The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.

Male genital development is driven by androgen signaling and understanding it could help address congenital anomalies.

NcoA4 may have roles beyond helping control gene activity, possibly affecting cell behavior and stability.

A teenage girl with high androgen levels and PCOS developed a rare liver tumor, suggesting a possible link between high androgens and the tumor's growth.

Ganoderma lucidum may help treat prostate cancer by blocking male hormones and slowing cancer cell growth.

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

Researchers found new potential treatments for conditions related to the androgen receptor, like male hormonal contraception, by testing thousands of compounds.

Testosterone significantly affects sexual desire in both men and women, but its impact on women is more complex and influenced by psychological factors.

The document concludes that treating androgen excess needs patience, managing expectations is important, and many drugs used are not officially approved, suggesting cosmetic options for mild cases.

Researchers created immortal human skin cells with constant testosterone receptor activity to study hair loss and test treatments.

Understanding how androgens work is key for creating new treatments for prostate issues and hair/skin conditions.

Excess androgens may cause PCOS, not just be a symptom.

The document concludes that treating female hair loss should target reducing excess androgen and blocking its effects on hair follicles, with the best treatments being hormonal therapy, adrenal suppression, and topical minoxidil.

5α‐reductase isozymes are crucial for prostate development and health, and targeting them can help prevent and treat prostate issues.

The conclusion is that removing both ovaries is the best treatment for excess male hormones in postmenopausal women, with medication as another option, and managing insulin resistance is important for diagnosis and treatment.

New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.

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

Short-term finasteride treatment may lower some cell death factors in prostate cancer cells.

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.

Stauntonia hexaphylla extract can help treat hair loss by blocking certain hormones.

Hormonal interactions, especially involving DHT and estrogen, play a key role in BPH development and treatment.

Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.

Low androgen levels might delay prostate cancer but could lead to more aggressive, therapy-resistant cancers.

Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.

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 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.

The conclusion is that accurately identifying the cause of high androgen levels in women with PCOS is crucial and requires specific tests.

The over-the-counter supplement DHEA could make COVID-19 worse, especially in diabetics and people with G6PD deficiency.

Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.

Human sebaceous glands contain enzymes that affect androgen production and may influence sebum production and acne.
