research Verstärkter Haarwuchs unter Langzeittokolyse mit Fenoterol** unter Berücksichtigung von Testosteron, Androstandiol, Cortisol und ACTH*
Fenoterol treatment causes increased hair growth due to higher metabolism in hair follicles, not hormones.
research Evaluation of efficacy, safety, and reversibility of combination regimen of cyproterone acetate and testosterone buciclate in bonnet monkey
The right dosage of CPA and TB can work as a safe and reversible male contraceptive in monkeys.
research In vivo and in vitro effect of novel 4,16-pregnadiene-6,20-dione derivatives, as 5α-reductase inhibitors

Androstanediol glucuronide is a reliable marker for hirsutism in women.
research Cortexolone 17a-propionate: A new antiandrogen acting on hair dermal papilla cells for the treatment of androgenic alopecia
Cortexolone 17a-propionate may be an effective new treatment for hair loss.
research Finasteride/testosterone undecanoate
Testosterone undecanoate caused hair loss; finasteride improved it but caused stomach issues for one patient.
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 Safety aspects of androgen treatment with 5α-dihydrotestosterone
DHT is a strong androgen that may pose less risk to the prostate compared to testosterone.
research Achieving Physiologic 17-ẞ-Estradiol Levels in Transgender Females on Estradiol Transdermal Patches and Optimal Dosing
Transgender females can reach their target estrogen levels using estradiol patches, especially if oral treatments fail or if they're at risk for blood clots. Often, the highest dose patch is needed.
research Diphlorethohydroxycarmalol, Isolated from Ishige okamurae, Increases Prostaglandin E2through the Expression of Cyclooxygenase-1 and -2 in HaCaT Human Keratinocytes
A compound from brown algae boosts the production of a certain inflammatory substance in skin cells.
research Hormonal Treatment of Transgender Women with Oral Estradiol
Oral estradiol works for many transgender women but needs personalized dosing and monitoring.
research [Proliferation behavior of the anagen hair bulb in androgenetic alopecia before and after local administration of 17 alpha- propylmesterolone–DNA flow cytophotometry studies].
Topical 17 alpha-propylmesterolone increases hair cell growth in androgenetic alopecia.
research Use of high dose cyproterone acetate and risk of intracranial meningioma in women: cohort study
High doses of cyproterone acetate increase the risk of brain tumors in women, but the risk decreases after stopping the medication.
research Palmitoylethanolamide Stimulation Induces Allopregnanolone Synthesis in C6 Cells and Primary Astrocytes: Involvement of Peroxisome-Proliferator Activated Receptor-α
PEA boosts allopregnanolone production and reduces oxidative stress in brain cells.
research Ultra-low dose estradiol and dydrogesterone for the treatment of menopausal symptoms in a pooled, multi-ethnic population
The treatment effectively reduces menopausal symptoms and is well tolerated.
research Cutaneous hydroxystereoid dehydrogenases and rat-hair-cycle
Certain enzymes react strongly with some hormones in rat skin during hair growth, mainly in sebaceous glands and hair sheaths.
research Ethanol‐induced elevation of 3α‐hydroxy‐5α‐pregnan‐20‐one does not modulate motor incoordination in rats
Ethanol-induced motor incoordination in rats is not affected by increased neuroactive steroids.
research Synthesis and biological evaluation of esters of 16-formyl-17-methoxy-dehydroepiandrosterone derivatives as inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 2
Certain derivatives are more effective 5α-reductase type 2 inhibitors than finasteride.
research Dihydrotestosterone induces p27 degradation via direct binding with SKP2 in ovarian and breast cancer
Dihydrotestosterone causes p27 protein breakdown in ovarian and breast cancer cells by binding with SKP2.
research Use of cyproterone acetate (CPA) in the treatment of acne, hirsutism and virilism
Cyproterone acetate is effective for acne but less so for hirsutism and alopecia, with some side effects and quick menstrual cycle recovery after treatment.
research Testosterone Therapy in Premenopausal Women
Testosterone therapy may improve mood, well-being, and sexual function in premenopausal women, but more research is needed on its long-term safety and effectiveness.
research Effects of sex steroid hormones and their metabolites on neuronal injury caused by oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation in organotypic hippocampal slice cultures
