The study suggests that male pattern baldness, a possible indicator of sex hormone levels, may be linked to an increased risk of gastric cancer in men.

This review discusses phenotypic differences in testosterone production between mice and humans with HSD17B3 deficiency and reports no new findings; the authors highlight potential pathways and enzymes involved in testosterone synthesis.

This study indicates that sheep prenatally androgenized with testosterone show wool fiber diameter changes that parallel the increased hair diameter in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

This review discusses the role of androgens in women's sexual health and highlights the need for further research on androgen replacement therapy to optimize quality of life, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the role of testosterone in sexual health, supporting Testosterone Replacement Therapy as an effective treatment for Hypoactive Sexual Desire Disorder in postmenopausal women, though more research is needed on its long-term effects and applicability to premenopausal women.

This study observed that consuming flaxseeds significantly reduced serum free testosterone and improved insulin levels among young women with PCOS, suggesting a promising alternative to conventional treatments.

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

This review discusses the clinical implications of female androgen deficiency and evaluates treatment options, emphasizing the need for cautious use of replacement therapy in women with severe deficiency and matching symptoms.

This review discusses the management of polycystic ovary syndrome in women and reports no new clinical results.

This study found that administering a supraphysiological dose of testosterone to female rats significantly reduced estrogen and progesterone levels, disrupted sex steroid receptor expression, and interfered with the embryonic implantation window, indicating potential implications for androgen-related endometrial conditions.

This study found that androstenedione was more effective than testosterone in diagnosing hyperandrogenism in women with PCOS when measured by LC-MS/MS.

Low testosterone levels may lead to more severe COVID-19 outcomes.

This study found that women with post-adolescent acne experience marked menstrual irregularities, polycystic ovaries, androgenetic alopecia, hirsutism, and metabolic syndrome, but insulin resistance and dyslipidemia may not significantly contribute to their acne's pathogenesis.

This article reviews the unapproved use of testosterone for treating female androgen insufficiency and reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that BRL 7660 significantly reduced sebum secretion and acne symptoms in human studies with topical administration, but the placebo effect and commercial pressures halted further investigations.

This article revisits the genetics of pattern baldness but reports no new clinical findings.

This paper reviews the diagnostic criteria, associated morbidities, and possible evolutionary advantages of polycystic ovary syndrome, but does not report any new findings.

This study found that the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome was 6.5% in a minimally biased sample of Caucasian women from Spain.

In this study, insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome was highly correlated with unbound testosterone and sex hormone-binding globulin, rather than luteinizing hormone or peripheral androgen metabolism.

This study found associations between genetic predictors of increased testosterone and cardiovascular risk factors, but the implications for testosterone supplementation are unclear due to uncertainties in genetic variant functions.

This study found that women with common baldness treated with cyclical antiandrogen therapy for 52 weeks experienced increased hair density and a higher percentage of hairs in the anagen growth phase.

In this study, metformin improved BMI, menstrual regularity, and symptoms of hyperandrogenism in adolescents with type 1 diabetes, but did not enhance glycemic control.

This case report describes a 28-year-old woman with facial, abdominal, and thigh hirsutism who showed little improvement after 5 months of Metformin and spironolactone treatment.

This study found that untreated men with coeliac disease exhibited androgen resistance, potentially linked to sexual dysfunction, which improved as intestinal health improved, a pattern not observed in other chronic illnesses.

This article reviews dietary recommendations for managing polycystic ovary syndrome and provides evidence that diet changes can improve the androgen profile in affected women, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that surgical normalization of testosterone in hyperandrogenic women with ovarian androgen-secreting tumors did not significantly change body weight or insulin sensitivity after 12 months.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria and management strategies for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and highlights the need for comprehensive clinical assessment, but does not report new clinical findings.

This review discusses the roles of androgens and estrogens in skin functions and disorders, and highlights the use of estrogen-progestin treatments and anti-androgens in managing hirsutism and acne, without reporting new results.

In this study, cross-sex hormone therapy affected hair growth patterns differently, with estrogen reducing hair growth in male-to-female transsexuals and testosterone increasing it in female-to-male transsexuals; however, male typical hair diameters were not fully reached in the latter group after 12 months.

This study found that oral finasteride 1 mg/day promotes hair growth and prevents further hair loss in a significant proportion of men with male pattern hair loss over two years.
