Postmenopausal hyperandrogenism, a condition with symptoms like increased hair growth and acne, is usually caused by PCOS but can also be due to other factors. It's diagnosed by checking testosterone levels and treated either by removing the adrenal tumor or through antiandrogen therapy.

Diffuse alopecia in women may be related to androgens and iron deficiency, and basic hormone and nutrient screening is useful.

Current treatments for male pattern baldness include minoxidil and finasteride, with new options being developed.

New genes linked to male pattern baldness were found on chromosome 20p11.

Skin symptoms can indicate endocrine disorders and have various treatments.

The secretome from mesenchymal stromal cells shows promise for improving facial nerve injury treatment.

PCOS treatment should address both symptoms and metabolic risks, starting with lifestyle changes and possibly including medication.

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.

The study found that androgen receptors in skin cells mainly affect the focal adhesion pathway and control the caveolin-1 gene, with implications for new treatments for related diseases.

Hyperthyroidism can hide signs of high androgen levels in females.

A gene called HDAC9 might be a new factor in male-pattern baldness.

Insulin resistance is a key factor in polycystic ovary syndrome, but genetics may also contribute.

4-O-Methylhonokiol helps protect skin cells from growth-stopping effects of a protein by regulating growth-related pathways.

Insulin resistance and obesity are key factors in the development and worsening of polycystic ovary syndrome, and lifestyle changes are important for managing it.

Early diagnosis and treatment of PCOS is crucial to reduce emotional distress and health risks.

Baldness, especially at the front, may lower the risk of testicular cancer by 31%, but its link to prostate cancer is unclear.

PCOS in lean women is a serious health condition with implications beyond fertility, affecting metabolism and increasing cardiovascular disease risk.

The ketogenic diet might improve certain skin conditions, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.

The document concludes that careful history and physical exams are crucial for accurately diagnosing polycystic ovary syndrome and distinguishing it from other similar conditions.

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

Early-onset baldness is linked to genetics, lifestyle, and can indicate higher risk for heart and metabolic diseases, and affects mental health.

A genetic region near the PAX1 gene is linked to a higher risk of scoliosis in females.

Male pattern baldness is mostly inherited, involves many genes, and is linked to other traits like early puberty and strong bones.

High fasting insulin levels in women with PCOS are linked to a higher risk of heart and metabolic problems.

The type of PCOS a woman has doesn't strongly predict her skin or metabolic symptoms; obesity is a more important factor.

The document concludes that hair transplantation and gene therapy may be important for future hair loss treatment.

Bicalutamide improves hair density in women safely.

Hair loss drugs may cause sexual issues and infertility in men.

Preventing hair loss is more effective than regrowth; oral finasteride is a realistic option.

Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair loss, but continued research is needed for better treatments.
