A protein called FGF9 helps regenerate hair follicles in mice after skin damage, and increasing FGF9 could potentially help human hair growth.

Spironolactone is a low-cost, effective, and generally safe treatment for various skin conditions related to hormones.

Spironolactone can reduce hair growth in women with hirsutism.

Glucocorticoids and sex hormones affect skin health, with potential for targeted treatments to minimize side effects and treat skin conditions.

The more lipophilic the progesterone derivative, the better it binds to androgen receptors and has antiandrogenic effects.

Using two drugs together, Flutamide and 4-MA, is more effective for blocking male hormones than using each one alone.

Antiandrogens are the main treatment for hirsutism, with individualized care and safe, affordable options needed.

Sex steroids, especially progesterone, can slow down the growth of mouse melanoma cells.

Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might decrease the risk. AST also lessens the chance of cancer coming back but doesn't really affect survival rates. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits for different bladder cancers.

Antibody treatments show promise for hair loss but need more research.

New treatments for PCOS focus on insulin resistance and reducing testosterone levels, along with traditional hormone therapies.

Hormone therapy for prostate cancer can increase heart risks, especially in men with heart conditions.

Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might reduce it. AST decreases recurrence-free survival but doesn't affect overall survival or progression-free survival. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits.

Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.

Hormonal treatments can help with hair loss, acne, and excess hair growth, but it takes 3-6 months to see results and patients should know the possible side effects.

Sex hormones may affect COVID-19 severity, with estrogen possibly reducing risk and testosterone potentially increasing it.

Adenosine may promote hair growth by increasing FGF-7 levels in dermal papilla cells.

Certain HSD3B1 gene types are linked to worse prostate cancer outcomes and affect treatment response and other health conditions.

5-alpha reductase inhibitors might worsen lung recovery in COVID-19 patients, suggesting a pause in their use.

The document concludes that research on sulfatase inhibitors should continue due to their potential in treating various diseases, despite some clinical trial failures.

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

A new compound with strong antiandrogenic effects was found, potentially useful for treating conditions like acne and prostate cancer.

Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.

Chlormadinone acetate is a strong, well-tolerated hormone used in birth control and hormone therapy with benefits for menstrual pain and skin conditions.

Spironolactone helps regrow hair in women with hair loss.

Cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol is generally more effective in treating hirsutism, but consider side effects and patient characteristics.

Androgen self-administration might be controlled by membrane receptors, not nuclear ones.

Allopregnanolone is needed for certain brain processing issues caused by D1 dopamine receptor activation.

Thyroid hormones and androgens affect gene expression in frog reproductive organs differently between males and females.

Dexamethasone affects hair growth by altering levels of proteins that either promote or inhibit hair follicle growth.
