Five new mutations in the androgen receptor gene were found, helping to understand androgen insensitivity syndrome better.

Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).

Too much male hormone is the main cause of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.

Testosterone replacement may help some postmenopausal women with symptoms like fatigue and low libido, but more research is needed to fully understand its effects.

E211 G>A gene linked to lower risk of severe prostate cancer and hair loss.

Genetic differences may affect COVID-19 deaths; anti-androgens could be potential treatment.

Women with PCOS have higher androgen levels that decrease with age but are still higher than in women without PCOS.

Hair sensitivity to androgens is partly controlled by specific enzyme expressions in different hair areas.

Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.

The balance between androgen receptor and p53 is crucial for sebaceous gland differentiation.

Testosterone replacement can help women with low libido and mood, but they need to have enough estrogen first to avoid side effects.

Steroidogenesis inhibitors change but don't stop androgen production in prostate cancer.

The length of the CAG repeat in the androgen receptor gene affects the risk and progression of prostate cancer, BPH, infertility, and undermasculinized genitalia.

The research found that anovulatory young women have higher androgen and hormone levels than those who ovulate, suggesting immature hormonal regulation rather than a specific condition.

Use "female pattern hair loss" term, assess androgen excess, treat with minoxidil and other medications if needed.

Testosterone helps beard and axillary hair cells grow by releasing growth factors from dermal papilla cells.

Longer CAG repeat lengths in the androgen receptor gene are linked to higher testosterone levels in women with PCOS.

Androgen is important in controlling stem cell differentiation, reducing fat development, and increasing lean mass.

Shorter CAG repeats in a specific gene may increase male hormone activity and symptoms like acne and excess hair in women with PCOS.

Testosterone therapy can improve sexual desire and function in postmenopausal women but should be used cautiously and not based solely on testosterone levels.

Taking spironolactone and linestrenol for androgen excess can lead to lower bone density in young women.

Men with hair loss have more DNA changes in back-of-head hair follicles, possibly protecting them from thinning.

Androgens, male hormones, play a role in both men and women's health, and testosterone therapy can help women with low levels, but it's not suitable for pregnant or lactating women, or those with certain conditions.

New androgen receptor modulators show promise for treating diseases like prostate cancer and muscle wasting.

African American men with prostate cancer have more androgen receptor mutations, which may lead to more aggressive cancer compared to Caucasian American men.

Oophorectomy lowers testosterone and estrogen levels in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women, with postmenopausal women still producing significant testosterone.

A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.

The book explains how excess male hormones can affect various conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Cushing's disease.

Testosterone therapy can help improve mood, sexual function, and bone health in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed to establish safe and effective guidelines.

Taking cyproterone acetate and ethinyl oestradiol for hair loss can lower vitamin B12 levels in women.
