This study found that Mueller-Hinton Agar performed better than Dermasel Agar for antifungal susceptibility testing of feline dermatophytes, providing reliable susceptibility data for effective antifungal therapy.

This study found that testosterone administration reduced the expression of uterine receptivity molecules in ovariectomized rats, which may negatively affect early pregnancy establishment and female fertility.

In this rat model of diabetic neuropathic pain, the study found that testosterone metabolites dihydrotestosterone and 3α-diol may have analgesic effects through different mechanisms.

This study observed that testosterone combined with hormonal contraceptives elevated hormones like estrone and testosterone, altered coagulation factors, and increased sexual behavior frequency in female capuchin monkeys.

This review discusses the use of anabolic-androgenic steroids in sports and outlines current methods for detecting urinary steroid doping, particularly testosterone, but reports no new experimental findings.

This study found that in Iraqi women with PCOS, those taking vitamin E supplements experienced a significant reduction in androgenic symptoms like hair loss, weight gain, and acne, along with lower levels of certain hormones linked to the condition.

This study reported the development of a novel and reliable liquid chromatographic method to measure testosterone and epitestosterone in human urine, offering sensitive detection for doping control.

This study isolated new geranylated coumarins from Mammea siamensis flowers and found that several of these compounds inhibit testosterone 5α-reductase.

In this study, Ark-e-Kasni was found to alleviate PCOS symptoms in rats by restoring hormonal levels, improving insulin sensitivity, and reducing inflammation and cystic follicles, suggesting its therapeutic potential via diverse molecular mechanisms.

This study assessed vitamin E and a combined oral contraceptive's impact on continuous light-induced PCOS in female rats, finding they reduced testosterone levels and modified oxidative stress, suggesting benefits via melatonin-related pathways.

This study found that in rats, combined treatment with finasteride and doxazosin altered epithelial cell behavior and matrix metalloproteinases activity, suggesting effects possibly mediated by TGF-β1 and androgen pathways.

Combining conventional and integrative treatments can help reduce hair loss and improve hair growth in women with androgenic alopecia.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with virilization linked to ovarian stromal hyperthecosis, highlighting the importance of detailed clinical evaluation and complementary testing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

The researchers reported that the aqueous extract of Urtica fissa E.Pritz inhibited 5α-reductase activity in vitro.

This study found that the gene for the enzyme aromatase is expressed in scalp hair follicles of women and is negatively correlated with LH levels, potentially reflecting the hormonal environment of hair follicles in PCOS.

In this study, a very low-calorie ketogenic diet significantly improved metabolic and hormonal profiles in obese men, but did not significantly enhance most semen parameters except for sperm motility.

This research suggests that the enzyme Phospholipase D from E. coli is a strong candidate as the underlying cause of benign prostatic hyperplasia, potentially mediated by its conversion to lysophosphatidic acid in the prostate.

This case report discusses the diagnostic challenges and management options for three siblings with 46, XY DSD due to type 2 5-α reductase deficiency, highlighting the genetic basis and impact on their quality of life.

In this retrospective study, cyproterone acetate treatment in late-pubertal trans-girls was found to be generally safe and led to mild feminizing effects, with more rapid feminization occurring when combined with estrogens.

This report describes a case of tinea capitis caused by Epidermophyton floccosum, highlighting its unusual ability to perforate hair and act as an etiological agent for the condition.

This article describes a clinical case of a 67-year-old patient with telogen effluvium treated with a supplement containing amino acids, vitamin E, iron, and Serenoa repens, but reports no new clinical findings.

A vitamin and mineral supplement significantly reduced hair shedding in Brazilian women with telogen effluvium.

This study demonstrates that a newly developed bio-based, dual-phasic hair serum offers a sustainable and effective alternative to traditional silicone-based serums, enhancing hair cuticle integrity and consumer appeal while supporting environmentally friendly formulation design.

This study reported that treatment with cyproterone acetate alone and then with incremental estrogen doses induced mild feminizing effects in late-pubertal trans-girls, with further feminization observed after adding estrogen.

This article discusses the familiarity of identifying male androgenetic alopecia but presents no new research findings.

This article reviews the history and current medicolegal challenges of doping in sports, focusing on FIFA's procedures and three urgent legal issues, but presents no new findings.

This review of studies on prostate cancer chemoprevention in Europe reports no robust evidence supporting the effectiveness of chemopreventive agents, though vitamin E and selenium may potentially contribute to prevention efforts.

This review covers hair anatomy, common hair diseases, diagnostic approaches, management, and hair care, but reports no new clinical findings; the authors highlight the importance of proper hair care knowledge.

The document concludes that hair loss in women is complex, often linked to aging, health conditions, and nutritional deficiencies, and emotional impacts should not be underestimated.
