Finasteride helps induce ovulation in nonresponder PCOS women.

This scoping review suggests there is a relationship between polycystic ovarian syndrome and vaginal microbiome dysbiosis, potentially linked to decreased Lactobacillus and increased pathogenic species.

This study suggests that vitamin D treatment may be less effective in reducing thyroid autoimmunity for euthyroid men with early-onset androgenic alopecia compared to other men with autoimmune thyroiditis.

This study concluded that among men with normal testosterone levels, a small increase in serum dihydrotestosterone may reduce symptoms of hypogonadism, suggesting its potential diagnostic use after ruling out hypogonadism.

This study found that administering testosterone to pregnant rats altered connexin 26 and connexin 43 expression in the uterus, which could disrupt embryo implantation and cause early pregnancy loss.

This study suggests that lower-dose ethinyl estradiol formulations and progestin-only contraceptives may offer safer options for managing PCOS in obese women due to minimal metabolic effects.

This review found that patients taking antiandrogens, 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors, and spironolactone have an increased risk of developing gynecomastia, potentially due to hormonal changes.

This study found that while testosterone administration reduced myocardial damage in gonadectomized rats after ischemia/reperfusion injury, Finasteride led to greater improvements, whereas 4-hydroxyandrostenedione worsened outcomes.

This study found that dutasteride is not associated with an increased risk of osteoporosis or fractures in older men compared to finasteride, suggesting dutasteride does not adversely affect bone health.

In this study, testosterone and finasteride were found to increase insulin and zinc levels while decreasing chromium levels in male adult rats, suggesting potential effects on the glucose cycle.

This review discusses the roles of glucocorticoid and sex hormone receptors in the skin and their clinical importance, but reports no new research findings.

In this pilot study, finasteride increased testosterone/dihydrotestosterone and progesterone/dihydroprogesterone ratios in normal ovulatory women but did not alter ovulation or gonadotropin secretion.

This study observed that cyclosporine A significantly alters sex hormone levels in both pre- and post-menopausal women with primary biliary cirrhosis.

AGA is a genetic, hormonal hair loss treated with finasteride, minoxidil, and supplements, but new compounds are being developed.

In this study, researchers found that pregnant mice exposed to excessive androgen led to thinner ventricular walls and cardiac hypertrophy in offspring, suggesting that prenatal androgen exposure adversely affects cardiac health through reduced cardiomyocyte proliferation.

This case report describes a 57-year-old woman with hirsutism, hair loss, and vocal changes, who was found to have elevated testosterone levels but normal dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels.

In this study, women with a complete hydatidiform mole had significantly higher pre-evacuation levels of hCG, free testosterone, and DHEA-S compared to controls, which declined after HM evacuation.

The document concludes that sex hormones are crucial for mammalian reproduction, health, and behavior, and require more research for therapeutic use.

This review highlights that while lifestyle changes may help with many ovulatory disorders, oocyte donation is considered a viable option for patients who cannot undergo ovulation induction; it reports no new results.

This review examines the potential role of gut microbiota and its metabolites in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and highlights the growing interest in this area; it reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the prevalence and clinical impact of menstrual abnormalities, acne, and hirsutism in young women with Cushing's syndrome and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, fenugreek seed extract showed significant androgenic and spermatogenic effects in male rats, likely through inhibiting testosterone metabolism, without impacting cardiovascular health.

This study assessed the potential for Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion power in Fiji, finding higher power output and efficiency during summer due to greater temperature differences between surface and deep sea waters.

This review examines the relationship between glycation, insulin resistance, and PCOS, discussing various treatments and highlighting M. oleifera and S. platensis as potential therapeutic agents, but reports no new clinical results.

This review examines the use of natural remedies, including various herbs, for treating polycystic ovary syndrome, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia, 5-alpha reductase inhibitors significantly increased the risk of gynecomastia and breast tenderness compared to placebo or alpha-blockers.

This chapter reviews current and emerging pharmacological treatments for alopecia, noting that the FDA's classification of alopecia as a cosmetic disease has limited drug development and led to off-label use of potentially dangerous compounds.

This investigation found that certain supplements, particularly whey protein isolate, growth hormones, and anabolic steroids, can negatively impact hair loss by affecting biochemical pathways.

This article discusses the potential of acupuncture as a complementary or alternative therapy for PCOS, highlighting experimental evidence of its positive effects on reproductive and metabolic function, but reports no new clinical results.

This chapter reviews various types of aromatic compounds and provides references, but reports no new experimental results.
