January 1990 in “Insula-revista De Letras Y Ciencias Humanas” This review reports that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have a 28%-50% higher risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and more severe COVID-19 outcomes, linked to underlying metabolic and endocrine factors.
This study found that abnormal carbohydrate metabolism linked to increased serum fasting insulin levels is associated with 20% of women with polycystic ovary syndrome, and these women exhibit more symptoms compared to those with normal insulin levels.
March 2004 in “Current Sexual Health Reports” Testosterone's role in women's sex drive is unclear and needs more research, as low levels don't always mean less sexual interest and high levels can cause side effects.
This study found that measuring glycosylated keratin levels in hair can estimate the onset timing of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus after a prolonged latent phase, but not as reliably for noninsulin-dependent diabetes due to longer latency and hair length limitations.
September 2025 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This study found that Hashimoto's thyroiditis and alopecia areata show distinct gut microbial patterns, with specific microbes like Bacteroides fragilis and Microbacterium sp. T32 potentially linked to autoimmune activity.

July 2008 in “International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics” This study found that medroxyprogesterone acetate treatment in women with PCOS reduced hyperandrogenism-related hormonal levels and improved skin conditions without affecting lipid or carbohydrate metabolism.
October 2016 in “Rossiiskii Zhurnal Kozhnykh i Venericheskikh Boleznei” In this study, women with androgenetic alopecia showed abnormalities in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, and treatment with metformin improved clinical outcomes.
6 citations
,
January 2021 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This study suggests that finasteride treatment in male rats can lead to changes in liver carbohydrate metabolism and may result in metabolic disruptions and liver steatosis in their offspring.
