Dermal Papilla cells are a promising tool for evaluating hair growth treatments.
research Hormonal therapy for acne: why not as first line therapy? facts and controversies
Hormonal treatments can help with acne but are not the first choice due to side effects and the need for careful patient selection.
research Critical Analysis on Characterization, Systemic Effect, and Therapeutic Potential of Beta-Sitosterol: A Plant-Derived Orphan Phytosterol
Beta-sitosterol has potential health benefits but needs more research to fully understand its effects and improve its use in treatments.

research Neuroactive steroid levels and psychiatric and andrological features in post-finasteride patients
Post-finasteride patients show changed neuroactive steroid levels, possibly causing erectile dysfunction and depression.
research 5α-Reductase type 2 gene variant associations with prostate cancer risk, circulating hormone levels and androgenetic alopecia
A49T gene variant linked to higher prostate cancer risk, lower hormone levels, and slightly reduced balding risk.
research Established risk factors for coronary heart disease are unrelated to androgen-induced baldness in female-to-male transsexuals
Baldness caused by male hormones in female-to-male transsexuals doesn't increase the risk of heart disease.
research The dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hypothesis of prostate cancer and its therapeutic implications
The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.
research Elevated Free Testosterone Levels in Women With Acne
Some women with acne have higher levels of free testosterone, which might suggest using hormonal treatments for acne.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Evaluation of Female Fertility—AMH and Ovarian Reserve Testing
