research Complementary Therapies for Idiopathic Hirsutism: Topical Licorice as a Promising Option
Adding licorice gel to laser treatment is more effective for reducing facial hair than laser alone.
research Androgens Induce Sebaceous Differentiation in Sebocyte Cells Expressing a Stable Functional Androgen Receptor
Androgens cause oil-producing skin cells with androgen receptors to mature and produce more oil.
research Circulating Androgen Levels Before and After Oophorectomy in Premenopausal and Postmenopausal Women
Oophorectomy lowers testosterone and estrogen levels in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women, with postmenopausal women still producing significant testosterone.
research Laparoscopic Adrenalectomy: A Cure for Male Pattern Baldness
Removing a hormone-producing adrenal tumor can stop hair loss in women with high testosterone levels.
research Potential Targets in the Discovery of New Hair Growth Promoters for Androgenic Alopecia
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.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture Depending on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands, and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research New Target for Minoxidil in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Minoxidil may work for hair loss by reducing androgen sensitivity and altering hormone-related enzymes.
research Unusual Case of Hirsutism From Prolactinoma Induced Dihydrotestosterone Elevation
A woman's excessive hair growth was linked to a rare case of high testosterone caused by a prolactin-producing pituitary tumor.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in the Human Hair Follicle Concentrates in the Dermal Papilla
The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.
research Androgen Actions on the Human Hair Follicle: Perspectives
Androgens have complex effects on hair growth, promoting it in some areas but causing hair loss in others, and our understanding of this is still evolving.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.

Finasteride helps treat skin issues like acne and baldness by blocking testosterone conversion.
research Hormonal Treatment for Skin Androgen-Related Disorders
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.
