Caesalpinia bonduc seed extracts may help treat enlarged prostate in rats.
research Improvement of Androgenic Alopecia by Extracellular Vesicles Secreted from Hyaluronic Acid-Stimulated Induced Mesenchymal Stem Cells
HA-stimulated stem cell vesicles improved hair growth in male mice with androgenetic alopecia.
research Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Androgen Receptor and Nerve Structure Density in Human Prepuce from Patients with Persistent Sexual Side Effects after Finasteride Use for Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride, a hair loss drug, may cause long-term sexual side effects due to changes in hormone receptor levels.
research Inhibition of Hair Growth by Testosterone in the Presence of Dermal Papilla Cells from the Frontal Bald Scalp of the Postpubertal Stumptailed Macaque
Testosterone can slow down hair growth when combined with certain cells from bald scalps, and this effect can be blocked by an androgen receptor blocker.
research Iatrogenic Androgenetic Alopecia in a Male Phenotype 46XX True Hermaphrodite
Hormone treatment caused hair loss, finasteride helped regrowth.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Novel Adenosine Triphosphate-Binding Cassette, Subfamily A, Member 12 Mutations Associated with Congenital Ichthyosiform Erythroderma
New ABCA12 gene mutations were linked to a skin condition with scaling and hair loss, and a treatment helped with hair loss in a related case.
research Pharmacological and Phytochemical Updates on Citrullus Colocynthis and Citrullus Lanatus
Citrullus colocynthis and Citrullus lanatus have potential health benefits but may also cause reproductive toxicity.
research Hirsutism
Hirsutism is too much hair growth in women like the pattern in men, often caused by high male hormones, and can be treated with hormone control and hair removal methods.
research The Safety of Testosterone Therapy in Women
Testosterone therapy seems safe for short-term use in postmenopausal women with low sexual desire, but more research on long-term effects is needed.
research Antiandrogenic Activity of Riboflavin 5′-Phosphate (FMN) in 22Rv1 and LNCaP Human Prostate Cancer Cell Lines
Riboflavin 5′-phosphate (FMN) shows potential for treating androgen-related conditions but may be limited in treating prostate cancer.
research Antiandrogenic Therapy With Finasteride Attenuates Cardiac Hypertrophy and Left Ventricular Dysfunction
