research LY191704: A Selective, Nonsteroidal Inhibitor of Human Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Type 1
LY191704 is a compound that effectively blocks a specific enzyme involved in hormone conversion and could help treat enlarged prostate and hair loss.
research Female Hirsutism: Pathophysiological Considerations and Therapeutic Implications
Excessive hair growth in women often has no known cause and is not linked to race or other hormonal symptoms.
research Androgen Profiling by Liquid Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry in Healthy Normal-Weight Ovulatory and Anovulatory Late Adolescent and Young Women
The research found that anovulatory young women have higher androgen and hormone levels than those who ovulate, suggesting immature hormonal regulation rather than a specific condition.
research Brg1 Governs a Positive Feedback Circuit in the Hair Follicle for Tissue Regeneration and Repair
Brg1 is crucial for hair growth and skin repair by maintaining stem cells and promoting regeneration.
research Inhibitors of 5α-Reductase in the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
5α-reductase inhibitors and alpha-1 adrenergic antagonists together effectively treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, with long-term benefits.

The bark of Myrica rubra contains compounds that can block testosterone effects and might help prevent hair loss.
research Influence of Spironolactone Treatment on Endothelial Function in Non-Obese Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Spironolactone improved blood vessel function and cholesterol levels in non-obese women with PCOS.
research Hyperandrogenism in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and Role of CYP Gene Variants: A Review
Certain gene variants may contribute to high androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research High Resolution Full Scan Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry Comprehensive Screening in Sports Antidoping Urine Analysis
The method effectively detects banned substances in urine for sports antidoping.
research Comparison of Cyproterone Acetate Plus Ethinyl Estradiol and Finasteride in the Treatment of Hirsutism
Cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol is generally more effective in treating hirsutism, but consider side effects and patient characteristics.
research A Randomized Trial of Oral DHEA Treatment for Sexual Function, Well-Being, and Menopausal Symptoms in Postmenopausal Women with Low Libido
DHEA did not improve sexual function, well-being, or menopausal symptoms in postmenopausal women with low libido but caused side effects like acne and increased facial hair.
research Neuroimmunoregulation of Androgens in the Adrenal Gland and the Skin
Cytokines and neuropeptides are key in controlling androgen levels, affecting skin and hair conditions.
research Prolonged Treatment with Finasteride (a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor) Does Not Affect Bone Density and Metabolism
Long-term finasteride use doesn't change bone density or metabolism.
research The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Evolutionary Paradox: A Genome-Wide Association Studies-Based, In Silico, Evolutionary Explanation
The research suggests that the global distribution of PCOS is likely due to historical human migration and that genes affecting PCOS may have different impacts on males and females.
research Inhibition of Human Steroid 5β-Reductase (AKR1D1) by Finasteride and Structure of the Enzyme-Inhibitor Complex
Finasteride helps treat hair loss and prostate enlargement by blocking a specific enzyme.
research Role of Androgens in Female-Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia, Either Alone or Associated with Other Symptoms of Hyperandrogenism
Androgens significantly affect female hair loss, and hormonal treatments may help.
research Steroid Plant Hormones: Effects Outside the Plant Kingdom
Plant steroid hormones show growth, health, and medicinal benefits in various organisms, including potential for treating diseases.
research 5α-Reduced Glucocorticoids: A Story of Natural Selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research Hair Growth-Promoting Effect of Aconiti Ciliare Tuber Extract Mediated by the Activation of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling
Aconiti Ciliare Tuber extract may help hair grow by activating a specific cell signaling pathway.
research Human Type 3 5α-Reductase Is Expressed in Peripheral Tissues at Higher Levels Than Types 1 and 2 and Its Activity Is Potently Inhibited by Finasteride and Dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research Diagnostic Criteria for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
To diagnose Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, two out of three signs—irregular periods, high male hormone levels, or cysts on the ovaries—are needed.
research Oxidative Activity of the Type 2 Isozyme of 17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Predominates in Human Sebaceous Glands
The enzyme 17β-HSD type 2 mainly performs oxidation in human sebaceous glands, which may help protect against acne.
