This study suggests that in rat skin, testosterone itself may play a more significant role in androgen action than 5α-dihydrotestosterone, unlike in the prostate where 5α-DHT is more dominant.

This study found that dutasteride treatment in pregnant mares significantly increased progesterone concentrations but did not alter gestational length or neonatal outcomes.

This study found that male pattern baldness may serve as a clinical marker for circulating sex hormone levels in men with localized prostate cancer, while chest hair density showed no significant hormone association.

This review summarizes the structural and chemical characteristics of current and novel antiandrogenic drugs but reports no new clinical findings.

This paper reviews current knowledge about androgens' role in androgenic alopecia and female hirsutism but presents no new clinical findings.

This study identified new oxidative derivatives of finasteride, including a newly discovered metabolite, by using the fungus Macrophomina phaseolina.

This study developed a new measurement procedure using isotope dilution-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for accurate quantification of DHEAS in human serum or plasma, demonstrating high selectivity, sensitivity, and low measurement uncertainty, making it suitable for routine standardization and clinical evaluation.

This review identifies natural plants that possess androgen-related compounds, highlighting the potential of phytoandrogens as alternatives to allopathic treatments for conditions like hypogonadism, impotence, infertility, and erectile dysfunction.

This review suggests that GABAergic neuroactive steroids modulated by alcohol could play a role in vulnerability to alcohol use disorders, providing a rationale for further therapeutic exploration.

This study demonstrated that steroidal carbamates 7–10 altered mRNA expression related to lipid metabolism in hamster flank organs and inhibited 5α-reductase activity without binding to the progesterone receptor.

This study found that various steroids affected the mRNA expression of enzymes involved in lipid metabolism in hamster flank organs, with different impacts depending on the steroid and combination used.

This study identified a new minoxidil analogue called triaminodil in an illegal hair-growth supplement, but no data on its chemical, toxicological, or pharmacological properties are available yet.

In this study, intrathecal progesterone administration initially worsened mechanical allodynia in mice after nerve injury, but later reduced pain when applied during the maintenance phase, highlighting distinct roles for cytochrome P450c17 and 5α-reductase in neuropathic pain modulation.

In this study, researchers found that female rats exhibited more pronounced panic-related escape behavior during hypoxia, particularly in the diestrus phase, and that low-dose fluoxetine reduced this behavior, suggesting its potential for managing panic disorder symptoms related to hormonal cycles in women.

This study identified numerous nutraceutical components in unripe fruits of three Musa species, potentially valuable for developing pharmaceuticals that promote human health.

This study demonstrated that cryogelation of human hair keratin allows the development of 3D scaffolds with tunable properties, supporting cell adhesion and proliferation for potential biomedical applications.

This chapter reviews genetic defects in female sexual differentiation, focusing on 46,XX disorders of sex development and the impact of genetic factors and sex steroids on development, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study showed that regulation of adipose androgen generation via AKR1C3 may contribute to a cycle of hyperinsulinaemia and lipid accumulation in women with PCOS.

The document concludes that treatments for female hair loss and excess body hair are available, but managing expectations is important.

Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.

This review discusses hormones that affect acne and highlights a statistically significant link between a low-glycemic-load diet and reduced acne activity, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study developed a rapid method using advanced chromatography and mass spectrometry to detect hair-growth enhancing compounds, discovering synthetic drugs in about 21% of tested supplements.

This study found that the dimethyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion system significantly improved the solubility and bioavailability of finasteride compared to the drug alone, enhancing its absorption rate.

This review discusses the applications of low level laser therapy (LLLT) in wound healing, pain reduction, and treating various conditions, but reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for randomized controlled trials for serious diseases.

This article reviews the historical developments in understanding and treating male pattern hair loss, emphasizing the role of dihydrotestosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the diagnosis and treatment of hirsutism, emphasizing that a systematic evaluation can determine its cause, while combination therapy effectively manages the condition for most patients.

This study found that TRPV1 activation in human scalp hair follicles inhibited hair shaft elongation, suppressed proliferation, and induced apoptosis, suggesting TRPV1 as a potential target for managing hair growth and epithelial disorders.

This article discusses treatments for hirsutism and acne in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting that lower doses of current medications maintain efficacy while reducing cost and side effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the advancements in understanding and treating androgenetic alopecia and alopecia areata but reports no clinical findings; the authors emphasize the need for further research on molecular control mechanisms.

This systematic review concluded that the support for using spironolactone at commonly prescribed doses is based on evidence of limited quality.
