Eating cream can increase ovarian androgen production in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, which is not related to obesity.

Birth control pills increase certain receptor activities in female gerbil prostate glands and can lead to prostate changes.

A new mutation linked to partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome and prostate cancer was found in a patient unhappy with their female gender assignment.

Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.

Researchers developed reliable models to predict how well certain compounds bind to androgen receptors, emphasizing the importance of atomic electronegativity.

Women with keloid scars often have acne and hair loss, especially those with "true" keloids, indicating a possible hormonal imbalance.

PCOS may be influenced by factors in the blood, not just the ovaries.

A postmenopausal woman's facial redness, acne, and excess hair were caused by too much hormone therapy for insomnia, but improved after stopping the treatment.

Free fatty acids may increase androgen production, potentially contributing to polycystic ovary syndrome.

Androgen lowering medications don't significantly change HCV-related liver cancer risk in men.

The report concludes that PCOS is mainly a condition of excess male hormones and its definition may change as new information is discovered.

Experts recommend using evidence-based methods to diagnose and treat hirsutism, focusing on symptoms and underlying causes.

Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.

Men's sensitivity to male hormones might affect how severe COVID-19 gets for them.

Hirsutism is more linked to high androgen levels than acne or hair loss, and a mix of hormonal tests is best for diagnosis; certain treatments can reduce symptoms.

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

Certain genetic variations in the AR and ERβ genes can affect androgen levels in women.

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

Evaluate postmenopausal women with high androgen levels using medical history, physical exams, lab tests, and imaging to manage health risks.

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

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

The conclusion is that androgen receptor gene polymorphism might be a marker for polycystic ovary syndrome, but more research is needed.

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

Finasteride for hair loss has minimal impact on sexual function.

Higher BMI links to worse hair loss in Taiwanese men.

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.

Androgen Deprivation Therapy for prostate cancer often reduces sexual function but intermittent therapy may be more tolerable.
