Certain medications, especially 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, are commonly linked to erectile dysfunction.
research Evaluation of intralesional injection of platelet derived growth factors PDGF ma in patients with Peyronie's disease
LGF injections may improve early Peyronie's disease by reducing penile curvature and plaque size.
research The effect of cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) inhibitor, on human hair growth with the dual promoting mechanisms
Cilostazol helps hair grow by making hair root cells grow faster and changing growth factor levels.
research Abstract 5561: 20(S)-Protopanaxadiol-aglycone downregulates full-length and ligand-independent splice variants of androgen receptor
20(S)-Protopanaxadiol-aglycone may help prevent and treat prostate cancer by reducing androgen receptor activity.
