Eating alfalfa sprouts every day can raise testosterone levels in middle-aged men, but broccoli sprouts don't have this effect.

Hormones like testosterone and estrogen significantly affect hair growth and structure.

Ganoderma lucidum, a type of mushroom, may help treat enlarged prostate by blocking testosterone conversion.

Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.

Selective non-steroidal inhibitors of 5α-reductase type 1 can help treat DHT-related disorders.

Testosterone affects hair loss, acne, and excessive hair growth, and antiandrogens can help treat these conditions.

Testosterone causes hair loss in AGA mice, which are good for testing baldness treatments, and both minoxidil and cyproterone acetate can prevent this hair loss.

A specific metabolite, not a receptor protein, triggers the production of certain kidney enzymes, but this process is disrupted in mice with a mutation causing testicular feminization.

New compounds may soon be tested to treat excessive hair growth in women.

Testosterone and its byproducts help support male sexual behavior through different pathways in the brain and body.

Androgens, male hormones, play a role in both men and women's health, and testosterone therapy can help women with low levels, but it's not suitable for pregnant or lactating women, or those with certain conditions.

Some new progesterone derivatives are better at blocking testosterone conversion than a common drug.

Oophorectomy lowers testosterone and estrogen levels in both premenopausal and postmenopausal women, with postmenopausal women still producing significant testosterone.

5α-Reductase inhibitors can help treat hair loss, acne, and prostate issues by reducing DHT levels.

The study concludes that a genetic mutation in TFM mice leads to reduced androgen receptor activity, affecting the body's response to male hormones.

Men with advanced liver disease and high oestrone and low testosterone levels have worse health outcomes.

A boy's early puberty caused by a testicular tumor returned to normal after surgery.

Dihydrotestosterone specifically binds to hamster sebaceous glands, with a higher affinity than testosterone.

Applying EGCG on the skin can prevent hair loss caused by testosterone in mice.

Testosterone and some of its forms can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in skin.

Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.

Finasteride, a drug that changes testosterone to a different hormone, was studied and its effects over time were modeled successfully.

Finasteride use may be linked to rare testicular tumor, but more research needed.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.

Finasteride doesn't change polycystic ovary size or cyst number, suggesting testosterone's role in their appearance.

The mouse model suggests male pattern baldness may be due to an enzyme increasing DHT and higher androgen receptor levels in hair follicles.

Testosterone affects blood pressure control and inflammation in male rats with endotoxic shock, and blocking certain hormones may help treat it.

Researchers found four natural compounds that can change DHT levels in prostate cancer cells.

Finasteride is a medicine used to treat enlarged prostate and prostate cancer, and it works by changing how testosterone works in the body.

The conclusion is that tritium-labeled testosterone metabolites can be made and are better converted into dihydrotestosterone in skin cells than in prostate tissue.
