Adding anti-Müllerian hormone to PCOS criteria lowers the number of women diagnosed.

Many women in southern China have polycystic ovary syndrome, with some symptoms differing from Western women.

Women with PCOS often have hair loss, which is linked to acne or excess body hair but not to worse hormone or metabolic issues.

Scientists have developed a new method to detect steroid abuse in athletes using cell-based tests, which could be the future of anti-doping methods.

Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.

The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.

ERG increases SOX9, promoting prostate cancer growth and invasion.

PNU 157706 is a more effective treatment than finasteride for conditions caused by DHT, like enlarged prostate and hair loss.

The engineered yeast strain BLYAS can quickly and sensitively detect androgenic chemicals.

FCE 28260 is a stronger and longer-lasting inhibitor of 5α-reductase than finasteride, which may make it a better treatment for certain medical conditions.

Scientists made a chemical (compound 4e) that can be applied on skin to reduce oil production, which can help with acne, but it might cause skin sensitivity to light.

Hormones significantly affect women's sexual function, and more research is needed to improve treatments for sexual dysfunction with minimal side effects.

Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.

Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.

The nature of the side chain in RU 58841 derivatives greatly affects its AR affinity, with the N-(iodopropenyl) derivative 13 showing the highest AR binding affinity, suggesting its potential for developing high-affinity radioiodinated AR radioligands.

Acne is an important sign of androgen excess disorders in women.

A compound made by Pfizer can potentially stimulate hair growth and reduce oil production, making it a good candidate for topical use.

The compound (1R,2S)-4-(2-Cyano-cyclohexyl-oxy)-2-trifluoromethyl-benzonitrile can stimulate hair growth and reduce oil production when applied topically.

Scientists created iodinated arylhydantoins and arylthiohydantoins that could potentially be used for imaging prostate cancer. Some versions with specific side-chains showed high potential for this use.

Group a wide range of chemicals, not just phthalates, for assessing risks to male reproductive health.

Finasteride effectively inhibits 5α reductase, while plant extracts like Permixon and Bazoton don't show significant results.

Better hair loss models needed for research.

AGA is a common hair loss affecting both genders, treated with various therapies to promote regrowth and slow thinning.

The new compound was more effective than finasteride in reducing markers of hair loss and prostate issues in cell tests.

Human keratinocytes do not naturally respond to androgens.

Red deer only have androgen receptors in neck hair cells for mane growth during breeding season.

We need better ways to test and understand SARMs to make safer and more effective treatments.

New steroids were effective in blocking male hormone receptors in hamster prostates.

The Endocrine Society advised against routine testosterone therapy for women, citing a need for more research on long-term safety and a clear definition of androgen deficiency.

The conclusion is that managing androgen excess requires long-term treatment, including hormonal contraceptives and androgen blockers, with follow-up after six months.
