Surgery is not the right treatment for a fungal scalp infection; proper medical treatment is needed.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research An Efficient, Non-Invasive Approach for In Vivo Sampling of Hair Follicles: Design and Applications in Monitoring DNA Damage and Aging
A new painless method to collect hair follicles helps study DNA damage and aging.
research Premature Androgenic Alopecia and Insulin Resistance: Male Equivalent of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome?
Some men with early hair loss may have similar hormonal changes to women with Polycystic ovary syndrome, and could be at risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
research Androgens in Women: Critical Evaluation of Methods for Their Determination in Diagnosing Endocrine Disorders
The conclusion is that standardizing testosterone measurement methods is essential for better diagnosis accuracy in women.
research Finasteride Treatment and Neuroactive Steroid Formation
Finasteride treatment can decrease certain steroids and increase others, possibly leading to depression symptoms in some cases.
research The Differences Between Aromatizable And Non-Aromatizable Androgens In Relation To Body Composition And Metabolic Syndrome Risk Factors In Men
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone have similar effects on body composition and metabolic health in men.
research HIF-1α Stimulators Function Equally to Leading Hair Loss Agents in Enhancing Dermal Papilla Growth
HIF-1α stimulators, like deferiprone, work as well as popular hair loss treatments, minoxidil and caffeine, in promoting hair growth.
research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.
