research Rapid nongenomic modulation by neurosteroids of dendritic spines in the hippocampus: Androgen, oestrogen and corticosteroid

33 citations , December 2017 in “Journal of neuroendocrinology”

This study describes molecular mechanisms explaining how sex and stress steroids rapidly modulate dendritic spine formation in hippocampal neurons, suggesting recovery-like effects under steroid-depleted conditions compared to intact conditions.

research Neurosteroids, neuroactive steroids, and symptoms of affective disorders

82 citations , August 2006 in “Pharmacology, Biochemistry and Behavior”

This review proposes focusing on relationships between neuroactive steroids and psychiatric disorder symptoms, rather than relying on traditional disorder classifications, and reports no new clinical findings.

research Neonatal finasteride induces anxiogenic-like profile and deteriorates passive avoidance in adulthood after intrahippocampal neurosteroid administration

27 citations , May 2008 in “Neuroscience”

This study found that altering neonatal neurosteroid levels affected anxiety and aversive learning in adult rats, possibly through changes in hippocampal GABAergic functions.

research Stress-Induced Deoxycorticosterone-Derived Neurosteroids Modulate GABA_AReceptor Function and Seizure Susceptibility

269 citations , May 2002 in “Journal of Neuroscience”

This study observed that acute stress in rats increased neurosteroid levels linked to enhanced GABA(A) receptor function, raising seizure thresholds, while similar effects were seen in mice with deoxycorticosterone administration.

research Studies on Neurosteroids XXV. Influence of a 5.ALPHA.-Reductase Inhibitor, Finasteride, on Rat Brain Neurosteroid Levels and Metabolism

61 citations , January 2008 in “Biological & Pharmaceutical Bulletin”

In this study, finasteride dose-dependently inhibited stress-induced increases in allopregnanolone in rats, while enhancing 20alpha-reduction of progesterone without affecting 3alpha-dihydroprogesterone or 11-deoxycorticosterone levels.

in Technology 1 year ago

Prolonged use of topical minoxidil and finasteride can lead to neuroendocrine and autonomic dysfunction, causing severe sensitivity and side effects. Recovery involves avoiding these treatments, supporting neurosteroid recovery, calming the sympathetic system, and rebuilding scalp health naturally.

community Finasteride - impact on Neurosteroids, which yes, \are important and not a garbage hormone

in Research/Science 163 upvotes 1 year ago

Finasteride may affect neurosteroids, impacting mood and sexual function, with varied user experiences. Some report side effects like depression and sexual dysfunction, while others find it effective for hair retention or prefer alternatives like Dutasteride or topical treatments.

community Progressive insomnia (treatment-resistant) due to Finasteride

8 upvotes 4 years ago

A medical student experienced hair loss slowing with Finasteride but developed severe, treatment-resistant insomnia. They tried various medications with little effect, suspecting Post-Finasteride Syndrome, and others suggested the insomnia might be linked to Finasteride's impact on neurosteroids.

community My Honest Take on PFS and Effective Treatment.

6 upvotes 1 week ago

Finasteride may trigger anxiety disorders in susceptible individuals, leading to symptoms often mistaken for permanent damage. Effective treatment should focus on addressing anxiety and panic disorders rather than hormonal imbalances.

community When you think about it blocking dht is not that big of a deal as it’s made out to be

in Research/Science 7 months ago

Reducing sebum can indirectly lower DHT levels, with treatments like accutane, tretinoin, and green tea extract acting as DHT blockers. Accutane can lower DHT levels by reducing 5α-reductase activity, but its impact on hair varies.
