This narrative review discusses adverse effects associated with 5-ARI treatments for male-pattern baldness and benign prostate hyperplasia, including sexual health, neurological, endocrine, metabolic, and cardiovascular impacts, and emphasizes careful prescription assessment.

This study observed that pediatric patients with diffuse, non-scarring alopecia had significantly lower levels of zinc and folate compared to matched healthy controls, suggesting a possible link between these deficiencies and hair loss in children.

This study found that formula 4 of the citronella and coconut oil combination promoted rabbit hair growth comparably to the positive control.

Stem cell therapies show promise for healing skin wounds but need more testing.

This article reviews common hair loss disorders, emphasizing their potential links to systemic disease and the importance of thorough diagnostic evaluation, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, kolaviron and quercetin were found to reverse elevated biomarkers associated with testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in Wistar rats, with both treatments effectively increasing HDL-c levels, though quercetin did not significantly affect triglyceride levels.

This study concluded that spironolactone may be an effective therapy for a subgroup of hirsute patients, as it reduced plasma testosterone and improved certain hair growth measures.

This study systematically reviewed the use of topical testosterone products such as creams, gels, and patches, finding they effectively raise serum testosterone but pose significant systemic risks like acne and gynecomastia, necessitating careful medical oversight.

This study observed significant inter- and intra-individual variability in serum testosterone levels among women treated with subcutaneous testosterone implants, suggesting that therapy should be guided by clinical response rather than single serum measurements.

This study concluded that serum Adiol-G levels generally parallel testosterone levels and, therefore, do not effectively serve as a marker of peripheral androgen excess in women with androgenic symptoms.

This study found that testosterone concentrations in hair samples were moderately stable over three months, with cosmetic treatments like coloring increasing testosterone levels, while natural hair color in untreated hair did not affect testosterone measurements.

This study found that administering testosterone increased the expression of sexual behavior and elevated serum testosterone and DHT levels in female capuchin monkeys, hinting at potential insights into testosterone use and its risks in humans.

This study found that a 20% concentration of mother-in-law's tongue leaf extract promoted hair growth in male rabbits, with effectiveness comparable to a positive control.

This study characterized the inflammatory response in a promising murine model of thermal burns, similar to human burns, to inform future burn complication studies and preclinical testing of therapies.

Testicular microlithiasis may increase the risk of testicular cancer and patients with it should be closely monitored.

This study found that testosterone therapy increased bone mineral density in older men with low testosterone, and combining it with finasteride may reduce prostate enlargement associated with testosterone treatment.

This review refutes several myths about testosterone therapy in women and suggests that testosterone is beneficial for both physical and mental health, though its safety in women continues to be researched.

This study found that subcutaneous testosterone therapy improved scalp hair growth in a majority of androgen-deficient women who previously reported hair thinning and did not report hair loss as a side effect.

In this study, a plasma-fluorescent corticoid test effectively differentiated patients with adrenal insufficiency from those with normal adrenal function based on their response to corticotropin.

This study analyzed patch test results to identify allergens causing scalp contact dermatitis, finding nickel, cobalt, and balsam of Peru among the most common in the patient population.

In this study, long-term normalization of testosterone levels in postmenopausal women with hyperandrogenism did not improve body mass index, glucose, or lipid metabolism.

In this study, researchers found an inverse association between baldness and testicular cancer, suggesting androgen activity may influence cancer risk.

This case report describes the first instance of facial and oral mucosal hyperpigmentation and acanthosis nigricans linked to testosterone therapy in a patient with idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism.

In this study, testosterone and finasteride were found to increase insulin and zinc levels while decreasing chromium levels in male adult rats, suggesting potential effects on the glucose cycle.

This case report describes a patient who developed localized hypertrichosis of the pinnae after undergoing orchiectomy and chemotherapy for testicular carcinoma.

This article explores the possibility that veterinarians may test positive for ketamine due to occupational exposure, but it reports no specific new findings.

This study of a Yorkshire dog with chronic dermatological alterations highlights the diagnostic importance of combining complementary laboratory tests like histopathology and serum biochemistry with clinical examination.

This clinical study found that Rosmarinum officinalis mother tincture significantly improved hair volume and density in individuals with diffuse hair loss by enhancing hair parameters measured through a hair shedding visual scale and ponytail thickness test.

In this study, engineered mice with a mutation similar to that in Olmsted syndrome showed progressive hair loss due to impaired inner root sheath keratinocyte differentiation and stem cell exhaustion.
