The document concludes that better biomarkers are needed to detect long-term oral testosterone use in athletes.

The method effectively detects banned substances in urine for sports antidoping.

The document concludes that there are still unknowns about the effectiveness, risks, and detection of performance-enhancing drugs, and doping remains a challenge.

High testosterone to epitestosterone ratio in hair could predict male-pattern baldness.

Researchers developed a reliable method to measure testosterone and epitestosterone in urine for medical and anti-doping use.

Excessive hair growth in women often has no known cause and is not linked to race or other hormonal symptoms.

The conclusion is that oral contraceptives and antiandrogens can treat hirsutism and acne in women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism, but more research is needed for effective treatments, especially for hair loss.

Finasteride affects urinary steroid profiles and can potentially hide steroid abuse in sports drug testing.

The document concludes that using LC-MS/MS for measuring androgens is more accurate than older methods, but it needs careful validation and standardized references to be most effective.

Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.

Over 50% of women over 50 experience hair loss, with minoxidil being the only proven effective treatment.

Researchers developed a reliable way to measure hormones in urine, showing that a baldness treatment doesn't change hormone levels.

New tests detect finasteride and dutasteride in urine quickly and easily.

PSA levels could help detect illegal steroid use in female athletes but face challenges like cost and PCOS prevalence.

A new method was created to analyze certain chemicals in the urine of alopecia areata patients, revealing they have higher metanephrine content. This method can also be used for other related diseases.

Taking Saw palmetto and Pygeum africana can change the levels of certain steroids in urine, which could cause confusion in doping tests.

The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.

Understanding how DHT works is important for diagnosing and treating hormone-related disorders.

A new method accurately measures nine specific hormones in human blood.

More research is needed to understand how testosterone is maintained in adult males.

Finasteride lowers scalp and blood DHT levels, potentially treating male-pattern baldness.

Scientists have developed a new method to detect steroid abuse in athletes using cell-based tests, which could be the future of anti-doping methods.

Finasteride treatment changes urine metabolomics and steroid signatures, potentially monitoring effectiveness but may cause sexual side effects.

Too much androgen can cause hair loss; finasteride may help.

Androgens, like DHT, affect hair growth and treatments like finasteride may help.

Epitestosterone may counteract testosterone's effects and has roles in body processes like prostate growth and hair distribution.

Epitestosterone may act as a weak antiandrogen and can inhibit an enzyme involved in testosterone metabolism.

The method reliably profiles eicosanoids and shows epitestosterone reduces their levels, similar to common anti-inflammatory drugs.
