A 15-year-old girl with no menstrual period was diagnosed with a genetic condition that makes her body unable to respond to male hormones, leading to female characteristics despite having male genetic makeup.

A 13-year-old girl's masculine symptoms improved after surgery for a rare adrenal tumor that produced male hormones.

A woman's masculine features were caused by a rare ovarian tumor that produced male hormones.

Removing the ovarian tumor improved the woman's hormonal symptoms.

Dexamethasone increases androgen receptor activity in scalp cells, which might explain stress-related hair loss.

New compounds were made and tested, with compound 6 showing potential for treating prostate-related diseases.

The authors maintain that shorter androgen receptor alleles may lead to milder COVID-19 by positively affecting the immune response, not due to changes in testosterone levels or activity.

The androgen receptor gene doesn't affect women with recurrent spontaneous abortions, but having a mutant genotype might protect against it.

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.

A new easy-to-use biosensor was made to detect androgen receptor mRNA, which could help diagnose related conditions quickly.

Androgens increase norepinephrine release, promoting smooth muscle growth in male sex organs, which may contribute to benign prostatic hypertrophy.

Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.

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

A 31-year-old woman was diagnosed with Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome much later than usual, leading to a call for earlier detection and treatment guidelines.

A 12-year-old boy with PAIS successfully developed male characteristics using high-dose testosterone and anastrozole.

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

Male hormones can decrease the ability of immune cells to fight bacteria.

Swedish men with the E213 A-allele of the androgen receptor have a lower risk of prostate cancer.

Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.

The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.

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.

Gene mutations can cause problems in male genital development.

A woman's excessive hair growth and high testosterone were caused by a rare ovarian tumor, which was successfully treated with surgery.

Ovarian steroid cell tumors should be considered in adults with hirsutism and high testosterone, with surgery as the main treatment.

Androgen levels do not determine the type of PCOS symptoms in young females.

Increased androgen receptor expression in certain hair follicle areas may cause male pattern baldness.

Certain gene variations and irregular X chromosome activity may contribute to hair loss in women who can have children.

Certain genes and X chromosome patterns may significantly contribute to the development of hair loss.

The research found that androgens help control blood flow in the rat prostate through a specific binding site.
