research Intracrine androgen biosynthesis, metabolism and action revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Steroidogenesis inhibitors alter but do not eliminate androgen synthesis mechanisms during progression to castration-resistance in LNCaP prostate xenografts
Steroidogenesis inhibitors change but don't stop androgen production in prostate cancer.
research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research You cannot go bald without first, losing your hair: Telogen effluvium is a precursor to, prerequisite for and potentially an incitant to common baldness in men
Hair loss (telogen effluvium) happens before male pattern baldness.
research Female Androgenic Alopecia
Women with low SHBG levels and a high 3a-diol G to SHBG ratio are likely to experience female pattern baldness, possibly due to a slight excess of androgens affecting sensitive hair bulbs.
research Local synthesis and effect of sex steroids in human skin and the hair follicle and hormonal effects on the wound healing response
Local estrogen synthesis in skin may improve wound healing.
research Plasma levels of C19 steroid glucuronides in pre-menopausal women with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Women with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia have higher levels of certain steroids, which can be reduced by treatment.
research An unusual circulating steroid profile in a virilized postmenopausal woman
A 68-year-old woman developed male traits due to a tumor in her ovary, which was removed, returning her hormone levels to normal.
research Inflammation dynamically regulates steroid hormone metabolism and action within macrophages in rheumatoid arthritis
Inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis increases steroid activation in cells, reducing inflammation.
research Early androgenetic alopecia as a marker of insulin resistance
Early hair loss may indicate risk of insulin resistance.
research Relationship of androgens to female hirsutism and infertility.
High androgen levels often cause female hirsutism and infertility.
research Hormonal Parameters in Androgenetic Hair Loss in the Male
Men with male pattern hair loss have different levels of certain hormones compared to men without hair loss.
research Studies on neurosteroids XXIV. Determination of neuroactive androgens, androsterone and 5α‐androstane‐3α,17β‐diol, in rat brain and serum using liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
The methods accurately measured brain androgens, showing most 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol comes from outside the brain, while androsterone is both transported and made in the brain.
research Side gland of Suncus murinus as a new model of sebaceous gland: 5?-reductase, androgen receptor, and nuclear androgen content in male and female animals
The side gland of Suncus murinus is a good model for studying human sebaceous glands.
research Clinical and Biochemical Parameters of Androgen Action in Normal Healthy CaucasianVersusChinese Subjects
Caucasian men have more chest hair and higher levels of certain androgen products than Chinese men.
research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research Basics of androgen synthesis and action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Androgen Treatment in Women
Testosterone therapy can help postmenopausal women with low sexual desire but needs more safety research and should be used with estrogen therapy.
research Androstenedione
Androstenedione, a hormone supplement, doesn't improve muscle or performance and can cause harmful side effects.
research 25 years of ERβ: a personal journey
ERβ has potential in treating prostate cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, but human studies are needed before clinical use.
research Steroid sulfatase inhibitors
Steroid sulfatase inhibitors could potentially treat hormone-related disorders like certain cancers, hair loss, acne, and improve cognitive dysfunction.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is a rare inherited disease causing hormone imbalances, affecting growth, fertility, and heart health, diagnosed through blood tests and treated with medication and lifestyle changes.
research Nutrition and acne
Diet, especially dairy and high-sugar foods, can cause acne.
research Metabolic syndrome and skin: Psoriasis and beyond
Some skin conditions, like psoriasis and early-onset baldness, may indicate metabolic syndrome, and others are linked to diabetes risk and cardiovascular issues.
research Oral Contraceptives as Anti-Androgenic Treatment of Acne
Birth control pills can help reduce mild to moderate acne in women.

The rosemary-fenugreek serum is effective and safe for managing hair loss and promoting scalp health.
research PCOS in adolescents
PCOS in teens is hard to diagnose, linked to genetics and lifestyle, and managed with weight loss and medication.
research Biosynthesis of Dihydrotestosterone by a Pathway that Does Not Require Testosterone as an Intermediate in the SZ95 Sebaceous Gland Cell Line
Dihydrotestosterone can be made from dehydroepiandrosterone in skin cells without needing testosterone.
