This review found that chromium supplementation has limited effects on weight reduction, glucose control, lipid profile, and hormonal balance in women with PCOS, highlighting the need for further research.

This study observed that female mice with disrupted 5α-reductase 1 showed increased insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis, suggesting altered glucocorticoid metabolism contributes to metabolic disorders.

This review explores whether oligomenorrhoea in exercising women is a mild subclinical phenotype of PCOS or part of a spectrum of energy deficiency-related menstrual disturbances, without new clinical results.

In this animal study, topical diazoxide treatment led to increased hair thickness and follicle growth in bald stumptailed macaques without causing notable systemic side effects.

This article discusses the role of suction-assisted lipectomy (SAL) and the hCG method in obesity management, highlighting the speculative benefits of hCG but reporting no new clinical findings.

This study found that aged C57BL/6 mice sub-strains exhibit distinct aging patterns, including differences in survival rates, body weight changes, and disease incidences, providing valuable insights for geriatric research using these mice models.

Skin conditions can signal heart issues, highlighting the need for integrated care.

This systematic review identified several factors contributing to increased cardiovascular risk in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, including insulin resistance, obesity, inflammation markers, and microbiota alterations linked to elevated trimethylamine-N-oxide levels.

This review summarizes the current knowledge on polycystic ovary syndrome, including its features, diagnosis, and treatment, and highlights the need for further research to fill existing knowledge gaps.

This case study suggests that treatment with Pil-Food, intended for hair loss prevention, may have triggered postinfantile giant cell hepatitis with autoimmune characteristics, which showed a rapid and effective response to corticosteroid therapy.

This review discusses the early developmental origin of premature adrenarche and polycystic ovary syndrome and highlights potential utero-based mechanisms, reporting no new clinical findings.

This review discusses possible links between certain skin conditions and elevated coronary disease risk, but reports no new results and highlights methodological flaws in existing studies.

This article reviews the differential diagnosis of mild hyperandrogenism in adolescent girls, discussing potential causes such as PCOS and nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia, but presents no new data.

In this study, children with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia were found to have increased epicardial fat thickness, which was associated with subclinical atherosclerosis markers and left ventricular dysfunction, especially in poorly controlled cases.

The document concludes that managing PCOS involves treating symptoms and reducing long-term metabolic risks, with lifestyle changes being important.

This review discusses androgen deficiency syndrome in women, its symptoms, and how androgen replacement therapy generally alleviates related issues without significant side-effects, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that co-administering glucocorticoids with 5α-reductase inhibitors exacerbated the adverse metabolic effects of glucocorticoids in healthy men.

In this study, long-term normalization of testosterone levels in postmenopausal women with hyperandrogenism did not improve body mass index, glucose, or lipid metabolism.

This study found that subclinical hypothyroidism had minimal impact on the metabolic and hormonal profiles of women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

The study concluded that serum AMH is a useful tool for diagnosing polycystic ovarian morphology in women with persistent acne, potentially replacing transvaginal ultrasound, though it does not correlate with hyperandrogenemia.

In this study of healthy men, low levels of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone were associated with higher body mass index, fat content, and insulin resistance, but their effects on lipid and glucose metabolism were similar in quality.

This study developed a detailed classification system for functional androgenization in females that may enhance diagnosis and personalized treatment by identifying individual dysfunctions.

This review examines rodent models to explore how maternal conditions like undernutrition, obesity, hypoxia, and androgen exposure affect fetal programming and metabolic outcomes in offspring, but presents no new clinical findings.

This commentary reviews potential dietary and mineral influences on androgenetic alopecia and suggests considering a diet low in cholesterol and glycaemic index with improved glucose control and magnesium fortification, without new clinical results.

This study found that stress plays a significant role in altering phenotypic features and body composition among PCOS patients, potentially worsening due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

This study found that oral contraceptives containing cyproterone acetate significantly improved the overall quality of life in polycystic ovary syndrome patients after 6 months compared to those containing levonorgestrel.

In this study, insulin resistance was observed at similar rates in non-obese women with idiopathic hirsutism, those with PCOS, and healthy controls.

This study found that melatonin treatment increased epidermal thickness, subcutaneous fat, and dermal-related factors in postmenopausal rats, suggesting benefits for skin structure after menopause.

This review summarizes recent studies on metformin for polycystic ovary syndrome, reporting its beneficial effects on endocrine, metabolic, and reproductive outcomes, but highlights ongoing debate about its mechanisms.

This study reported that higher weight-for-age z scores and rapid weight gain during infancy, especially from birth to 3 months, were linked to an increased likelihood of puberty onset in girls.
