research Shorter CAG Repeats in the Androgen Receptor Gene May Enhance Hyperandrogenicity in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Shorter CAG repeats in a specific gene may increase male hormone activity and symptoms like acne and excess hair in women with PCOS.
research Filamin A Mediates Wound Closure by Promoting Elastic Deformation and Maintenance of Tension in the Collagen Matrix
Testosterone may worsen hair loss by affecting hair growth signals, while different prostaglandins can either hinder or promote hair growth.
research The Use of Testosterone After Menopause
Testosterone therapy can improve sexual satisfaction and mood in surgically menopausal women when used with estrogen, but its long-term safety and effects on naturally menopausal and premenopausal women are unclear.
research Testosterone-Secreting Adrenal Adenoma Containing Crystalloids of Reinke in an Adult Female Patient
Leydig cells can cause testosterone-secreting adrenal tumors in women.
research Androgen Insufficiency in Women: Diagnostic and Therapeutic Implications
Testosterone replacement can help women with low libido and mood, but they need to have enough estrogen first to avoid side effects.
research Androgen Action in the Ovary
Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.
research The Role of Androgens in Hormone Replacement Therapy
Androgen therapy can help with symptoms like low libido in women, but more research is needed to understand its long-term safety and effects on health.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome Associated with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (Testicular Feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Use of Insulin-Sensitizing Agents in Patients With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Insulin-sensitizing drugs like metformin can help with ovulation, weight loss, and lower testosterone in some women with PCOS.
research A Study on Clinical Correlation with Hyperinsulinemia in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
High insulin levels are more common and a better predictor of carbohydrate issues in women with PCOS than glucose tolerance tests.
research The Role of Androgen Therapy
Testosterone therapy can help women with androgen deficiency by improving energy, sex drive, and bone health with few side effects.
research Menstrual Disorders in Adolescents
The document concludes that early recognition and treatment of PCOS in adolescents is crucial for managing symptoms and long-term health risks.
research The Glucocorticoid Resistance Syndrome: Two Cases of a Novel Pathogenic Variant in the Glucocorticoid Receptor Gene
A new gene variant causes glucocorticoid resistance in a mother and son.
research Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: The Androgenized Adolescent
The document concludes that PCOS in adolescents is complex and requires comprehensive care to manage its symptoms and associated health risks.
research Structure of Human Type II 5 Alpha-Reductase Gene
The human type II 5α-reductase gene has a specific structure important for understanding certain medical conditions.
research Screening for Abnormal Glucose Metabolism in Adolescents with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Teens with PCOS have a higher risk of type 2 diabetes and need regular glucose checks.
research Effect of Phlebotomy Versus Oral Contraceptives Containing Cyproterone Acetate on Clinical and Biochemical Parameters in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Blood removal and birth control pills both helped with hormone levels in women with PCOS, but birth control was better for regular periods and blood removal had fewer side effects.
research Influence of Genotype and Hyperandrogenism on Sexual Function in Women With Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Women with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia experience more sexual dysfunction and distress.
research Novel Insights Into the Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance and Hypersensitivity Syndromes
Genetic defects in the glucocorticoid receptor gene can cause conditions with abnormal sensitivity to stress hormones, and other factors may also affect this sensitivity.
research The Value of the Free Androgen Index Depends on the Phenotype of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Single-Centre Experience
The free androgen index varies among women with different types of PCOS.
research Consequences of Steroid-5α-Reductase Deficiency and Inhibition in Vertebrates
Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
research Elevated Fasting Insulin Is Associated With Cardiovascular and Metabolic Risk in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
High fasting insulin levels in women with PCOS are linked to a higher risk of heart and metabolic problems.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions During Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research Agaricus Subrufescens Ameliorates Ovarian Dysfunction and Regulates Altered Biochemical Parameters in Rats with Letrozole-Induced Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Agaricus subrufescens improves ovarian function and biochemical health in rats with PCOS.
research Persistent Poor Metabolic Profile in Postmenopausal Women With Ovarian Hyperandrogenism After Testosterone Level Normalization
Postmenopausal women with hyperandrogenism didn't have better metabolic health even after their testosterone levels became normal.
research Acne-Associated Gynecological Diseases and Risk Factors in Multiethnic Women
Hormonal changes and conditions like polycystic ovarian syndrome are major causes of adult acne in women, with varying prevalence among different ethnicities.
research Sexuality in Premature Ovarian Insufficiency
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) can harm women's sexual health, and they may benefit from hormone therapy and counseling.
research Long-Term Dutasteride Therapy in Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Alters Glucose and Lipid Profiles and Increases Severity of Erectile Dysfunction
Long-term use of dutasteride for enlarged prostate may worsen blood sugar, cholesterol, and erectile dysfunction.
