This case study reported that a 51-year-old woman with hirsutism and voice thickening had a Leydig cell tumor detected by PET-CT, which normalized hormone levels and resolved symptoms after surgical removal.

This study suggests that 5-ADIOL-S may contribute to the synthesis of potent androgens in peripheral tissues, and 3 alpha-DIOL-S could be a marker of androgen metabolism in various female patient groups.

This case report and literature review describes a 27-year-old woman with a Sertoli Leydig cell tumor causing testosterone-related symptoms and highlights normalization of hormone levels after surgical treatment.

This article discusses the various roles of steroids in vertebrate organ systems and notes several glucocorticoids that were among the Top 200 Drugs by sales in the 2010s, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that in PCOS women, polycystic ovarian morphology is linked to more severe hormonal imbalances and insulin resistance, especially in those who are overweight or obese.

In this study, biochemical and clinical hyperandrogenism in PCOS were found to be distinct entities with no strong androgen correlation to clinical symptoms like acne or hirsutism.

This article discusses the role of the androgen receptor in regulating development and homeostasis, and reviews treatment approaches for conditions related to hormone imbalances, without reporting new clinical findings.

This review discusses the effects of neuroactive testosterone metabolites on CNS functions and suggests their potential as therapeutic options for neurological disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with virilization linked to ovarian stromal hyperthecosis, highlighting the importance of detailed clinical evaluation and complementary testing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This study evaluated an herbal emulgel formulation containing extracts from Wedelia chinensis and Cassytha filiformis for hair growth promotion in rats, finding that the combined formulation significantly increased hair growth compared to both individual extracts and the control group.

This study found that ursolic acid at 50 mg/kg improved biochemical, hormonal, and ovarian histopathological markers in a rat model of PCOS, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic option.

This study found that acupuncture may reduce anxiety and depression in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, potentially through hormonal and neuroendocrine modulation, but further high-quality research is needed to confirm these findings.

This article reviews the use of hair cortisol concentration as a biomarker to assess long-term stress in both animals and humans, but it reports no new experimental results.

This case report describes a 61-year-old female with hyperandrogenic symptoms, where an ovarian hemangioma with stromal luteinization was identified and surgically removed, resulting in improved symptoms.

This case report highlights a rare instance of postmenopausal virilization in a 71-year-old woman due to coexisting ovarian hilus cell hyperplasia and a Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor.

This case report details a diagnosis of adult-onset isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in a 23-year-old African American female, highlighting its genetic basis and treatment approach.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with hirsutism and hair loss attributed to ovarian stromal hyperplasia; surgical removal of the ovaries normalized testosterone levels and resolved symptoms.

This review discusses the role of neurosteroids and androgens throughout different life stages, noting the potential disruptions caused by 5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride, but no new clinical results are reported.

The woman's rare combination of diseases suggests an unknown factor may predispose individuals to multiple endocrine diseases.

This review discusses polycystic ovary syndrome, highlighting its associations with hyperandrogenism, chronic anovulation, polycystic ovaries, and increased risks of infertility and metabolic disorders, and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers observed that the sequence of maturity markers in normal boys showed specific time lags, with some markers appearing before and others after spermarche.

This review examines the role of androgens and androgen receptors in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, focusing on their effects on mitochondrial content and function; it also discusses the sex-dimorphic influence of androgens and provides theoretical insights into their mechanisms.

This review discusses the pathophysiology of alopecia areata, highlighting the role of CD8 cytotoxic T cells and the upregulation of JAK signaling pathways; it reports no new experimental results.

This study found that PSA concentrations in peripheral blood are related to androgen levels, suggesting that PSA is a valuable marker for diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women.

This article reviews the clinical and biochemical features of genetic mutations affecting dihydrotestosterone production and their potential role in male pseudo-hermaphroditism, but presents no new clinical results.

This research found that androgen bioactivity plays a role in normal female sexual differentiation, suggesting females develop within a significant androgenic environment, with implications for understanding conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
