120-150 / 465 resultsresearch Androgenetic Alopecia
Minoxidil was promising for treating male and female pattern baldness in 1994, but more research on genetics and other treatments was needed.
research Intracrine Androgen Biosynthesis, Metabolism, and Action Revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists Medical Guidelines for Clinical Practice for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Hyperandrogenic Disorders
The guidelines help doctors diagnose and treat hormone-related disorders in women.
research Clinical Biochemistry of Dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
research Treatment Options for Androgenetic Alopecia: Efficacy, Side Effects, Compliance, Financial Considerations, and Ethics
Combination therapies for androgenetic alopecia work best but can have significant side effects and costs.
research Molecular Basis of Androgenetic Alopecia
research Alcohol and Prostate Cancer: Time to Draw Conclusions
Drinking a lot of alcohol increases the risk of prostate cancer and can worsen the condition.
research The Relationship Between Acne and Other Hyperandrogenism Signs
Acne is strongly linked to high BMI, hair loss, menstrual issues, family history, and eating too many sweets and fatty foods, but not to excessive hair growth.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Review and Emerging Treatments
Hair loss, known as Androgenetic Alopecia, is often caused by hormones and can be diagnosed using noninvasive techniques. Treatments include topical minoxidil and oral finasteride, with new treatments being explored. There may also be a link between this type of hair loss and heart disease risk.
research Endocrinology
The document concludes that inflammation markers can be used in diabetes, vitamin D3 affects immune pathways, hyperthyroidism changes hormone levels, androgen levels help diagnose Adrenocortical Carcinoma, erectile dysfunction is linked to diabetes, hypogonadism is common in HIV-infected males, and hormones can be biomarkers for various conditions.
research The Effect of Drugs on Hair
Drugs can change hair growth and this is important because it can upset people.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
research Androgen Dependence of Hirsutism, Acne, and Alopecia in Women
Hirsutism is more linked to high androgen levels than acne or hair loss, and a mix of hormonal tests is best for diagnosis; certain treatments can reduce symptoms.
research Simultaneous Quantitation of Nine Hydroxy-Androgens and Their Conjugates in Human Serum by Stable Isotope Dilution Liquid Chromatography Electrospray Ionization Tandem Mass Spectrometry
A new method accurately measures nine specific hormones in human blood.
research Androgen Metabolism in Hirsute Patients Treated with Cyproterone Acetate
Cyproterone acetate effectively reduced hair growth in hirsute patients by lowering androgen levels and altering androgen metabolism.
research The Influence of Androgens on Insulin Resistance
Higher levels of unbound testosterone are linked to increased insulin resistance, especially in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Sebocytes Are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research Advances in Knowledge of Androgens: How Intentional and Accidental Neurosteroid Changes Inform Us of Their Action and Role
Finasteride can have lasting negative effects on brain function and behavior by disrupting neurosteroid production.
research 5α-Reductase Type 2 Gene Variant Associations with Prostate Cancer Risk, Circulating Hormone Levels, and Androgenetic Alopecia
Gene variant linked to prostate cancer, hormone levels, and hair loss.
research The Clinical Development of a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, Finasteride
Finasteride effectively treats BPH, but needs more trials to understand potential.
research Oral Contraceptives and Cyproterone Acetate in Female Acne Treatment
Birth control pills and cyproterone acetate can help treat acne in women, especially when linked to hormonal issues.
research Revisiting Hyper- and Hypo-Androgenism by Tandem Mass Spectrometry
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.
research Testosterone Metabolism in Human Skin Cells In Vitro and Its Interaction with Estradiol and Dutasteride
Different skin cells process testosterone differently, and certain drugs can change this process, possibly helping treat acne and hair loss.
research Relations Between Sex Hormone Levels and Characteristics of Hair and Skin in Healthy Young Men
Higher androgen levels do not cause baldness in men.
research The Direct Inhibitory Effect of Dutasteride or Finasteride on Androgen Receptor Activity Is Cell Line Specific
Dutasteride and finasteride affect different cell types differently.
research Androgens’ Effects Across the Lifespan in Men and Animal Models
Androgens, male hormones, affect physical and mental functions, with a decrease leading to health issues like muscle loss, bone disease, and depression, and more research is needed on long-term effects and treatments.
research Androgen Biosynthetic Pathways in the Human Prostate
DHT in the human prostate is produced through multiple pathways, not just from testosterone.
research The Human Skin as a Hormone Target and an Endocrine Gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Hirsutism: A Comprehensive Update of Embryology, Aetiopathogenesis, and Therapeutic Approach
The document concluded that more research is needed to understand how estrogen affects the enzyme involved in hirsutism development.
