This review explores how estrogens influence skin health and attractiveness in women, particularly with aging, but it reports no new clinical findings.

This study reports that oophorectomy significantly reduces serum testosterone levels in postmenopausal women, indicating the postmenopausal ovary's continued production of testosterone.

This study found that low serum testosterone and elevated serum oestrone in men with cirrhosis are associated with worse liver disease and adverse health outcomes, suggesting oestrone as a potential ill health marker.

This study found that prepubertal girls have significantly higher levels of estrogens and androgen metabolites compared to age-matched boys, which may contribute to their earlier onset of puberty.

This review discusses how sex hormone levels and local steroid synthesis influence gender differences in aging skin, reporting no new clinical results.

In this review and meta-analysis, the authors concluded that 5α-reductase inhibitor therapy is not consistently associated with significant increases in serum testosterone levels in men.

This study suggests that hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic men is associated with altered sex-steroid metabolism, indicated by lower testosterone and 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone levels compared to cirrhosis alone.

This study found that women experiencing diffuse hair loss had significantly lower levels of plasma sex-hormone binding globulin compared to controls, while their testosterone levels remained normal.

This mini-review examines ethnopharmacological approaches to manage hair loss in postmenopausal women, highlighting promising botanical remedies like saw palmetto, rosemary oil, and ginseng. The authors underscore a need for more interdisciplinary trials and focus on traditional remedies' multifaceted benefits, while noting gaps in menopausal-specific evidence.

This study discusses the complex roles and effects of brain-synthesized sex neurosteroids, highlighting sex differences in their concentrations and their varied impacts on synaptic plasticity, cognitive behavior, and aging-related cognitive decline.

This study found that treatment with leuprolide plus cyclic estrogen/progestin may lead to a faster and greater improvement in hirsutism compared to a standard oral contraceptive regimen.

In this study, researchers found that oestrogen did not increase adrenal androgen secretion in children with premature adrenarche or in adolescents with gonadal dysgenesis undergoing oestrogen replacement therapy.

This article reviews the effects of combined oral contraceptives on skin conditions and suggests prescribing guidelines for women with acne, as it reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a Canadian Husky dog with sertolioma that exhibited dermatological symptoms and aggressive behavior, both of which improved significantly after surgery.

This study discusses the use of oral contraceptives as a treatment for hyperandrogenism, showing improvement in hirsutism and acne for many women and possibly providing metabolic benefits with certain formulations.

This review discusses causes and treatments for hirsutism in women and reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the efficacy and safety of exemestane as a treatment for estrogen-receptor-positive breast cancer and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the challenges in diagnosing female androgen insufficiency syndrome due to unreliable testosterone measurement methods but notes symptom improvement with testosterone therapy, emphasizing the need for women-specific formulations and safety guidelines.

This study found that the gene for the enzyme aromatase is expressed in scalp hair follicles of women and is negatively correlated with LH levels, potentially reflecting the hormonal environment of hair follicles in PCOS.

This paper highlights the need for a comprehensive red ginseng monograph to provide standardized information on its components, certified functionality, efficacy, action mechanisms, and safety, especially given its widespread use as a health functional food in South Korea and interest in its benefits worldwide.

This study suggests that topical finasteride may benefit women with facial hirsutism, based on observations from a small sample.

Gene variant linked to prostate cancer, hormone levels, and hair loss.

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 review discusses the effects of estrogens on skin aging and highlights the potential benefits of estrogen replacement therapy and selective estrogen receptor modulators for improving skin health in postmenopausal women, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the role of estrogens in hair follicle cycling and the skin, highlighting the need for more research on estrogen signaling pathways and their interactions with other factors in hair biology.

This review discusses the role of oestrogens in stimulating linear bone growth and pubertal changes in both boys and girls, highlighting their influence on the growth hormone-insulin-like growth factor axis; it reports no new clinical results.

This study observed that estrogen receptor β and androgen receptor expressions in the skin decline with age, more noticeably under sun exposure, suggesting a role in skin aging.

This study concluded that a regimen of transdermal estradiol and oral medroxyprogesterone acetate effectively reduces hirsutism while minimizing side effects in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This article discusses the influence of estrogens on hair follicle growth and metabolism, suggesting a significant role alongside androgens in hair growth control but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of oestrogens in stimulating growth hormone secretion and influencing linear bone growth in children, and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest that oestrogens play a key role in pubertal growth spurts for both genders.
