research Approach to the adult female patient with diffuse nonscarring alopecia
The document concludes that careful evaluation is key to diagnose and treat women with hair loss, with tests for thyroid, iron, and hormones as needed.
research Serum C-19 steroid sulphates in females with clinical hyperandrogenism
Women with hyperandrogenism have higher androgen levels and lower SHBG, which may contribute to conditions like excessive hair growth and early puberty.
research Balancing Hormones and Skin Health: A Focus on Oral Contraceptives in Dermatology
Oral contraceptives help treat acne and hair issues by balancing hormones but need careful use due to possible side effects.
research Re: Effect of Testosterone Supplementation With and Without a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor on Fat-Free Mass in Men with Suppressed Testosterone Production: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Testosterone increases muscle mass regardless of DHT conversion blocking.
research Insulin sensitivity, androgens and isotretinoin therapy in women with severe acne
Isotretinoin improves severe acne without changing androgen or insulin levels but may increase body weight and triglycerides.
research Hirsutism in the Adolescent Female
The conclusion is that young women with excessive hair growth should be quickly tested for hormonal issues and treated to improve their social well-being.
research Polymorphisms in Genes Involved in Steroidogenesis in the Development of Severe Acne
Certain gene variations are linked to a higher risk of severe acne, suggesting a genetic influence on the condition.
research Serum Metabolomics Study of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Based on Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry
Women with PCOS have different levels of certain fats and proteins in their blood, which could help diagnose the condition.
research Serum 3α-androstanediol-glucuronide is decreased in nonhirsute women with acne vulgaris
Women with acne have lower levels of a specific hormone marker than women without acne.
research Circulating androgen levels before and after oophorectomy in premenopausal and postmenopausal women
Oophorectomy lowers testosterone and estrogen levels in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women, with postmenopausal women still producing significant testosterone.
research Correlation of Serum 3α-Androstanediol Glucuronide with Acne and Chest Hair Density in Men
Higher levels of a specific hormone are linked to more chest hair and acne in men.
research The Serum Evaluation of Sex Hormones Including DHEAs, DHT, Testosterone in Oral Lichen Planus Patients
Oral lichen planus is not linked to sex hormone levels.
research Studies on changes in the concentration of serum adrenal androgens in pubertal twins
Adrenal androgens are important for puberty and are influenced by genetics.
research Increased Scalp Skin and Serum 5a-Reductase Reduced Androgens in a Man Relevant to the Acquired Progressive Kinky Hair Disorder and Developing Androgenetic Alopecia
Reduced androgens linked to kinky hair disorder and hair loss; 5a-reductase inhibitors may help.
research Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Androgen Receptor and Nerve Structure Density in Human Prepuce from Patients with Persistent Sexual Side Effects after Finasteride Use for Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride, a hair loss drug, may cause long-term sexual side effects due to changes in hormone receptor levels.
research Serum Gelsolin Levels in PCOS-Related Androgenetic Alopecia
Women with PCOS and hair loss have lower levels of the protein gelsolin in their blood.
research Regional difference in sebum production by androgen susceptibility in human facial skin
The T-zone on the face has more androgen receptors and produces more oil than the U-zone.
research Receiver operating characteristic analysis of the performance of basal serum hormone profiles for the diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome in epidemiological studies
Low SHBG and high FAI, FT, and DHEAS levels are effective in identifying PCOS.
research Effect of MK-386, a novel inhibitor of type 1 5 alpha-reductase, alone and in combination with finasteride, on serum dihydrotestosterone concentrations in men.
MK-386 and finasteride together effectively reduce DHT levels, potentially treating acne and male pattern baldness.
research Puberty in Boys: Correlation of Plasma Levels of Gonadotropins (LH, FSH), Androgens (Testosterone, Androstenedione, Dehydroepiandrosterone and Its Sulfate), Estrogens (Estrone and Estradiol) and Progestins (Progesterone and 17-Hydroxyprogesterone)
Hormone levels change during puberty, leading to physical developments like pubic hair and voice changes.
research Anti-Müllerian hormone gene polymorphism is associated with androgen levels in Chinese polycystic ovary syndrome patients with insulin resistance
Certain gene variations are linked to higher male hormone levels in Chinese women with PCOS and insulin resistance.
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 The influence of obesity on Androstenedione to Testosterone ratio in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and hyperandrogenemia
Obesity changes androgen levels in women with PCOS, leading to higher testosterone relative to androstenedione.
research Hyperandrogenism and menstrual imbalance are the best predictors of metformin response in PCOS patients
High levels of male hormones and irregular periods best predict how well PCOS patients will respond to metformin treatment.
research Relationship Between Steroid Hormones and Metabolic Profile in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

research [Analysis of steroids and binding proteins in the blood of women with androgenetic alopecia].
Women with androgenetic alopecia have normal levels of most blood steroids and binding proteins, but higher dehydroepiandrosterone. Some also have low "sex hormone-binding globulin" and "corticosteroide-binding globulin" capacity, and high "free androgen index" and "free cortisol index". Diane treatment can normalize these levels and improve hair conditions.
