This case report describes a unique instance where elevated prolactin levels from a pituitary adenoma were associated with hirsutism due to increased dihydrotestosterone, with treatment leading to normalization.

This study presents two adolescent cases of ovarian hyperthecosis, a rare cause of severe hyperandrogenism, highlighting management strategies involving gonadotropin suppression and hormone replacement after excluding androgen-producing adrenal and ovarian tumors.

This report presents the first known case of a proliferating hybrid cyst containing both epidermoid and trichilemmal components on the scrotum of a 44-year-old man.

This case report describes a 46,XY female patient with a novel homozygous nonsense mutation in the LHCGR gene, highlighting the need for molecular analysis in disorders of sexual development.

This article discusses the causes of hirsutism, identifying increased androgen production and heightened skin sensitivity, and provides no new clinical results.

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

This study investigated the effects of 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors on penile histomorphometry in both normotensive and hypertensive rats, reporting no significant changes between treated and untreated groups.

In this case study, clomiphene citrate therapy restored hormonal balance and improved symptoms in a young male runner with hypogonadotropic hypogonadism related to endurance exercise.

This case study identified a probable pure testosterone-secreting ovarian tumor in a woman with increased facial hair and elevated testosterone levels, confirmed by histological examination as Leydig cells hyperplasia, which normalized testosterone and symptoms post-surgery.

In this study, idiopathic hirsutism was identified as the most common cause of hirsutism among the patients, followed by polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This case report describes a 61-year-old female with hyperandrogenic symptoms, where an ovarian hemangioma with stromal luteinization was identified and surgically removed, resulting in improved symptoms.

A 19-year-old male with delayed puberty was successfully treated for a condition that prevents normal hormone production.

This case report highlights that uncommon ovarian tumors like sclerosal stromal tumors can cause hirsutism and virilization in postmenopausal women and lead to androgen secretion, despite typically being hormonally inactive.

This study highlights a rare case of ovarian hyperthecosis in a 58-year-old postmenopausal woman, presenting with polycythemia and severe hyperandrogenism symptoms, with resolution of symptoms following laparoscopic bilateral oophorectomy.

This case report highlights the need to assess postmenopausal women with hirsutism for hyperandrogenism causes, as exemplified by a Leydig cell tumor coinciding with primary hyperparathyroidism.

This review discusses the cosmetic and health implications of hirsutism and highlights its potential link to serious underlying disorders, but it presents no new clinical findings.

Ovarian hyperthecosis caused high testosterone and virilization symptoms in a 60-year-old woman, which improved after surgery.

This case report describes a patient with Clouston Syndrome who developed eccrine syringofibroadenoma, marking only the fourth such association documented in existing literature.

This case report describes a 13-year-old with DSD raised as female, exhibiting hoarseness and clitoral enlargement, with hormonal assessments not indicating common related deficiencies.

The researchers reported that pubic hair transplantation surgery may help improve self-esteem in women with pubic atrichosis or hypotrichosis by achieving natural and realistic-looking results.

This study found that micro-CT imaging can effectively identify vascular structures in rat models of congenital hypospadias, providing anatomical insights for selecting preputial vessel flaps in surgical procedures.

In this case report, a 48-year-old woman's hyperandrogenism, presenting with symptoms like acne and hirsutism, was attributed to a benign Leydig cell tumor, which resolved after surgical removal.

In this case report, a 68-year-old woman with a Leydig cell tumor of the ovary experienced virilization, and surgical removal led to normalization of testosterone levels and regression of symptoms.

This study reports the first case of ovarian mature cystic teratoma linked to clinical virilization due to ectopic testosterone production, possibly from overexpression of the enzyme HSD17B5.

This study reports a rare case of polyorchidism in a 96-year-old male cadaver, suggesting a new classification based on anatomical and histological findings to aid in accurate diagnosis.

An 81-year-old woman's severe male hormone symptoms were caused by an ovarian tumor, which was treated with surgery.

This case report describes a rare instance of multiple sebaceous cysts over the scrotum in a 22-year-old man, highlighting the effectiveness of ultrasound imaging for diagnosis and the need for surgical intervention in severe cases.

In this case study, a 62-year-old woman with severe hyperandrogenism underwent a clomiphene test, which suggested an ovarian origin for her condition, leading to the discovery of a Leydig cell tumor after a bilateral oophorectomy.

This case study reports that medical imaging of the ovaries may not always conclusively identify the cause of postmenopausal hyperandrogenism, as demonstrated by a patient with a rare condition.
