570-600 / 1000+ resultsresearch Androstanediolglucuronide: A parameter for peripheral androgen activity before and during therapy with cyproterone acetate
3α-AdiolG is a good marker for androgen activity in women with excessive hair growth and decreases with anti-androgen treatment.
research Dihydrotestosterone and 5α-Reductase
Dihydrotestosterone and 5α-Reductase play a role in hair loss and prostate health, and finasteride can increase hair growth in men without affecting sperm production, but it doesn't work for postmenopausal women with hair loss.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research Finasteride/spironolactone
research [Hormones--underestimated problem in dermatology. Part I. Diseases connected with excessive androgenisation].
Hormones beyond androgens may cause acne and hair loss.
research The Mossman–Pacey Paradox
Men using steroids or finasteride to look more attractive may harm their fertility and sexual function, creating a paradox where they seem fit but may be less able to reproduce.
research Androgens and Anti-androgen Therapy
Antiandrogen therapy, like cyproterone acetate, effectively treats acne, hirsutism, and hair loss.
research ANABOLIC ANDROGENIC STEROID USE DISORDER: A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE
Anabolic steroid misuse is a major health issue causing severe health problems and requires better awareness and monitoring.
research Green and Emerging Microextraction Strategies for Bioanalytical Determination of Hormones: Trends, Challenges, and Applications
Microextraction techniques improve hormone testing while being environmentally friendly.
research 11-Oxyandrogens in Adolescents With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Girls with PCOS have higher levels of certain androgens, which are linked to excess hair growth, but these androgens don't help diagnose PCOS.
research Preoperative hormonal stimulation in hypospadias: a systematic review
Hormone treatment before hypospadias surgery can increase penis size and reduce surgery complications.
research [Favorable effects of estrogens and progesterones on general diseases].
Estrogens and progesterones can help manage various health issues.
research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Clinical and hormonal effects of the 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor finasteride in idiopathic hirsutism
research Dihydrotestosterone—a culprit in left ventricular hypertrophy
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) worsens heart enlargement, and blocking it may help prevent heart issues.
research Effect of finasteride on adrenal steroidogenesis in men.
Finasteride, when taken daily, lowers dihydrotestosterone levels but doesn't noticeably affect adrenal steroid production, except by blocking the 5 alpha-reductase enzyme.
research The biochemical and phenotypic characterization of females homozygous for 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency.
Females with 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency have less body hair, no acne, normal fertility, and delayed menarche.
research 013 Prostaglandin D2 enhances testosterone metabolism by ROS-mediated altered redox potential in keratinocytes
Prostaglandin D2 increases testosterone production in skin cells through a process involving reactive oxygen species, which could be a new target for treating hair loss and other skin conditions driven by testosterone.
research Consequences of Anabolic-Androgenic Steroid Abuse in Males; Sexual and Reproductive Perspective
Using anabolic-androgenic steroids can harm men's reproductive health and increase the risk of heart problems and death.
research 837 Characterization of cutaneous hormone production through analysis of skin secretions
Skin produces different hormones depending on body part and sex, and a new method can measure them.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with anti-androgen drug finasteride
The research helps understand how finasteride works and aids drug development.
research Rational Design of a Topical Androgen Receptor Antagonist for the Suppression of Sebum Production with Properties Suitable for Follicular Delivery
A new compound was created in 2010 that can control oil production when applied to the skin, and its effects are completely reversible after two weeks.
research Dihydrotestosterone induces p27 degradation via direct binding with SKP2 in ovarian and breast cancer
Dihydrotestosterone causes p27 protein breakdown in ovarian and breast cancer cells by binding with SKP2.
research ANTI‐ANDROGENS IN HIRSUTISM
Cyproterone acetate effectively treats hirsutism and related conditions.
research Thyroid receptor agonists for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
Thyroid receptor agonists may treat male pattern baldness without harmful side effects.
research Effects of two estroprogestins containing ethynilestradiol 30mug and drospirenone 3 mg and ethynilestradiol 30mug and chlormadinone 2 mg on skin and hormonal hyperandrogenic manifestations
Both birth control pills improved hormone levels and skin conditions in women with hyperandrogenism, but the one with drospirenone was more effective.
research Realising the therapeutic potential of neuroactive steroid modulators of the GABAA receptor
Neuroactive steroids show promise for treating mental and neurological disorders by targeting GABA_A receptors.
