Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.

Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.

Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.

Curcumin and its derivatives can block an enzyme important for making testosterone, with one derivative being particularly strong.

The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.

Human sebaceous glands contain enzymes that affect androgen production and may influence sebum production and acne.

New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.

Hair sensitivity to androgens is partly controlled by specific enzyme expressions in different hair areas.

Too much androgen can cause hair loss; finasteride may help.

Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.

Certain 4-azasteroids are effective at blocking the enzyme that processes testosterone in human skin and could help treat acne, excessive hair growth, and male pattern baldness.

Androgens, like DHT, affect hair growth and treatments like finasteride may help.

Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.

Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.

DHEA stimulates skin oil glands and could help postmenopausal women, with potential for acne and excessive hair growth treatments.

Dihydrotestosterone can be made from dehydroepiandrosterone in skin cells without needing testosterone.

Finasteride treatment changes brain steroid levels and receptors, affecting brain function even after stopping treatment.

Korean and Caucasian men with male pattern baldness have different hair steroid levels.

Coumarin derivatives show promise as anti-estrogenic agents for treating breast cancer, with some in clinical trials.

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.

Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is a genetic disorder with two forms, causing symptoms like early puberty and severe acne, but can be identified through screening and treated with glucocorticoids.

New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.

Androgens have complex effects on hair growth, promoting it in some areas but causing hair loss in others, and our understanding of this is still evolving.

Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.

Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.

Insulin resistance contributes to hormone imbalances in many women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

Acne significantly affects mental health and quality of life, with research suggesting hormonal and genetic factors in its development and emphasizing early treatment to prevent scarring.

DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.

Certain gene variants may contribute to high androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
