Acankoreoside J from Acanthopanax koreanum may help promote hair growth.

A woman with lupus experienced skin death due to a blood clotting disorder after stopping a blood thinner, which healed with treatment.

Normal levels for certain hormones in Chinese women of reproductive age were identified.

Two plywood factory workers developed contact dermatitis from phenol-formaldehyde resin, a known allergen.

The document concludes that hormonal biomarkers are key for diagnosing hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men.

PSA levels could help detect illegal steroid use in female athletes but face challenges like cost and PCOS prevalence.

Rat skin takes up and processes testosterone differently than other organs, with testosterone being more important for the skin than its metabolite 5α-DHT.

Germacrene analogs, especially 8-Hydroxy germacrene B, are more effective than germacrone at blocking a hormone-related enzyme and could help treat hair loss.

Hair loss causes differ between men and women due to changes in hormone levels and inflammation-related pathways.

Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.

The GH-IGF-I axis is likely involved in the hormonal imbalances seen in non-obese women with functional hyperandrogenism.
