Certain genetic variants increase the risk of resistance to hormone therapy in prostate cancer patients.

Different drugs can treat high male hormone levels in women, but they have various effects and some may harm a fetus.

Hirsutism, excessive hair growth in women, is often caused by PCOS and can be managed with medication and personalized treatment plans.

Glucocorticoids and sex hormones affect skin health, with potential for targeted treatments to minimize side effects and treat skin conditions.

Androgens play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness and excessive hairiness.

The review suggests a comprehensive approach to treat hirsutism, focusing on hair removal, medication, and managing emotional effects.

Female pattern hair loss involves thinning hair on crown and frontal scalp, diagnosed by hair ratio, and treated with minoxidil, antiandrogens, or hair transplantation.

Plant extracts like Avicennia marina, Boehmeria nipononivea, and Camellia sinensis could potentially treat hair loss with fewer side effects than synthetic drugs.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

All women with significant unwanted hair growth have hormonal imbalances, often from polycystic ovary syndrome.

Exosomes from stem cells help hair regrowth by activating a specific signaling pathway.

Hirsutism in teens is often due to polycystic ovarian syndrome and needs careful assessment and support.

A specific DNA sequence caused hair loss in male mice by activating immune cells and increasing a certain immune signal.

The document concludes that treatments for female hair loss and excess body hair are available, but managing expectations is important.

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

Most women with excessive hair growth have a hormonal cause.

Spironolactone is an effective and well-tolerated first-line treatment for hidradenitis suppurativa in women.

The conclusion is that oral contraceptives and antiandrogens can treat hirsutism and acne in women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism, but more research is needed for effective treatments, especially for hair loss.

Hair problems are common and distressing for women, but increasing knowledge of treatments offers hope.

A yeast-based test can detect the steroid methyltestosterone in urine longer than traditional methods.

Hair loss in women can be slowed with treatment, but more research needed for better solutions.

DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.

Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.

Occipital hair follicles in male pattern baldness respond uniquely to testosterone, not androgen-insensitive.

Minoxidil may work for hair loss by reducing androgen sensitivity and altering hormone-related enzymes.

The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.

New compounds may soon be tested to treat excessive hair growth in women.

Birth control pills can help reduce mild to moderate acne in women.

Patients with PCOS tend to score their hirsutism higher than clinicians, making self-scoring less useful for diagnosis.

Rat skin takes up and processes testosterone differently than other organs, with testosterone being more important for the skin than its metabolite 5α-DHT.
