suggesting a genetic influence on the condition.
research Testosterone’s regulation of the HPA axis differs for adolescent and adult male rats
Adolescent male rats release more stress hormones than adults, and testosterone affects them differently.
