The new compounds may be more effective and cheaper than current treatments for conditions like baldness.

This review discusses developments in oral contraceptives, highlighting improved individualization, reduced side effects, and enhanced suitability for various women's health needs, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the clinical use of anti-androgen medications and highlights emerging evidence supporting plant-derived anti-androgens like spearmint tea for managing PCOS, but reports no new clinical results.

In this animal study, rats given high doses of ethynylestradiol showed dose-related estrogenic effects, delayed tumor onset in females, and no overall increase in tumor incidence compared to controls.

In this study, hirsute women treated with cyproterone acetate and ethinyloestradiol experienced significant reductions in sebum secretion and hair growth after several months.

In this study, 4-substituted N-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3-oxo-4-androstene-17.beta.-carboxamides were synthesized and evaluated in vitro as potential 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors and antiandrogens.

This article discusses the role of estrogens in skin aging and reports no new findings; it highlights the potential of selective ER modulators to improve skin health without systemic side effects.

Researchers developed a method to detect hormone-blocking drugs in wastewater and found them in Beijing's sewage, suggesting they can survive sewage treatment.

This study reported that alopecia is a common but often underreported side effect of endocrine-based cancer therapies, with tamoxifen showing the highest incidence of hair loss among analyzed treatments.

This study in identical twin males with androgenetic alopecia found that dutasteride significantly improved hair growth compared to placebo over one year.

This study found that Transcutol P significantly enhanced the skin penetration of Finasteride in vitro, while cationic and anionic surfactants did not show such effects.

In this study, BPA rapidly increased dendritic spine and synapse densities in cultured rat hippocampal neurons, with involvement of estrogen receptors and ERK1/2 and p38 pathways, but disrupted dihydrotestosterone's effects on synaptic plasticity.

This study found that treatment with the pure antiandrogen Flutamide did not affect the estrous cycle or plasma levels of most hormones in female rats, supporting its potential use for treating hirsutism, acne, and alopecia in women.

This case report describes an 11-year-old girl who experienced hot flashes and menarche after taking a Serenoa repens supplement for telogen effluvium, suggesting a possible but uncertain link between the supplement and hormonal changes.

In this study, researchers developed a sensitive assay to measure the inhibition of steroid 5-α reductase (5AR) by chemicals like finasteride and dutasteride, revealing species-specific differences in inhibitor efficacy between human and fish cell lines.

Sex hormones might influence bladder cancer development, and aromatase inhibitors could increase risk in postmenopausal women.

This review discusses the phytochemical, pharmacological, and medicinal properties of Hibiscus rosa sinensis Linn. and reports no new clinical findings.

This study suggests that dietary decanoic acid may manage hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance in PCOS, as observed in animal and cell model experiments.

This study identified that transgender patients face barriers in accessing oral healthcare, including discrimination and harassment, leading to increased stress, poorer oral health, and a diminished quality of life related to oral health.

Hormonal treatments can help with hair loss, acne, and excess hair growth, but it takes 3-6 months to see results and patients should know the possible side effects.

This study formulated and evaluated a Hibiscus rosa-sinensis herbal gel, identifying a 20% concentration as superior in physical properties, suggesting its potential as an alternative drug delivery system.

The document concludes that various drugs for men's health issues are in development, with treatments for sexual dysfunction and prostate conditions being the most advanced.

This study found that estradiol and other sex steroids reduced the capture of monocytes by human endothelial cells in vitro, potentially inhibiting the formation of atherosclerosis by promoting nCAM polysialylation, which interferes with leukocyte tethering to the vascular endothelium.

This study found that the anticonvulsant effects of progesterone against PTZ-induced seizures in mice require conversion to allopregnanolone, as shown by the reversal of these effects with a 5alpha-reductase inhibitor.

This study found that a human relevant potency threshold for estrogen receptor alpha agonism may serve as a health-protective screening tool, and highlights inference performance as essential for scientific confidence frameworks.

This study found that testosterone is converted to estrogenic steroids in vitro without aromatase involvement, suggesting that combining 5α-reductase and aromatase inhibitors might reduce estrogenic steroids more completely in vivo.

This source outlines various antiandrogen and androgen inhibitor drugs used to treat cutaneous disorders of hyperandrogenism, detailing their mechanisms, uses, dosages, and side effects, with emphasis on spironolactone, finasteride, dutasteride, and oral contraceptives.

In this study, researchers found that finasteride inhibits progesterone synthesis by blocking cholesterol side-chain cleavage in mouse-derived MA-10 Leydig cells, but this effect may not be evident in human or rat cells.

This retrospective study found that cyproterone acetate, both alone and with estrogens, was safe, well tolerated, and induced modest feminizing effects in late-pubertal transgender female adolescents.
