Polygoni Cuspidati Rhizoma et Radix contains compounds that inhibit certain enzymes.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Effect of 1 mg/day finasteride on concentrations of serum prostate-specific antigen in men with androgenic alopecia: a randomised controlled trial.
Taking 1mg of finasteride daily for hair loss can lower PSA levels by 40-50%, so to keep PSA effective as a cancer screening tool, the PSA value should be doubled during treatment.
research Serum Prostate Specific Antigen level in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS have higher PSA levels, which are linked to increased male hormone levels and hirsutism.
research Investigation of Children's Hair Lead Level and Its Effect of Healthy in A Lead-Zinc Mine

research Fixed-dose combination PRO 160/120 of sabal and urtica extracts improves nocturia in men with LUTS suggestive of BPH: re-evaluation of four controlled clinical studies
The herbal combination of saw palmetto and stinging nettle reduces nighttime urination in men with urinary issues.
research 5-α-Reductase inhibitors for prostate cancer chemoprevention: an updated Cochrane systematic review
5-α-reductase inhibitors reduce prostate cancer risk but may cause sexual dysfunction and don't affect high-grade tumor or death rates.
research PD57-09 NATIONAL SURGICAL QUALITY IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM SURGICAL RISK CALCULATOR POORLY PREDICTS COMPLICATIONS IN PATIENTS UNDERGOING RADICAL CYSTECTOMY WITH URINARY DIVERSION: THE CASE FOR A PROCEDURE-SPECIFIC RISK CALCULATOR
Finasteride use is linked to a lower risk of bladder cancer, especially in Caucasians and Hispanics.
research 5α-Reductase inhibitors increase acute coronary syndrome risk in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia
Taking both finasteride and dutasteride for prostate issues may raise the risk of heart problems.
research Synthesis and structure–activity investigation of iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins for development as androgen receptor radioligands
Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.
research A sub-acute toxicity study to assess the effects of methanol extract of date palm fruit on kidney functions in adult Wistar rats
Low doses of date palm extract improve kidney function, but high doses can harm it.
research Effects of Russelia equisetiformis methanol and aqueous extracts on hepatic function indices
Russelia equisetiformis extracts can harm liver function.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors and Chemoprevention: The PCPT and Beyond
5α-reductase inhibitors can reduce prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors, needing more research.
research Analytical methods of dutasteride: An overview
Dutasteride is more effective than finasteride for hair loss treatment.
research Iron, Copper, and Magnesium Concentration in Hair and Risk of Esophageal Cancer: A Nested Case-Control Study
Higher iron levels in hair may increase the risk of esophageal cancer.
research Preliminary Toxicity Profile of Arotinoids SMR-2 and SMR-6 in Male B6D2F1 Mice
SMR-2 and SMR-6 are much more toxic than retinoic acid, causing severe symptoms and organ damage in mice.
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.
