research Minoxidil and male-pattern alopecia: a potential role for a local regulator of sebum secretion with vasoconstrictive effects?
Minoxidil, a common hair loss treatment, might work by counteracting a hormone that reduces hair growth and promotes hair loss.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Androgens and Anti-androgen Therapy
Antiandrogen therapy, like cyproterone acetate, effectively treats acne, hirsutism, and hair loss.

research The evolutionary impact of androgen levels on prostate cancer in a multi-scale mathematical model
Low androgen levels might delay prostate cancer but could lead to more aggressive, therapy-resistant cancers.
research Topical Antiandrogens
Topical antiandrogens might treat skin issues like hair growth, balding, and acne, but finding effective treatments without side effects is challenging.
research Development of a novel, clinically-relevant model for investigating factors that stimulate human hair growth
Testosterone stimulates growth in intermediate hair follicles, but this can be blocked by cyproterone acetate.
research 1 Androgens
Testosterone is made by Leydig cells, is active when not bound to proteins, and works by binding to receptors in muscles and other tissues.
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 A Virilizing Malignant Steroid Cell Tumor-Leydig Cell Subtype in a 24-Year-Old Palestinian Female with Challenging Histopathological and Biochemical Features: A Case Report
A 24-year-old woman had a rare ovarian tumor that caused male-pattern hair growth and was hard to diagnose and treat.
research Novel Systematics of Nomenclature and Classification of Female Functional Androgenization (Including Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia)
A new system helps better diagnose and treat female androgenization conditions like PCOS.
research Testosterone, 17 Ks, 17 beta E2 FSH-LH variations and hirsutism modifications during spironolactone therapy.
Spironolactone treatment reduced hair growth and androgen levels in hirsute women, but the overall effectiveness was just adequate.
research Role of 5α-reductase inhibitors in androgen-stimulated skin disorders.
5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride and dutasteride can help treat skin disorders stimulated by androgens, such as hair loss and acne.
research Endocrine evaluation of hirsutism
Hirsutism, excessive hair growth in women, is often caused by PCOS and can be managed with medication and personalized treatment plans.
research Maternal androgen excess inhibits fetal cardiomyocytes proliferation through RB-mediated cell cycle arrest and induces cardiac hypertrophy in adulthood
Excess maternal androgens can cause heart problems in offspring.
research Substantial Sex-Dependent Differences in the Response of Human Scalp Hair Follicles to Estrogen Stimulation In Vitro Advocate Gender-Tailored Management of Female Versus Male Pattern Balding
research Mechanism of action of androgen in hair follicles
Testosterone affects hair follicles differently across body sites, with beard hair follicles showing more activity of a specific enzyme and presence of androgen receptors compared to scalp hair.
research Dermatology Residency Education in Treatment of Testosterone-Induced Acne Vulgaris and Androgenic Alopecia in Transmasculine Individuals: A Cross-Sectional Survey of Academic Dermatologists
Dermatology trainees lack standardized guidelines and education for treating testosterone-induced skin conditions in transmasculine individuals.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Gender Minority Patients
AGA treatments like minoxidil and LLLLT are safe and effective for gender minority patients.
research Mechanisms that regulate androgen receptor transcriptional activity
DHT enhances androgen receptor activity more than testosterone, and MAGE-11 influences this activity through specific interactions.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
Male pattern baldness is mainly caused by genetics and hormones, treatable with minoxidil and finasteride.
research Hyperandrogenism: Acne and Hirsutism
Hyperandrogenism in women often causes acne and excess hair, treatable with personalized plans including weight loss, hair removal, and medications.
