Anabolic steroids and inflammation can disrupt androgen metabolism, potentially causing health issues.
research Revisiting hyper- and hypo-androgenism by tandem mass spectrometry
The document concludes that using LC-MS/MS for measuring androgens is more accurate than older methods, but it needs careful validation and standardized references to be most effective.
research Hyperandrogenism in a set of triplets with modification of clinical course by hyperthyroidism
Hyperthyroidism can hide signs of high androgen levels in females.
research Diagnosis of hyperandrogenism: clinical criteria
The document concludes that hirsutism is the main sign for diagnosing hyperandrogenism, which requires a detailed patient history and physical exam.
research Hospitalists for the NHS
Antiandrogen therapy may help treat hidradenitis suppurativa.
research The circulating dihydrotestosterone/testosterone ratio is increased by gut microbial 5α-reductase activity in females
research Hyperandrogenism: Acne and Hirsutism
Hyperandrogenism in women often causes acne and excess hair, treatable with lifestyle changes and medications.
research New Criteria for the Clinical Diagnosis of Hyperandrogenism in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and the Risk of Overdiagnosis
Using only hyperandrogenism to diagnose PCOS can lead to overdiagnosis.
research Relationship of androgens to female hirsutism and infertility.
High androgen levels often cause female hirsutism and infertility.
research 5α Reductase Deficiency—a Rare Cause of Ambiguous Genitalia and Gender Dysphoria
5α-reductase deficiency can cause ambiguous genitalia and gender dysphoria, treatable with testosterone.
research The role of androgens in hormone replacement therapy
Androgen therapy can help with symptoms like low libido in women, but more research is needed to understand its long-term safety and effects on health.
research ANTIANDROGEN THERAPY IN DERMATOLOGY
Antiandrogens can help treat skin conditions like acne and excessive hair in women when used carefully.
research Serum concentrations of dihydrotestosterone are associated with symptoms of hypogonadism in biochemically eugonadal men
Higher DHT levels are linked to fewer hypogonadism symptoms in men with normal testosterone levels.
research Influence of Genotype and Hyperandrogenism on Sexual Function in Women With Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Women with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia experience more sexual dysfunction and distress.
research Markers of peripheral androgen action in vivo and in vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.
research Syndromes of hyperandrogenism in women.
Hyperandrogenism in women can cause acne, hair growth, hair loss, irregular periods, and increase the risk of infertility and diabetes.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: an-androgen-dependent disorder
Hidradenitis suppurativa improves with antiandrogen therapy.
research Disorders in Male Sexual Differentiation Due to 5α-Reductase-2 Deficiency
5α-reductase-2 deficiency causes ambiguous genitalia at birth and affects male sexual development, but individuals often develop male characteristics at puberty.
research Safety aspects of androgen treatment with 5α-dihydrotestosterone
DHT is a strong androgen that may pose less risk to the prostate compared to testosterone.
research Clinical, ultrasound and hormonal markers of androgenicity in acne vulgaris
Acne severity is linked to higher levels of certain androgenic hormones, even when those levels are within the normal range.
research Disorders linked to insufficient androgen action in male children
Male children's genital development issues can be caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors affecting hormone action.
research Auswirkungen einer Hormonersatztherapie mit Testosteron auf Haut, Haare und Anhangsgebilde
Testosterone therapy can improve skin and hair in men with low testosterone but may cause skin irritation with certain treatments.
research A review of hyperandrogenism state in polycystic ovarian syndrome
Polycystic ovary syndrome causes high male hormone levels, leading to symptoms like excess hair, acne, and fertility problems.
research Clinical markers of androgenicity in acne vulgaris
Acne severity in women may not be linked to increased male hormone indicators like excess body hair, menstrual irregularities, or hair loss.
research Antiandrogens — Basic Concepts for Treatment
Antiandrogens can treat excess body hair and hair loss by blocking male hormones.
research Hyperandrogenic eumenorrheic NON-PCOS women versus women with PCOS after the GnRH-agonist stimulation test preceded by suppression of adrenal steroidogenesis with dexamethasone
PCOS women have more severe metabolic issues and higher androgen levels than hyperandrogenic women without PCOS.
research Synthesis and in Vitro Evaluation of 4-Substituted N-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-3-oxo-4-androstene-17.beta.-carboxamides as 5.alpha.-Reductase Inhibitors and Antiandrogens
The new compounds moderately block a specific enzyme and strongly counteract a male hormone, suggesting potential for treating certain male-related health conditions.
