This study found that free testosterone levels were 29% higher with the levonorgestrel implant than with the DMPA injection, which may impact sexual function, mood, and side effects like acne.

This case report describes a 27-year-old female with Werner syndrome, highlighting its early onset, severe metabolic disturbances, and congenital deformities, suggesting consideration of WS in early childhood diabetes and hyperlipidemia diagnoses.

This article highlights causes of otitis externa in small animals and proposes an investigative approach; it reports no new findings.

This study reports that stress-related neurohormones and factors, such as CRH and SP, can inhibit hair growth and alter immune functions in murine and human hair follicles.

In this study, men taking 1 mg/day of finasteride for 12 months showed minor metabolic changes and slight improvements in glucose metabolism.

This review summarizes existing research on how various endocrinopathies, including reproductive disorders and thyroid conditions, can affect vocal parameters, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that feminizing hormone therapy increased GFR in transgender individuals assigned male at birth, suggesting an effect of sex hormones on kidney hemodynamics, while masculinizing therapy showed a slight, nonsignificant decrease in GFR.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

This study suggests that hormonal changes may contribute to the persistent symptoms of long COVID, with specific patterns observed in serum hormone levels related to fatigue and sensory dysfunction.

This study found that mitotane causes specific changes in cortisol metabolism, including increased excretion of certain metabolites, which may influence cortisol bioavailability without hindering early detection of adrenocortical carcinoma recurrence.

This study found that finasteride treatment in males with androgenetic alopecia was linked to significant changes in sperm parameters and increased testosterone levels, but no sexual dysfunction was observed, and sperm parameters returned to baseline after treatment stopped.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.

This study found that serum vaspin levels were elevated in women with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to controls, but treatment with metformin or weight loss did not significantly change these levels.

This review discusses the skin manifestations of endocrine diseases and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing the importance of recognizing these signs for early diagnosis.

This review discusses the emerging "endocrine phenotype" of COVID-19, highlighting the implications for managing diabetes, obesity, vitamin D deficiency, and other endocrine conditions in affected patients.

The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.

This study found that G protein-coupled estrogen receptor enhances melanin synthesis in melanoma cells through cAMP-PKA-MITF-TYR signaling, suggesting its potential as a drug target for chloasma treatment.

This study reports two distinct patterns of hair changes in postmenopausal women, linking diffuse generalized scalp hair loss to older age and frontal hair loss to higher facial hair scores and younger age.

This review suggests that treating endocrine therapy-induced hair loss in breast cancer patients with topical 5-alpha reductase inhibitors and supplements like Vitamin C and omega-3 fatty acids may be effective, but further studies are needed.

In this review, researchers found that while hyper- and hypoprolactinemia in PCOS patients are linked to metabolic changes, intermediate prolactin levels might be protective, but more robust prospective studies and clinical trials are needed to confirm these findings and develop treatments.

This report describes a case where a food supplement containing Serenoa repens extract was associated with hot flashes and menarche in a 10-year-old girl being treated for hirsutism.

In this study, pigmentary changes were the most common skin changes observed in pregnant women, affecting over 90% of the participants.

In this case report, researchers described a postmenopausal woman with virilization symptoms who was diagnosed with a Leydig cell tumor in her ovary, and symptoms improved following tumor removal. The authors highlighted the diagnostic challenge of differentiating such cases from age-related hormonal changes.

In this case report, a shift from Hashimoto's thyroiditis to Graves' disease was observed in a 62-year-old woman, highlighting the rare transformation from hypothyroidism to hyperthyroidism over 20 years, possibly due to changes in antibody activity, according to the researchers.
