This study suggests that ovarian cycle-related progesterone and neurosteroids regulate α2-subunit expression of GABA-A receptors in the hippocampus through a pathway independent of progesterone receptors, potentially affecting brain conditions linked to the menstrual cycle.

In this study, researchers found that female rats exhibited more pronounced panic-related escape behavior during hypoxia, particularly in the diestrus phase, and that low-dose fluoxetine reduced this behavior, suggesting its potential for managing panic disorder symptoms related to hormonal cycles in women.

In this study, nandrolone decanoate treatment in rats caused persistent diestrus and altered steroid receptor expression and sex hormones, especially at higher doses, with partial reversibility at lower doses over time.

This study found that the estrous cycle influences the effect of the δ-GABAAR agonist THIP in reducing binge drinking behavior in female mice, with receptor expression elevated during diestrus.

This study suggests that the regulation of GABA‐A δ subunit expression by ovarian progesterone-derived neurosteroids may influence seizure susceptibility in catamenial epilepsy.

Lowering 3α,5α-THP in the hippocampus increases anxiety and depression in proestrous rats.

This review discusses the negative effects of anabolic androgenic steroids on various organ systems in men and reports no new results, highlighting the need for physician awareness.

This study found that women with PCOS exhibited higher levels of alexithymia and body uneasiness compared to healthy controls, affecting their psychological and social well-being.

This study highlights potential benefits for public health agencies and policymakers in understanding and communicating about PCC symptomatology and experiences.

This study found that exposing seasonally anestrous mares to extended light periods led to the earlier onset of endocrinologically normal estrous cycles, potentially allowing earlier breeding and foaling.

This study concluded that exposing anestrous brood mares to a 16-hour photoperiod in early December led to endocrinologically normal estrous cycles starting within two months, enabling earlier breeding and foaling.

This article describes a technique for improving the aesthetic results of surgical hair restoration by recycling plug grafts into smaller grafts, which can be combined with other procedures like scalp lifting and reductions.

This study found that Hedgehog signaling likely contributes to cervical carcinogenesis, and while itraconazole reduced growth in mice, it did so through pathways other than inhibiting Hedgehog signaling.

This study found that treatment with the pure antiandrogen Flutamide did not affect the estrous cycle or plasma levels of most hormones in female rats, supporting its potential use for treating hirsutism, acne, and alopecia in women.

This review discusses the International Evidence-Based PCOS Guidelines, which aim to improve diagnosis and management of PCOS and its associated comorbidities, noting the importance of early intervention and healthy lifestyle changes; it reports no new results.

In this case report, a middle-aged female patient experienced significant improvement in chronic telogen effluvium symptoms, including reduced hair fall and improved hair density, following an individualized homeopathic treatment at Dr. Batra’s, highlighting the role of addressing emotional, metabolic, and nutritional factors.

This study found that neurosteroids can reorganize GABA A receptors in mice, mimicking ovarian cycle changes, with the process being mediated by neurosteroid levels rather than direct hormone receptor activation.

This review discusses sex differences in the neuroendocrine response to stress, focusing primarily on rodent studies, and highlights open questions about the roles of gonadal hormones and sex chromosomes.

This study found that during late pregnancy in rats, there is an increase in extrasynaptic GABA A receptor number in granule cells of the dentate gyrus, linked to hormonal fluctuations.

This study found that melatonin significantly improved metabolic and reproductive parameters in PCOS-induced rats, with effects similar to metformin.

In this study on rats, rutin showed dose-dependent improvements in hormonal, antioxidant, and lipid profiles related to polycystic ovary syndrome, with effects comparable to metformin.

This review discusses the pharmacological properties and physiological regulation of neuroactive steroids, focusing on their varied responses to stress and ethanol in rats, mice, and humans, but it reports no new findings.

In this study, finasteride altered acute ethanol withdrawal severity differently in male and female mice, highlighting sex differences in sensitivity to changes in neurosteroid levels.

Continuous light exposure in rats leads to PCOS-like symptoms and suggests sleep habits might affect the disorder's development.

This article discusses the discovery of the first known menstruating rodent, the spiny mouse, and proposes that a significant increase in progesterone during the luteal phase is a unique feature of menstruating species, but reports no new experimental results.

This article reviews the evidence regarding the role of sex hormones in occult hyperadrenocorticism and reports no new findings, highlighting the unproven nature of their involvement.

This study suggests that synthetic steroid analogues or 5α-reductase modulation could be potential therapeutic strategies for nervous system disorders, but further research on their effects is necessary.

This study observed that electro-acupuncture reduced global DNA methylation and DNMT3b expression in a PCOS-like rat model, suggesting a role of hypothalamic DNA methylation in PCOS development and treatment.

This study reviewed and categorized dermatological drugs for pregnancy and lactation according to new FDA labeling guidelines, which replaced simplistic letter categories with detailed information, aiming to improve prescribing decisions by addressing both maternal and paternal reproductive potential.
