Women with androgen excess, especially those with PCOS, have a much higher risk of heart disease and stroke.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome and the differential diagnosis of hyperandrogenism
The document concludes that careful evaluation is needed to diagnose PCOS correctly due to similar symptoms in other conditions, and accurate testosterone level measurement is crucial.
research Serum AMH levels in the differential diagnosis of hyperandrogenemic conditions
Blood AMH levels are higher in women with PCOS than in those with other similar conditions.
research May AMH levels distinguish LOCAH from PCOS among hirsute women?
AMH levels can't reliably tell the difference between LOCAH and all types of PCOS in women with excessive hair growth.
research Mister XX
Most 46XX CAH patients have female identity, but a few identify as male and may need treatment and surgery.
research Diagnostic Criteria for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
To diagnose Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, two out of three signs—irregular periods, high male hormone levels, or cysts on the ovaries—are needed.
research Hormone therapy in acne
Hormonal treatment is effective for women with acne not helped by usual treatments, especially if they have hormonal imbalances.
research Structure and Expression of a New Complementary DNA Encoding the almost Exclusive 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase/Δ5-Δ4-lsomerase in Human Adrenals and Gonads
Human adrenals and gonads have a unique enzyme for steroid hormone production.
research Female Pseudohermaphroditism Caused by a Novel Homozygous Missense Mutation of the GR Gene
A new gene mutation causes female pseudohermaphroditism due to glucocorticoid resistance.
research Hirsutism: Diagnosis and management
The conclusion is that hirsutism should be diagnosed and treated because it affects quality of life and may signal other health problems.
research What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?
Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.
research Genetic Defects of Female Sexual Differentiation
Genetic mutations can affect female sexual development, requiring personalized medical care.
research The Androgen Excess and PCOS Society criteria for the polycystic ovary syndrome: the complete task force report
The report concludes that PCOS is mainly a condition of excess male hormones and its definition may change as new information is discovered.
research Androgens and Hirsutism in a Large Cohort of Portuguese Women
PCOS is the most common cause of hirsutism, and personalized treatment is important.
research Rare and Underappreciated Causes of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Some lesser-known causes of PCOS include autoimmune issues, genetic mutations, and changes in the body's microbiome.
research Hyperandrogenism: Acne and Hirsutism
Personalized treatment is crucial for women with hyperandrogenism-related acne and hirsutism.
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.
research Hyperandrogenism: Acne and Hirsutism
Hyperandrogenism in women often causes acne and excess hair, treatable with lifestyle changes and medications.
research Hyperandrogenism: Acne and Hirsutism
Hyperandrogenism, often causing excessive hair growth and acne, can be treated with methods like weight reduction, hair removal, various medications, and in the case of acne, topical treatments.
research An unusual circulating steroid profile in a virilized postmenopausal woman
A 68-year-old woman developed male traits due to a tumor in her ovary, which was removed, returning her hormone levels to normal.
research Practical approaches to the use of markers of biochemical hyperandrogenism in women
Accurate diagnosis and treatment of hyperandrogenism in women require comprehensive evaluation of symptoms and hormone levels.
research Difficult and rare forms of acne
The document talks about hard-to-treat and rare acne types, their connection with other health issues, the importance of correct diagnosis, and the challenges in managing them.
