A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.

The engineered yeast strain BLYAS can quickly and sensitively detect androgenic chemicals.

Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.

Androgenetic alopecia is a common hair loss condition caused by testosterone effects on hair follicles, leading to thinner, shorter, and less pigmented hair, diagnosed using scalp dermoscopy and treated with topical minoxidil, antiandrogen agents, and 5-alpha reductase inhibitors.

Hirsutism in females is caused by high male hormones or sensitive hair follicles.

Healthcare providers need better education and resources to give competent and sensitive care to transgender patients.
