Using stem cells from hair follicles to treat female hair loss is safe and effective after six months.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
New understanding of hair loss could lead to better treatments.
research Prevalence and Predictors of Impaired Glucose Tolerance and Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Many women with polycystic ovary syndrome have normal blood sugar, but some may have higher blood sugar levels or diabetes, especially if they are older, overweight, and have certain hormone levels.
research Relation Between Non-Alcoholic Fatty Pancreas and Clinical and Biochemical Parameters in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Multi-Centric Study
Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome are more likely to have Non-Alcoholic Fatty Pancreas Disease, which is associated with older age, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and high male hormone levels.
research Acanthosis nigricans, insulin resistance and cutaneous virilism
Patients with acanthosis nigricans often have insulin resistance and signs of increased male hormones, but treatment targeting these male hormones is generally ineffective.
research Establishing and Verifying a Robust Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry Method to Simultaneously Measure Seven Androgens Present in Plasma Samples
The method accurately measures seven androgens in plasma and shows different hormone levels in females with acne and obesity.
research Recent Advances in Understanding of the Etiopathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Management of Hair Loss Diseases
New understanding and treatments for hair loss are improving, but more research is needed.
research Expression Profiles of Reproduction- and Thyroid Hormone-Related Transcripts in the Brains of Chemically-Induced Intersex Frogs
Intersex frogs have different brain gene activity related to sex and thyroid hormones.
research Sex Differences in Opioid-Mediated Effects: Role of Androgens
Men and women react differently to opioids, with hormones potentially influencing these differences.
research Adrenal steroid hormone concentrations in dogs with hair cycle arrest (Alopecia X) before and during treatment with melatonin and mitotane
Melatonin and mitotane treatment led to hair re-growth in 62% of dogs with Alopecia X, but this was not always linked to normal hormone levels.
research Hormone Treatment for the Adult Transgender Patient
Hormone therapy is safe and effective for transgender adults, but requires regular monitoring and mental health support.
research Human scalp hair: Modulation by various factors and hormones do estrogens inhibit or stimulate—A perplexing perspective
The effects of estrogen on human scalp hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Clinical symptoms and sex steroid measurements in domestic ferrets (Mustela putorius furo) with hyperadrenocorticism
Neutered ferrets often develop hyperadrenocorticism, with symptoms like hair loss and lethargy, and androstenedione is a key indicator for diagnosis.
research Roles of steroid receptors in the lung and COVID-19
Sex hormones may influence COVID-19 severity, with males at higher risk, and certain hormone therapies could potentially treat the virus.
research Early androgen activity after birth determines the hypothalamic expression of androgen and estrogen receptors in adulthood in female but not in male rats
Early androgen exposure affects hormone receptor expression in adult female rats' brains, but not in males.
research The anti-androgen combination, flutamide plus finasteride, paradoxically suppressed LH and androgen concentrations in pregnant spotted hyenas, but not in males
