60-90 / 1000+ results research Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) trilogy: a translational and clinical review
The document concludes that more multidisciplinary research is needed to understand and treat PCOS, a condition that significantly affects women's health and quality of life.
research Menopause
The document concludes that individualized treatment and lifestyle changes are important for managing menopause symptoms and health risks.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome
PCOS is a condition causing irregular periods, excess male hormones, and infertility, often managed by targeting insulin resistance and specific symptoms.
research Interventional studies for polycystic ovarian syndrome in children and adolescents
Early treatment and lifestyle changes are important for managing PCOS in young people to prevent long-term health issues.
research The role of androgen and androgen receptor in skin-related disorders
Targeting androgen receptors could be a promising way to treat skin disorders with fewer side effects.
research The anti-androgen combination, flutamide plus finasteride, paradoxically suppressed LH and androgen concentrations in pregnant spotted hyenas, but not in males
Flutamide and finasteride reduced sex hormones in pregnant hyenas, but increased them in males.
research Maternal androgen excess induces cardiac hypertrophy and left ventricular dysfunction in female mice offspring
High levels of male hormones in pregnant mice cause heart enlargement and poor heart function in their female babies.
research Polycystic ovarian syndrome
PCOS is a common hormonal disorder in women that can lead to serious health problems.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss and Androgen Excess: A Report From the Multidisciplinary Androgen Excess and PCOS Committee

Experts recommend using evidence-based methods to diagnose and treat hirsutism, focusing on symptoms and underlying causes.
research Androgen antagonists in androgen target tissues
Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues.

Women with androgen excess, especially those with PCOS, have a much higher risk of heart disease and stroke.
research Androgens and human hair growth
Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.
research Inhibition of the Androgen Receptor by Antisense Oligonucleotides Regulates the Biological Activity of Androgens in SZ95 Sebocytes
Blocking the androgen receptor in skin cells reduces their growth response to male hormones, suggesting a possible treatment for skin conditions linked to androgens.
