450-480 / 1000+ resultsresearch A clinico-pathological study of Neogynon as a new oral contraceptive steroid.
Neogynon effectively prevents pregnancy but may cause side effects like headaches and menstrual changes.
research Synthesis and Study of Some 17a-aza-D-homo Steroids as 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
The research found that compound 6, a newly created steroid, is more effective at inhibiting 5α-reductase (an enzyme) than current treatments, suggesting it could be a better option for treating urinary tract symptoms in men.
research Biopharmaceutical research on the choice of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent in the development of combination gel for mastopathy therapy
Indometacin was chosen for a gel to help treat mastopathy and prevent breast cancer.
research Heavily hunted wolves have higher stress and reproductive steroids than wolves with lower hunting pressure
Heavily hunted wolves have higher stress and reproductive hormone levels.
research A Review of the Relationships Between Endogenous Sex Steroids and Incident Ischemic Stroke and Coronary Heart Disease Events
Lower testosterone increases heart disease risk; higher estradiol increases risk in women.
research 5 alpha-reductase inhibition by a new synthetic steroid (PM-9) in cultures of Penicillium crustosum.
PM-9, like finasteride, may help treat certain diseases by blocking a key enzyme.
research A Comparative Clinical and Trichoscopic Study Between Fractional Radiofrequency Microneedling Versus Intralesional Steroids in Treatment of Alopecia Areata
Fractional radiofrequency microneedling is as effective and safe as intralesional steroids for treating patchy alopecia areata, with fewer side effects.
research SARMS vs. anabolic steroids: comparative analysis of mechanisms, effects and health implications
research Suspected Calcinosis Cutis and Demodicosis, Secondary to an Exogenous Steroid Administration in a Dog with Hypoadrenocorticism
A dog developed skin issues from too many steroids, but reducing steroids and using a specific treatment fixed the problems.
research Comparative study between fractional carbon dioxide laser versus intralesional steroids injection in treatment of alopecia areata
Fractional CO2 laser is more effective and safer than steroid injections for treating alopecia areata.
research A controlled study of the effects of RU58841, a non-steroidal antiandrogen, on human hair production by balding scalp grafts maintained on testosterone-conditioned nude mice
research Hair growth effects of oral administration of finasteride, a steroid 5 alpha-reductase inhibitor, alone and in combination with topical minoxidil in the balding stumptail macaque.
Finasteride and minoxidil together promote hair growth better than either alone.
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 Synthesis, antiproliferative, acute toxicity and assessment of antiandrogenic activities of some newly synthesized steroidal lactams
research An overview on 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors, like Finasteride and Dutasteride, help manage benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Cortisol determination in hair and faeces from domestic cats and dogs
Hair cortisol can reliably indicate chronic stress in cats and dogs.
research Pharmacology of antiandrogens
Antiandrogens affect androgen-dependent body functions and are used for various medical conditions, with some risks like fetus feminization, but new forms like 17α-propylmesterolone show promise for acne without systemic effects.
research Acne
Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.
research Androgenetic alopecia in men and women
Androgenetic alopecia involves genetics, hormones, and can be treated with medications or surgery.
research Fulvestrant, a new treatment option for advanced breast cancer: tolerability versus existing agents
Fulvestrant is a well-tolerated new treatment for advanced breast cancer that may delay chemotherapy.
research The enzyme and inhibitors of 4-ene-3-oxosteroid 5α-oxidoreductase
Inhibitors of the enzyme 5 alpha-reductase could potentially treat disorders like prostate cancer and baldness.
research Androgen binding profiles of two distinct nuclear androgen receptors in Atlantic croaker (Micropogonias undulatus)
Different types of androgens bind differently to two receptors, AR1 and AR2, in Atlantic croaker's brain and ovarian tissues, suggesting these receptors may control different androgen actions in fish.
research Sulfatase inhibitors: a patent review
The document concludes that research on sulfatase inhibitors should continue due to their potential in treating various diseases, despite some clinical trial failures.
research A review on traditional uses, phytochemistry and pharmacology of Eclipta prostrata (L.) L.
Eclipta prostrata has many traditional uses and health benefits, but more research is needed to understand how it works and ensure it's safe.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research New 5?-reductase inhibitors: In vitro and in vivo effects
Four new compounds were more effective than finasteride in treating prostate issues and hair loss, with one being 100 times more active and safe for use.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research Recent advances in oxasteroids chemistry
New methods to make oxasteroids show promise for medical treatments like osteoporosis and breast cancer.
