This study developed a detailed classification system for functional androgenization in females that may enhance diagnosis and personalized treatment by identifying individual dysfunctions.

In this review, the authors aim to improve the differential diagnosis between hyperandrogenic PCOS and NCAH, which could lead to more personalized treatment strategies for patients experiencing hyperandrogenism.

This case report describes a woman with hyperandrogenism and menstrual disturbances, where an ovarian steroid cell tumor was identified and removed, leading to resolution of symptoms.

This study found that LC-MS/MS is a more reliable method than immunoassays for measuring serum 17OHP and androgen levels in women with hyperandrogenism.

This review discusses the role of skin enzymes in drug metabolism and emphasizes the need for models assessing enzyme activity to evaluate the safety and bioequivalence of topical generic drugs, highlighting efforts to standardize testing protocols for transdermal products.

This article reviews the causes and management of hirsutism, reports no new results, and emphasizes that prolonged pharmaceutical treatment is necessary for improvement.

This review describes two cases of young women with primary amenorrhea and hyperandrogenemia, suggesting that adrenal tumors should be considered in patients with significantly elevated circulating testosterone levels.

Acne in dark skin is influenced by environmental factors and can lead to hyperpigmentation, with various treatment options available.
