research An Adolescent Girl Presenting With Primary Amenorrhea: A Case Report of Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
A 15-year-old girl with no menstrual period was diagnosed with a genetic condition that makes her body unable to respond to male hormones, leading to female characteristics despite having male genetic makeup.
research A Case of Hair Regrowth in a Patient with Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome and Female Pattern Hair Loss
A woman with hair loss regrew hair using minoxidil and spironolactone.
research Late Diagnosis of Complete Androgen Insensitivity
A 31-year-old woman was diagnosed with Complete Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome much later than usual, leading to a call for earlier detection and treatment guidelines.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome Associated with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (Testicular Feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Clinical, Hormonal, Behavioral, and Genetic Characteristics of Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome in a Brazilian Cohort: Five Novel Mutations in the Androgen Receptor Gene
Five new mutations in the androgen receptor gene were found, helping to understand androgen insensitivity syndrome better.
research Identification of Two Additional Novel Mutations in the AR Gene Associated with Severe Forms of Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
Two new mutations in the AR gene linked to severe androgen insensitivity were found.
research Novel Androgen Receptor Gene Variant Containing a Premature Termination Codon in a Patient with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
A new genetic change causing early stop in the androgen receptor gene was found in a patient with androgen insensitivity syndrome.
research A Teenage Girl with Unexpected Pubertal Changes
The girl's unexpected pubic hair growth led to a diagnosis different from complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.
research Molecular Genetics of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
research An Unusual Cause of Primary Amenorrhea
The 18-year-old girl likely has a condition called müllerian agenesis, which caused her to not have a uterus and experience no menstrual periods.
research The Effects of Estrogens on Linear Bone Growth
Estrogens are key for bone growth spurts in both boys and girls and affect growth into adulthood.
research Kennedy's Disease and Partial Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome: Report of 4 Cases and Literature Review
The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research The Molecular Basis of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.
research Non-Canonical Dimerization of the Androgen Receptor and Other Nuclear Receptors: Implications for Human Disease
Mutations in certain receptors can cause diseases and offer new treatment options.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss: Beyond an Androgenic Aetiology?
Estrogen and prolactin may play bigger roles in female hair loss than previously thought.
research The Effects of Estrogens on Linear Bone Growth
Oestrogens are key for bone growth during puberty in both boys and girls.
research Cutaneous Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Skin problems in PCOS, like excess hair, acne, and hair loss, may not always indicate high male hormone levels and need careful diagnosis for proper treatment.
research Androgen Therapy in Women: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline
The Endocrine Society advised against routine testosterone therapy for women, citing a need for more research on long-term safety and a clear definition of androgen deficiency.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss and Androgen Excess: A Report From the Multidisciplinary Androgen Excess and PCOS Committee
Use "female pattern hair loss" term, assess androgen excess, treat with minoxidil and other medications if needed.
research The Diagnosis of Androgenetic Alopecia in Children: Considerations of Pathophysiological Plausibility
AGA in children needs careful diagnosis due to low androgen levels and possible other causes.
research Androgen-Associated and Androgen-Independent Causes of Alopecia and Acne in Women: Literature Review
The document concludes that hair loss and acne in women can be due to both androgen-related and unrelated causes, requiring a collaborative treatment approach.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Clinical Biochemistry of Dihydrotestosterone
Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.
research No Evidence That 2D:4D Is Related to the Number of CAG Repeats in the Androgen Receptor Gene
Finger length ratios are not linked to the number of specific gene repeats affecting testosterone sensitivity.
research Hormonal Treatment for Skin Androgen-Related Disorders
Hormonal treatments can help with hair loss, acne, and excess hair growth, but it takes 3-6 months to see results and patients should know the possible side effects.
research The Role of Androgen and Androgen Receptor in Skin-Related Disorders
Targeting androgen receptors could be a promising way to treat skin disorders with fewer side effects.
research Androgen Actions on the Human Hair Follicle: Perspectives
Androgens have complex effects on hair growth, promoting it in some areas but causing hair loss in others, and our understanding of this is still evolving.
research Chapter 17: Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs)
Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are drugs that can control the effects of androgens in different tissues, potentially having fewer side effects and promising for treating various conditions.
