Dihydrotestosterone changes some hormone-related gene expressions in rat pituitary glands but doesn't affect the estrous cycle.

The more lipophilic the progesterone derivative, the better it binds to androgen receptors and has antiandrogenic effects.

New nonsteroidal molecules can potentially increase dihydrotestosterone in neurons by blocking certain enzymes, without affecting prostate and seminal vesicle weight.

Blocking glucocorticoid receptors improves glucose metabolism in a PCOS mouse model.

Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.

Testosterone affects androgen receptors and lipid storage in cells, while DHEA does not convert to testosterone or affect these receptors in the same way.

Men with male-pattern baldness have more androgen receptors in their scalp's oil glands, which may contribute to hair loss.

Androgens cause oil-producing skin cells with androgen receptors to mature and produce more oil.

Pumpkin seed products may help improve prostate and bladder health by blocking certain enzymes and hormone receptors.

Testosterone is made by Leydig cells, is active when not bound to proteins, and works by binding to receptors in muscles and other tissues.

The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.

Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.

Hormones and metabolism play a complex role in prostate enlargement, and more research is needed to improve diagnosis and treatment.

Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.

Germacrone from Curcuma aeruginosa may help treat conditions related to male hormones by blocking a specific enzyme.

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.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia may be caused by changes in how the body processes male hormones.

Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.

Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.

Androgenetic alopecia, a genetic disorder affecting up to 50% of adults, is caused by an excessive response to androgens leading to hair follicle shrinkage. Treatments include FDA-approved drugs, other therapies like low-dose oral minoxidil, and hair transplantation.

Androgens play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness and excessive hairiness.

VEGF and its receptor might cause hair loss.

Finasteride may decrease semen quality but not harm sperm production, and stopping the drug can improve semen quality; hyperprolactinemia can cause infertility but is treatable with medication.

Topical finasteride might be a good alternative for hair loss treatment with fewer side effects, but more research is needed.

Male pattern hair loss may be linked to the developmental origins of hair follicles.

Androgen receptor degrader drugs may be a promising future treatment for hair loss.

Androgenetic alopecia, or hair loss, is caused by a mix of genetics, hormones, and environment, where testosterone affects hair growth and causes hair to become smaller and grow for a shorter time.

Androgen affects oil production and hair growth in the skin.

Androgens like testosterone affect oil production and hair growth in skin and hair follicles.

5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors reduce the effects of testosterone by blocking its conversion into a stronger form.
