research Supplementary data: Treatment of androgenetic alopecia with sublingual minoxidil in transgender people receiving testosterone
research A comparative study of a gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist and finasteride on idiopathic hirsutism.
Both finasteride and GnRH agonist treatments reduced hair growth in women with idiopathic hirsutism, but GnRH agonist was more effective.
research DHT and E2 synthesis-related proteins and receptors expression in male yak skin during different hair follicle stages
Male yak hair growth is influenced by DHT synthesis, which is promoted by 5α-red1 and AR during growth phases, while E2 may inhibit growth through ERα.
research The effect of spironolactone on genital skin 5α-reductase activity
Spironolactone reduces the enzyme activity that converts testosterone to DHT, helping treat excessive hair growth in women.
research The dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hypothesis of prostate cancer and its therapeutic implications
The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.
research P6590Androgenic effects on ventricular repolarization: a translational study from pharmacovigilance databases to iPSC-cardiomyocytes
Androgen-deprivation therapies increase the risk of certain heart conditions, but testosterone treatment may help.
research 1407 ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA, PROSTATE VOLUME AND URINARY SYMPTOMS. IS THERE A RELATIONSHIP? A CASE-CONTROL STUDY
