research Male reproductive health after 3 months from SARS-CoV-2 infection: a multicentric study
COVID-19 temporarily affects male reproductive health, but sperm and testosterone levels generally return to normal after three months.
research Androgen Signaling in Sertoli Cells
Androgens regulate Sertoli cells and affect fertility through specific receptors and coregulators.
research The Effect of Testosterone and Fleece-Flower Root on Mouse Hair.
Testosterone and fleece-flower root affect mouse hair growth.
research Serum and hair steroid profiles and their associations with body composition in adolescence.
Androgen levels are more linked to body size in boys than girls.

Older men should openly discuss sexual health with doctors to improve their quality of life.
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 Testosterone Supplementation for Aging-Associated Sarcopenia
Testosterone supplements can increase muscle mass and strength in older men with low levels, but long-term effects and risks need more research.
research LBMON231 Virilization Secondary To Androgen Producing Ovarian Serous Cystadenoma
A woman's masculine features were caused by a rare ovarian tumor that produced male hormones.
research Hormone replacement therapy in morphine-induced hypogonadic male chronic pain patients
Testosterone therapy can improve hormone levels and quality of life in men with morphine-induced hormone issues.
research Sex steroid hormones are associated with mortality in COVID-19 patients
Low testosterone and SHBG levels are linked to higher COVID-19 death rates.

Testosterone therapy may help women with low sexual desire after surgical menopause.
research Hormonal Profile of Men with Premature Balding
Men with early balding often have hormone levels similar to women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research The solar window hypothesis: androgenetic alopecia as an evolutionary adaptation to maintain bone mineral density in vitamin D receptor low-efficiency variants
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 Akkermansia muciniphila promotes testosterone‐mediated hair growth inhibition in mice
Akkermansia muciniphila may help prevent testosterone-related hair loss.
research Anti-androgenic potential of the fruit extracts of certain Egyptian Sabal species and their genetic variability studies: a metabolomic-molecular modeling approach
Certain Egyptian Sabal fruit extracts may help treat anti-androgenic diseases like benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Analysis of Methyltestosterone and Testosterone Propionate in Dried Blood Spots After Transdermal Application
The method effectively detects MeT and TP in dried blood spots after cream application.
research The stimulation of hair growth in the flank organs of female hamsters by subcutaneous testosterone propionate and its inhibition by topical cyproterone acetate: dose-response studies
Testosterone increases hamster hair growth; cyproterone acetate reduces it.
research Serum androgens and prostate-specific antigen levels in androgenetic alopecia: is there a difference between frontal and vertex baldness?
Vertex baldness has higher DHT levels than frontal baldness, but testosterone and PSA levels are similar.
research SERUM-CONCENTRATIONS OF Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate IN MEN WITH ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Men with male pattern baldness don't necessarily have high levels of Dehydroepyandrosterone-sulfate, and there's no link between its levels and the severity of hair loss.
research Androgen action on human skin – from basic research to clinical significance
Hormones like testosterone affect skin functions and can cause skin issues when in excess; treatments to manage these effects are only somewhat effective.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research Corticotropin releasing factor-1 receptor antagonism associated with favorable outcomes of male reproductive health biochemical parameters
Blocking CRF1 receptors improved male hormone levels and reduced testicular tumor size in men with a specific adrenal condition.
research Treatment of female sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal women—What is the evidence?
Hormonal changes and psychological issues can cause sexual dysfunction in postmenopausal women. Behavioral therapy is recommended first, with hormone replacement helping some symptoms but not libido. Testosterone can improve libido, but its effects on overall sexual function are unclear. Emotional and relationship issues should be addressed before using medication, and the benefits and risks of testosterone supplementation should be considered.
research A rare case of poorly-differentiated endometrial carcinoma in a female-to-male transgender man on testosterone therapy
Transgender men on testosterone therapy need ongoing gynecologic care due to potential cancer risks.
research SAT378 Unusual Case of Hirsutism From Prolactinoma Induced Dihydrotestosterone Elevation
A woman's excessive hair growth was linked to a rare case of high testosterone caused by a prolactin-producing pituitary tumor.
research Do 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Raise Circulating Serum Testosterone Levels? A Comprehensive Review and Meta-Analysis to Explaining Paradoxical Results
5α-Reductase inhibitors do not consistently increase testosterone levels in the blood.
research Circulating androgen levels before and after oophorectomy in premenopausal and postmenopausal women
