Ketoconazole increases finasteride's effectiveness and lifespan in the body.

Testosterone conversion to 5α-DHT may not be essential for its effects on the skin.

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

Flutamide, an antiandrogen, has minimal impact on female rat endocrine systems and does not significantly change their reproductive cycles.

The treatment reduced hair growth and testosterone in women with excess hair and had some effects on stress responses.

Two finasteride tablet types are equally effective and can be swapped.

Finasteride causes sperm production decrease in Mesocricetus auratus.

Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.

5α-reductase inhibitors and alpha-1 adrenergic antagonists together effectively treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, with long-term benefits.

Flutamide effectively reduced excessive hair growth and improved related symptoms in hirsutism patients without significant side effects.

DHEA stimulates skin oil glands and could help postmenopausal women, with potential for acne and excessive hair growth treatments.

Topical finasteride and flutamide reduce gland size and enzyme activity, with flutamide being more potent, potentially treating acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia.

The study found that two enzymes linked to hair loss are located in different parts of the scalp, supporting a common treatment's effectiveness.

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

Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.

Different types of androgens bind differently to two receptors, AR1 and AR2, in Atlantic croaker's brain and ovarian tissues, suggesting these receptors may control different androgen actions in fish.

Finasteride blocks progesterone's effect on absence seizures in rats.

Testosterone and some of its forms can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in skin.

The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.

Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.

Excessive hair growth in women often has no known cause and is not linked to race or other hormonal symptoms.

Eating high-glycemic and dairy foods can increase hormones that may cause acne and other health issues.

The document concludes that using LC-MS/MS for measuring androgens is more accurate than older methods, but it needs careful validation and standardized references to be most effective.

A postmenopausal woman's hair loss and excess hair growth improved after surgery for ovarian hyperthecosis.

New genes and pathways are important for testosterone production and male sexual development.

Minocycline may cause hair loss by increasing DHT levels, but finasteride can help counteract this effect.
