Young women with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia may experience worse sexual function and mild depression compared to healthy women.

Bald men may have a lower risk of testicular cancer.

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.

The document emphasizes the need for surgeons to stay updated with the latest hair restoration and removal techniques and introduces new, essential information in the field.

Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.

The enzyme 17β-HSD type 2 mainly performs oxidation in human sebaceous glands, which may help protect against acne.

Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.

Young women with diffuse hair loss may have low SHBG levels, which could lead to more active testosterone and contribute to their hair loss.

Hirsutism, excessive hair growth in women, is often caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome and is treated by targeting the cause, lifestyle changes, and medication.

Finasteride treatment changes brain steroid levels and receptors, affecting brain function even after stopping treatment.

Testosterone can both promote hair growth and cause baldness by affecting hair growth signals.

PF-05314882 selectively activates androgen receptors without much effect on prostate and may help in prostate cancer treatment and hair loss prevention.

Obese women with PCOS show a male-like pattern in certain fat tissue gene expressions.

The conclusion is that while oral contraceptive pills are effective for PCOS-related high androgen levels, new treatments with fewer side effects are needed.

Longer GGN repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.

The document concluded that FDA-approved treatments like minoxidil and finasteride are effective for hair loss, while the effectiveness of natural remedies and other non-approved treatments is not well-supported by evidence.

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

Researchers found a new gene area linked to male-pattern baldness, which, along with another gene, significantly increases the risk of hair loss in men.

Adjusting minoxidil dosage may be safer than using bicalutamide for hair loss in women.

Scientists found new nonsteroidal compounds that can act like natural male hormones and might help treat male fertility and hormone issues.

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

The same hormone can affect gene expression differently in various tissues, which could lead to new treatments for conditions like hair loss.

Men have worse COVID-19 outcomes than women due to genetic and hormonal differences.

Testosterone, progesterone, and levonorgestrel change enzyme levels related to fat production in hamster skin, which could affect skin oil and acne.
