This article outlines the rationale, design, major findings, and updated objectives of the ongoing Rotterdam Study, without presenting new research data.

This study found that sex steroid hormone receptors are largely maintained during the transformation of skin appendages to neoplasms, except for androgen and estrogen receptors in sweat and sebaceous gland tumors.

This review discusses idiopathic hirsutism, potential underlying mechanisms, and various therapeutic approaches without providing new clinical results, and emphasizes the need for further research on well-defined patient groups.

This review highlights the need for a deeper understanding of 5alpha-reductases and neuroactive steroids to reduce potential adverse effects of 5alpha-reductase inhibitors used for conditions like benign prostatic hyperplasia and androgenic alopecia, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses how the CRH/POMC systems may regulate human hair follicle pigmentation and highlights the concept of "self-similarity" in melanocortin systems at both local and systemic levels, without presenting new experimental results.

This review discusses hypopituitarism's bidirectional relationship with COVID-19 due to metabolic comorbidities and pituitary risks, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study, children with classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia were found to have increased epicardial fat thickness, which was associated with subclinical atherosclerosis markers and left ventricular dysfunction, especially in poorly controlled cases.

Skin health and diseases are closely linked to metabolic processes.

This study found that women with epilepsy on carbamazepine and sodium valproate monotherapy experienced more significant weight gain but showed no difference in PCOS incidence compared to phenytoin users; elevated TSH levels were more common among those on sodium valproate.

This review highlights the role of disrupted glycolysis in exacerbating reproductive and metabolic abnormalities in PCOS and suggests that agents like metformin and resveratrol may help restore glycolytic balance and improve ovarian function.

This case report describes a 19-year-old girl with PCOS who experienced symptom improvement, including normalized menstruation, after two months of Ayurvedic treatment.

This review examines the role of androgens and androgen receptors in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism, focusing on their effects on mitochondrial content and function; it also discusses the sex-dimorphic influence of androgens and provides theoretical insights into their mechanisms.

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 chapter reviews botanical treatments for polycystic ovary syndrome, discussing potential benefits but presenting no new clinical results; it emphasizes the use of botanicals for managing symptoms like anovulation, insulin resistance, and inflammation.

HPT axis hormones boost mitochondrial function and growth in hair follicles, potentially aiding hair health.

This review discusses the impact of testosterone therapy on postmenopausal women's sexual function and well-being but notes a lack of long-term safety studies and debates on defining androgen insufficiency.

In this study, researchers developed a sensitive assay to measure the inhibition of steroid 5-α reductase (5AR) by chemicals like finasteride and dutasteride, revealing species-specific differences in inhibitor efficacy between human and fish cell lines.

Small hormonal imbalances can cause significant health problems, so more sensitive testing for hormone-disrupting chemicals is needed.

This review highlights the significant risks posed by mercury to the endocrine system, including disruptions in hormone synthesis and regulation, stress response, and potential reproductive dysfunction, while noting the need for further research on dose-response relationships and long-term impacts.

In this animal study, finasteride was found to significantly lower cortisol and increase testosterone levels in female rats, indicating its broader impact on endocrine regulation by altering adrenal and gonadal hormones.

This review discusses the role of hormones in acne vulgaris and highlights the need for further research on their mechanisms of action; it reports no new clinical results.

Environmental factors and exposure to toxins may contribute to male infertility by affecting sperm and hormone function.

This review explores the biological functions of vitamin D, highlighting how deficiency may increase the risk of various diseases, but reports no new clinical results.

This review highlights how advanced nanocarrier and microneedle-based transdermal drug delivery strategies can potentially improve the treatment of skin diseases by enhancing site-specific drug delivery, increasing skin penetration, and reducing systemic toxicity compared to conventional methods.

This review discusses the use of antimüllerian hormone as a marker of ovarian reserve in infertility diagnosis and treatment, noting it reflects oocyte quantity but not health or pregnancy likelihood.

This study found that androgenetic alopecia is the leading cause of hair loss in adolescents and may indicate endocrine disorders, emphasizing the need for accurate diagnosis.

This review explores the complex relationship between thyroid hormones and skin, discussing potential mechanisms and known interactions but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research.
