Flutamide and finasteride reduced sex hormones in pregnant hyenas, but increased them in males.
research Finasteride: The First 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and baldness, but may cause limited urinary improvement and sex-related side effects.

research The Impact of Sulforaphane on Sex-Specific Conditions and Hormone Balance: A Comprehensive Review
Sulforaphane from broccoli may help treat certain cancers, hormone issues, and hair loss.
research The role of androgen therapy
Testosterone therapy can help women with androgen deficiency by improving energy, sex drive, and bone health with few side effects.
research Levonorgestrel effects on serum androgens, sex hormone–binding globulin levels, hair shaft diameter, and sexual function
research Targeting neurosteroid synthesis as a therapy for schizophrenia-related alterations induced by early psychosocial stress
A drug improved schizophrenia-like symptoms in stressed rats by changing brain steroid levels.
research The Biomolecular Effects of Finasteride on Male Rat Brain during Administration and after Discontinuation
Finasteride temporarily suppresses brain activity, but some effects last even after stopping.
research Cardiovascular risks and elevation of serum DHT vary by route of testosterone administration: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Oral testosterone therapy raises heart risk more than other methods.
research Histopathological insights into hair loss in Cronkhite-Canada syndrome: Diffuse anagen-telogen conversion precedes clinical hair loss progression
Hair loss in Cronkhite-Canada syndrome is reversible by treating the gut issues and doesn't need steroid treatment for the hair itself.
research The Possible Role of Prescribing Medications, Including Central Nervous System Drugs, in Contributing to Male-Factor Infertility (MFI): Assessment of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Pharmacovigilance Database
Some medications might contribute to male infertility, with finasteride showing a high number of reports.
research Coat condition, housing condition and measurement of faecal cortisol metabolites - a non-invasive study about alopecia in captive rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta)
Alopecia in captive rhesus macaques is affected by season, sex, age, housing, and stress, with complex links between stress hormones and hair loss.
research Effect of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on post-surgical complications against the backdrop of the opioid crisis
NSAIDs may not affect soft tissue healing but should be used carefully for bone fractures and more research is needed to understand sex differences in response.
research Sexual dysfunction in men taking systemic dermatologic medication: A systematic review
Some men taking finasteride for hair loss may experience sexual problems like erectile dysfunction and decreased sex drive, which can persist even after stopping the medication.
research Alleviation of Androgenetic Alopecia with Aqueous Paeonia lactiflora and Poria cocos Extract Intake through Suppressing the Steroid Hormone and Inflammatory Pathway
Paeonia lactiflora and Poria cocos extracts can potentially increase hair growth and reduce hair loss symptoms by lowering testosterone and inflammation levels.
research The effects of methylated flavonoids on depression-like activity and pro-inflammatory cytokine thresholds in mice induced by repeated finasteride administration
Methylated flavonoids may effectively reduce depression and inflammation caused by finasteride.
research A clinical study on alopecia areata
Intralesional corticosteroids are the best for limited alopecia areata, oral steroids are less effective, and PRP is safe and promising, especially for children and severe cases.
research Androgen receptor activation integrates complex transcriptional effects in osteoblasts, involving the growth factors TGF-β and IGF-I, and transcription factor C/EBPδ
DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.
research Pathophysiological mechanisms implicated in postpartum depression
Postpartum depression is linked to changes in brain chemicals, inflammation, stress, and certain genes, and can potentially be identified by markers like specific steroids, serotonin levels, and vitamin D levels.
research Dihydrotestosterone, and Not Testosterone, Enhances the LPS-Induced Inflammatory Cytokine Gene Expression in Human Adipocytes
Dihydrotestosterone boosts inflammation in fat cells more than testosterone.
research Triglycerides, independent of Ferriman Gallwey Score, is a main determinant of free testosterone index in PCOS
High triglyceride levels are a key factor affecting testosterone levels in women with PCOS.
research Early androgen activity after birth determines the hypothalamic expression of androgen and estrogen receptors in adulthood in female but not in male rats
Early androgen exposure affects hormone receptor expression in adult female rats' brains, but not in males.
research Scoring systems for pemphigus
The Pemphigus Disease Area Index and Autoimmune Bullous Skin Disorder Intensity Score are the best tools for assessing pemphigus severity.
