420-450 / 1000+ resultsresearch Male pseudohermaphroditism due to 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency: Studies on the natural history of the defect and effect of androgens on gender role
Individuals with this condition often develop male traits and identities at puberty despite being raised as females.
research Prescribing testosterone and DHEA: The role of androgens in women
Testosterone and DHEA can benefit women's health but must be prescribed carefully due to potential risks.
research NEONATAL INHIBITION OF ANDROGEN ACTIVITY ALTERS THE PROGRAMMING OF BODY WEIGHT AND OREXINERGIC PEPTIDES DIFFERENTIALLY IN MALE AND FEMALE RATS
Blocking androgen activity in newborn rats affects body weight and appetite-related hormones differently in males and females.
research 837 Characterization of cutaneous hormone production through analysis of skin secretions
Skin produces different hormones depending on body part and sex, and a new method can measure them.
research Androgen action on human skin – from basic research to clinical significance
Hormones like testosterone affect skin functions and can cause skin issues when in excess; treatments to manage these effects are only somewhat effective.
research Human Osteoblast-Like Cells Express Predominantly Steroid 5α-Reductase Type 1
Human bone cells mainly produce a type 1 enzyme that may help regulate bone health.
research Progesterone in gender-affirming therapy of trans women
Progesterone may help trans women with breast development and health, but more research is needed.
research Consequences of steroid-5α-reductase deficiency and inhibition in vertebrates
Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
research Childhood urbanicity and hair steroid hormone levels in ten-year-old children
research Gender-Affirming Hormonal Treatment in Transgender People Assigned Female at Birth (AFAB)
research Plasma levels of C19 steroid glucuronides in pre-menopausal women with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Women with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia have higher levels of certain steroids, which can be reduced by treatment.
research Treatment of androgenic disorders in women: acne, hirsutism, and alopecia
Androgen excess disorders in women were effectively treated with spironolactone, estrogen, and dexamethasone.
research Nutraceuticals for Hormonal Imbalance Management
Nutraceuticals can effectively manage hormonal imbalances and related health issues.
research Testosterone Down-regulates Expression of αVβ3-integrin, E-cadherin and Mucin-1 during Uterine Receptivity Period in Rats
Testosterone reduces key molecules needed for early pregnancy in rats.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research Steroidogenic response of adrenal tissues after administration of ACTH to dogs with hypercortisolemia
High adrenal sex hormones in dogs with hypercortisolemia can mislead adrenal hyperplasia diagnosis.
research Effect of testosterone and its antagonists on knee range of motion through RXFP1 and RXFP2 regulation in rat model (911.12)
Testosterone reduces knee movement, while flutamide and finasteride increase it.
research Study on Effect of Constant-release Melatonin on SOX21 Gene
Constant-release melatonin reduces SOX21 gene expression in goats during the hair follicle resting phase.
research 7472 Estrogen Monotherapy for Testosterone Suppression in Gender Diverse Patients
Estrogen alone may effectively suppress testosterone in some transfeminine individuals.
research Nipple Differentiation in Fetal Male Rats Treated with an Inhibitor of the Enzyme 5α-Reductase: Definition of a Selective Role for Dihydrotestosterone*
