    Glossary Androgen-Mediated Cutaneous Disorders

    skin conditions influenced by male hormones like testosterone

    Androgen-Mediated Cutaneous Disorders are skin conditions influenced by androgens, which are male hormones like testosterone. These disorders include acne, hirsutism (excessive hair growth), and androgenetic alopecia (pattern hair loss). They occur because androgens can affect the skin's oil production, hair growth, and hair loss patterns.
