Traditional Chinese Medicine may help treat hair loss but needs more research.
research Menopausal Androgen Excess - Associated Cardio-Metabolic Risk: Clues for Ovarian Leydig Cell Tumour (Case Report and Mini-Review of Literature)
High androgen levels in postmenopausal women may suggest an ovarian tumor, and removing it can improve heart and metabolic health.
research Hormonal Profile of Men with Premature Balding
Men with early balding often have hormone levels similar to women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Androgens in postmenopausal women
Testosterone in older women can increase bone density, muscle mass, fat mass, improve memory, and boost libido, but may cause nipple color changes.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome patients with high BMI tend to have functional disorders of androgen excess: a prospective study
Overweight women with PCOS are more likely to have excess male hormones.
research Effects of Low-Dose Spironolactone Combined with Metformin or Either Drug Alone on Insulin Resistance in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Pilot Study
Combining spironolactone with metformin reduces insulin resistance in PCOS better than either drug alone.

Plum blossom needle acupuncture with qi-invigorating therapy is more effective for Seborrheic Alopecia than Western medicine.
research Advances in hair growth
The best long-lasting results in treating hair loss may be achieved through combination therapy, including treatments like finasteride, minoxidil, and platelet-rich plasma injections.
research Dose–Response Effects of Oral Melatonin on Reproductive Parameters in Intact Male Pomeranian Dogs With Alopecia X: A Controlled Study
Melatonin improved reproductive function in male Pomeranian dogs with Alopecia X, but more research is needed.
research The Possible Role of Prescribing Medications, Including Central Nervous System Drugs, in Contributing to Male-Factor Infertility (MFI): Assessment of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Pharmacovigilance Database
Some medications might contribute to male infertility, with finasteride showing a high number of reports.
research Late bedtime was associated with increased androgen and reduced lean mass in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a cross-sectional study
Going to bed late may increase hormones and decrease muscle in women with PCOS.
research Steroid Sulfatase Deficiency and Androgen Activation Before and After Puberty
In STSD patients, the body compensates for low androgen levels by increasing another enzyme's activity.
research Gender Differences in the Regulation of Blood Pressure
Men generally have higher blood pressure than premenopausal women, but postmenopausal women's blood pressure can surpass men's, and hormone therapy doesn't significantly help.
research Current issues on the genetic implications and treatment of androgenic alopecia
Hair loss is linked to heart disease and metabolic syndrome, and while current treatments vary in effectiveness, more research is needed for better solutions.
research Testosterone-like immunoreactivity in hair measured in minute sample amounts - a competitive radioimmunoassay with an adequate limit of detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research Safety of testosterone treatment in postmenopausal women
Testosterone therapy seems safe for postmenopausal women for a few years, but more research is needed for long-term effects.
research Higher plasma leptin is associated with higher risk of androgenetic alopecia in men
More plasma leptin means higher baldness risk in men.
research Finasteride, not tamsulosin, increases severity of erectile dysfunction and decreases testosterone levels in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia
Finasteride worsens erectile dysfunction and lowers testosterone in men with enlarged prostates, unlike tamsulosin.
