    TLDR Cyproterone acetate reduces hair growth and oil production.
    The study investigated the effects of cyproterone acetate on hair growth, sebaceous secretion, and endocrine parameters in a hirsute subject. The results indicated that cyproterone acetate significantly reduced hair growth and sebaceous gland activity. Additionally, the treatment led to notable changes in endocrine parameters, suggesting its potential effectiveness in managing hirsutism. The findings provided valuable insights into the therapeutic use of cyproterone acetate for conditions associated with excessive hair growth.
