Testosterone and its metabolites have varied effects on different body systems, especially during puberty.

Some treatments for hereditary hair loss are effective but vary in results and side effects; new therapies show promise but need more research.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

HA-stimulated stem cell vesicles improved hair growth in male mice with androgenetic alopecia.

Spironolactone is safe for treating female hair loss, but the safety of other drugs is uncertain.

The research found that male pattern hair loss is mostly genetic and involves hair thinning due to hormonal effects and changes in gene expression.

Men with lower 2nd to 4th finger ratios tend to have larger sinus volumes.

Muscles can make their own androgens, which may help muscle growth.

Topical finasteride might be a good alternative for hair loss treatment with fewer side effects, but more research is needed.

Bicalutamide may help treat female pattern hair loss.

Testosterone replacement therapy helps manage deficiency and has various methods, but requires careful monitoring to avoid side effects.

Low-dose flutamide helps reduce excessive hair growth and is even more effective with birth control, without bad effects on blood fats.

RE-ORGA, a Korean herb extract, may help prevent hair loss.

Personalized treatments for hair loss are becoming more effective by using genetic information.

Hair loss in Androgenetic Alopecia is caused by genetics, aging, and lifestyle, leading to hair follicle shrinkage and related health risks.

Long-term use of androgens can help manage Hereditary Angioedema (HAE) but may cause serious side effects, so alternative treatments with fewer side effects are being considered.

High doses of cyproterone acetate increase the risk of brain tumors in women, but the risk decreases after stopping the medication.

Finasteride-treated male rats' offspring had altered glucose metabolism, potentially increasing diabetes risk.

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

Camellia oleifera seed shell polyphenols and 1,3,6-tri-O-galloylglucose can help treat hair loss by reducing certain hormones and promoting hair growth.

Male-pattern hair loss is largely influenced by genetics, with key genes identified.

Too much androgen can cause hair loss; finasteride may help.

Hair loss in women may have causes other than hormones.

The guidelines advise against using testosterone and DHEA in women for most conditions due to safety and effectiveness concerns, but suggest considering testosterone for postmenopausal women with low sexual desire.

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

Androgens, like DHT, affect hair growth and treatments like finasteride may help.

Testosterone treatment effectively causes male physical development in transgender male adolescents but may lead to side effects like acne, higher BMI and blood pressure, lower good cholesterol, and decreased bone density.

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

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

Finasteride doesn't affect bone density in male rats.
