Testosterone therapy aims to treat hormone deficiencies and various conditions safely and effectively, but requires careful patient monitoring due to potential side effects.

This article reviews sebaceous immunobiology and highlights the complex role of sebaceous glands and sebocytes in skin barrier function and inflammation, particularly in acne pathogenesis, but reports no new results.

This review discusses the effects and selection criteria of different progestogens in various treatments but reports no direct clinical comparisons of their metabolic effects.

This study observed a strong overall reduction in the use of CPA/EE in the Netherlands, despite similar proportions of users with acne or other hyperandrogenic conditions before and after the referral procedure.

This review discusses the unique challenges of diagnosing and managing polycystic ovarian syndrome in adolescents and reports no new clinical findings.

In this report, two women treated with alitretinoin experienced persistent curling of their previously straight hair, suggesting a likely causal link between the medication and hair texture changes.

This chapter reviews hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets, covering its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options, but reports no new research findings.

This study found that mutations in the TULP3 gene are associated with progressive degeneration of the liver, kidney, and heart in adults, highlighting the importance of early detection and management.

This review outlines drug repurposing as an efficient, low-cost strategy to identify new uses for existing drugs, highlighting various computational and experimental approaches as well as publicly available databases to aid in personalized pharmacotherapy.

In this prospective phase II clinical trial, researchers are investigating whether adding dutasteride to combined androgen blockade can improve the response rate and clinical outcomes for patients with androgen receptor-positive recurrent or metastatic salivary duct carcinoma.

This study found that from 2011 to 2015, a substantial portion of women in the Netherlands dispensed finasteride or dutasteride were not using adequate contraception, prompting calls for improved risk management.

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.

This study provides a comprehensive analysis of anabolic-androgenic steroids, reporting that their use enhances muscle mass but is associated with significant health issues including cardiac muscle hypertrophy, liver disease, and changes in gender characteristics, emphasizing the need for patient awareness of these risks.

This case report highlights that women with nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia should be aware of the risk of having a child with classical CAH if their partner also carries a severe mutation.

In this review, the authors discussed the potential of hemp in cosmeceutics for skin conditions like acne and dermatitis, emphasizing its therapeutic properties and formulation challenges but noting the need for standardizing cannabinoid content and documenting effectiveness.

This study found that a combination of five medicinal plants traditionally used in Chinese medicine significantly improved skin repair and delayed aging markers in laboratory models, suggesting synergistic anti-aging effects over individual ingredients.

In this review, researchers examined the concentration of cortisol in scalp hair of individuals with alopecia areata to explore its relationship with disease variables, as cortisol in hair can indicate chronic stress, which may impact alopecia areata pathogenesis.

Continuous glucose monitoring and GLP-1 receptor agonists improve diabetes management, but personalized care and education are crucial.

3D-oxy exosomes may significantly boost hair growth, offering new treatment options for hair loss.

This review summarizes research on cannabinoids like CBD and THCV, reporting that they improve hair growth in patients with androgenetic alopecia when applied topically, with CBD showing a dose-dependent effect.

This article discusses the ongoing care needs for individuals with 21-hydroxylase deficiency due to mutations in the CYP21A2 gene but does not present new clinical findings.

This study found that plasma protein binding significantly contributes to the shifts in glucocorticosteroid concentration ratios among blood, saliva, and hair, challenging prior assumptions about enzyme inactivation as the main factor.

In this study of children with nephrotic syndrome treated with cyclophosphamide, 59.4% achieved remission, and 40.6% experienced side effects including nausea, vomiting, and hair loss.

This study found that low concentrations of CBD promoted hair follicle growth, while higher concentrations induced hair follicle regression and increased cell death in an experimental setting.

This research found that Foxc1 transcription factor and COL17A1 are critical in regulating quiescence and hair thinning in hair follicle stem cells, with aging-related DNA damage leading to hair loss.

The researchers reported that in Arabidopsis collet hairs, nuclear positioning near the cell tip is not essential for hair growth, although it correlates with growth dynamics.

This study found that quiescent bulge stem cells, when prevented from contributing to hair follicle and epidermal regeneration, did not affect hair follicle growth or wound healing in the short term.

This study identified 71 SNPs linked to black wool traits in Qira sheep and found that specific mutations in the TYRP1 gene significantly correlate with coat color variations, providing insights for their genetic selection and conservation.

This study found that beta-caryophyllene enhanced re-epithelialization in cutaneous wounds of female mice, suggesting its potential for improving wound healing through multiple pathways.

This study found that BCG injection in COVID-19 convalescent adults reduced long COVID symptoms like hearing and cognitive issues but also led to increased hair loss in women at six months.
