This study found that gonadal dysfunction is very common in premenopausal women with acromegaly and may be caused by hyperprolactinemia, GH/IGF-I excess, or tumor effects.

This review discusses the interplay between epilepsy and reproductive endocrine disorders, examining the factors involved and emphasizing the importance of monitoring but reports no new research findings.

This study found that spironolactone may improve acne and some ovarian functions in patients with irregular menstrual periods and androgenic symptoms, while causing few side effects.

In this study, researchers investigated factors predicting resistance to clomiphene citrate in women with anovulatory PCOS, identifying AMH and SHBG levels as significant indicators, but they found no reliable thresholds for predicting resistance to the standard 50 mg/day dose.

This study found that combining metformin and clomifene citrate improved pregnancy outcomes and reduced miscarriage rates in women with PCOS and infertility undergoing intrauterine insemination.

This article reviews the clinical features, diagnostic criteria, and possible genetic and environmental influences of polycystic ovary syndrome but provides no new research findings.

This review discusses the interplay of hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, obesity, and their role in polycystic ovary syndrome, but presents no new clinical results.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, but reports no new research results.

Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.

This study found that prolonged use of finasteride in women led to altered levels of sex steroids, DNA damage, and increased menstrual bleeding, suggesting adverse health effects without clear benefits for androgenetic alopecia treatment.

In this prospective study of 135 women with hirsutism, researchers reported that treatment approaches varied, with oral contraceptives, dexamethasone, and metformin widely used, and emphasized a holistic approach including lifestyle changes and mental health support to effectively manage the condition.

This study observed that the size of vaginal prolapse in patients was significantly related to both the preoperative vaginal length and the length of vaginal excision during the Michigan four-wall sacrospinous suspension procedure.

This study identified an association between the FTO gene and susceptibility to PCOS, providing the first genetic evidence linking PCOS to obesity.

This study found that ursolic acid at 50 mg/kg improved biochemical, hormonal, and ovarian histopathological markers in a rat model of PCOS, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic option.

This review discusses the role of microglia in mediating prenatal androgen effects on the female brain, potentially contributing to PCOS development and neuroendocrine dysfunctions, but reports no new results.

In this study, researchers found a significant relationship between mid-luteal progesterone levels and 25-hydroxy vitamin D levels in infertile patients, suggesting that about 20 ng/mL of vitamin D may be necessary to trigger ovulation or support progesterone secretion.

This review discusses ethanol-based transethosome vesicles for drug delivery through the skin, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses using human follicular fluid in metabolomic analysis as a diagnostic tool and predictor of success in assisted reproductive technology for PCOS patients, reporting no new results.

In this retrospective review, the author discusses key discoveries in understanding androgen excess disorders like PCOS, focusing on genetic and molecular insights gained from 1965 to 2015.

This study concluded that prepubertal girls with hypertrichosis have androgen receptors with enhanced sensitivity, which may contribute to their increased body hair growth.

This study found that PCOS is common among Iranian women, with phenotypes involving hyperandrogenism exhibiting worse lipid profiles and higher rates of metabolic syndrome compared to healthy women.

This source reports that testosterone therapy may mildly improve sexual desire in women with sexual dysfunction but lacks long-term safety data and cannot be widely recommended, as no formulations are approved for women in most countries.

This review discusses the causes and management of hirsutism, recommending low-dose oral contraceptives with flutamide over cyproterone-containing preparations, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review examines lesser-known factors contributing to polycystic ovarian syndrome and reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research into individualized treatment and prevention strategies.

This study found that while rat models treated with letrozole and dihydrotestosterone exhibit altered sterol, leukotriene, and steroid hormone profiles similar to human PCOS, significant differences remain.

This chapter reviews genetic defects in female sexual differentiation, focusing on 46,XX disorders of sex development and the impact of genetic factors and sex steroids on development, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that weight loss can improve fertility outcomes in overweight and obese women with PCOS, and letrozole should be considered the new first-line treatment over clomiphene citrate for anovulatory infertility in this population.

This article reviews recent data suggesting that metformin may be beneficial for anovulatory PCOS patients with normal BMI and clomiphene resistance but emphasizes that more studies are needed to confirm these findings.

This article reviews congenital adrenal hyperplasia, a group of rare genetic disorders affecting steroid synthesis, and highlights the need for specific therapy and ongoing monitoring, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses how androgens, commonly known for male reproductive roles, also influence the physiology and pathology of the human endometrium, though their exact roles in this tissue remain controversial and not fully understood.
