Scientists at the University of Michigan Medical School successfully created a special compound that can be used to improve imaging of prostate cancer.

Selective androgen receptor modulators (SARMs) are a promising type of drug for various health conditions due to their targeted actions.

Scientists found new nonsteroidal compounds that can act like natural male hormones and might help treat male fertility and hormone issues.

New nonsteroidal molecules can potentially increase dihydrotestosterone in neurons by blocking certain enzymes, without affecting prostate and seminal vesicle weight.

Cernitin™, a pollen extract, was found to significantly reduce pain and inflammation in rats with chronic prostatitis, suggesting it could be a useful alternative to certain anti-inflammatory drugs.

Compounds from the Sansevieria trifasciata plant might be effective for treating hair loss.

RU58841, a substance from France, can potentially block the effects of hormones that cause hair loss and excessive hair growth, performing better than a similar substance, cyproterone acetate.

Flutamide treatment showed no significant changes in mice vaginal mucosa.

Certain derivatives are more effective 5α-reductase type 2 inhibitors than finasteride.

Different types of androgens bind differently to two receptors, AR1 and AR2, in Atlantic croaker's brain and ovarian tissues, suggesting these receptors may control different androgen actions in fish.

PF-05314882 selectively activates androgen receptors without much effect on prostate and may help in prostate cancer treatment and hair loss prevention.

Male rats have androgen receptors in their liver, which are different from proteins that bind estrogen.

The nature of the side chain in RU 58841 derivatives greatly affects its AR affinity, with the N-(iodopropenyl) derivative 13 showing the highest AR binding affinity, suggesting its potential for developing high-affinity radioiodinated AR radioligands.

Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.

Enobosarm significantly increased muscle mass and improved physical function in elderly men and postmenopausal women without serious side effects.

GTx-024 and Danazol affect the uterus like DHT, while GTx-007 has little impact.

A 12-year-old boy with PAIS successfully developed male characteristics using high-dose testosterone and anastrozole.

RU58841 significantly increases hair growth rate and initiates more hair cycles, but doesn't affect hair thickness, suggesting it could be a new treatment for baldness.

Men's sensitivity to male hormones might affect how severe COVID-19 gets for them.

Anti-androgens are effective for female acne but less so for male-pattern hair loss, with side effects similar to birth control pills.

Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.

Two enzymes regulate androgen receptor activity, affecting treatments for androgen insufficiency and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Certain progesterone derivatives can inhibit enzymes and reduce androgenic activity, potentially affecting prostate growth.

Nandrolone and oxandrolone could help treat male health issues like muscle loss and low testosterone.
