This review discusses the causes, clinical features, diagnostic approach, and treatment options for hirsutism in women, but reports no new findings.

Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.

In this study, researchers found that human ovaries at different life stages biosynthesize both canonical and non-canonical steroid hormones, with fetal ovaries showing higher enzyme activity related to estradiol and testosterone conversion compared to adult tissues.

This report presents a case of functioning adrenocortical oncocytoma in a 9-year-old girl with virilization symptoms, successfully treated with laparoscopic surgery.

This study found that tildacerfont treatment in males with congenital adrenal hyperplasia reduced androgen levels and improved markers of testicular function, suggesting potential benefits for male reproductive health.

This narrative review explores how psychological stress may contribute to premature skin aging by affecting dermal collagen and elastin remodeling through neuroendocrine, molecular, and cellular pathways, highlighting potential therapeutic targets to preserve skin structure and function.

This case report details a 26-year-old woman with a rare large functional adrenal myelolipoma, characterized by elevated hormone levels and requiring surgical intervention.

This study found that neonatal blocking of androgen and estrogen pathways in rats altered sex-specific expression of estrogen and androgen receptors in adult pituitary and adrenal glands, potentially influencing lifelong neuroendocrine function.

In this case study, a 69-year-old woman with severe hypercortisolism developed acute adrenal insufficiency after starting ketoconazole treatment, highlighting the need for cautious dosing and close monitoring of adrenal function, particularly in patients with prior glucocorticoid exposure.

In this study, Pomeranians with non-illness, generalized alopecia did not exhibit adrenal or pituitary abnormalities, suggesting a breed-specific hormonal pattern as a potential cause rather than a functional adrenal anomaly.

In this case report, a rare instance of ACTH-independent hypercortisolism in a patient with long-standing Addison's disease led to the discovery of an adrenal cortical adenoma, successfully treated with adrenalectomy, underscoring the importance of considering functional adrenal tumors in such atypical biochemical scenarios.

This case study reported that even with improved adrenal androgens and testosterone levels, treating women with AH-PCOS with glucocorticoids did not significantly improve ovulatory function or hirsutism.

In this case study, medical management with trilostane improved clinical signs and normalized serum chemistry in a dog diagnosed with adrenal-dependent hyperadrenocorticism over 80 weeks of treatment.

This study found that stress hormones, particularly CRF, can inhibit hair growth and induce hair loss by affecting human dermal papilla cells and hair follicles, suggesting a functional HPA axis in these cells.

This study showed that the stress hormone CRF inhibits hair growth and induces hair loss by affecting both the proliferation of human dermal papilla cells and hair follicle function.

In this study, stress hormone CRF was found to inhibit hair growth, suggesting that the HPA axis is functional in human dermal papilla cells and contributes to hair loss under stress conditions.

This review discusses the presence of the StAR protein in 17 non-classical steroidogenic tissues, suggesting that advanced detection methods are needed for a complete understanding of its functions in these tissues.

This paper reviews the role of androgens in human skin function and the challenges in developing treatments for androgen-associated disorders, reporting no new experimental results.

In this study, structural and functional brain abnormalities specific to visuospatial and somatosensory processing networks were observed in patients with anorexia nervosa, highlighting a critical role for the precuneus.

This study found that alcohol dependence is associated with altered HPA axis functioning, with AD patients showing higher hair cortisol concentrations and reduced ACTH and cortisol levels, irrespective of childhood maltreatment history.

This study found that chronic stress may inhibit hair follicle growth and melanogenesis in mice through modulation of the central HPA axis, with C57BL/6 mice appearing most sensitive to these effects.

This review highlights the multifaceted roles of skin in immune and endocrine functions, stressing its contributions to psycho-immunological and psycho-endocrine responses, but presents no new research findings.

This study found a weak negative correlation between inhaled corticosteroid dose and hair cortisol levels in children with asthma, suggesting that hair cortisol measurement may reflect adrenal function in these children.

This review article summarizes findings that suggest natural products may help treat skin inflammation related to abnormal hormone secretion by the adrenal gland, as they can inhibit inflammation pathways and promote wound healing.

This case study reports that immunotherapy with ipilimumab and nivolumab induced hypophysitis in a patient with renal cell carcinoma, emphasizing the need for careful monitoring of endocrine function in such treatments.

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is mainly caused by enzyme deficiencies, leading to varying symptoms like hormone imbalances and physical changes.

This review highlights that children with adrenal disorders may experience neurological and psychiatric symptoms, with potential long-term cognitive and behavioral effects from excess glucocorticoids.

Women's ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens change throughout life, affecting hair loss and health.

This article reviews the types and characteristics of adrenal cortex tumors, including their hormone secretion and detection as incidental findings, but presents no new research results.

Finasteride reduces hair loss and treats BPH without major hormone changes, but may cause sexual dysfunction.
