Sex hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in causing acne.

Plant-based products can improve hair and skin health without harmful side effects.

Birth control pills can improve or cause acne and hair issues, with improvements more common, and may affect skin pigmentation.

Environmental factors and chemicals might affect hormone balance and contribute to common hair loss.

Topical finasteride may help treat facial hirsutism in women.

Birth control pills can cause skin issues but may help with acne and hirsutism, and choosing the right type can minimize side effects.

Scientists made all eight versions of a compound called cyoctol, but found it's not an anti-androgen and it fully breaks down in the skin.

Estrogen deficiency can reduce the enzyme activity needed to activate vitamin D.

Females have higher estrogen receptor levels in hair than males, and these levels decrease in white hair compared to black hair.

Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.

Cyproterone acetate-estrogen most effective for hirsutism, but consider side effects and patient needs.

Certain genetic variations in the AR and ERβ genes can affect androgen levels in women.

All treatments reduce hair growth; low dose flutamide most effective with fewer side effects.

The nature of the side chain in RU 58841 derivatives greatly affects its AR affinity, with the N-(iodopropenyl) derivative 13 showing the highest AR binding affinity, suggesting its potential for developing high-affinity radioiodinated AR radioligands.

Rare adrenal cancers that secrete androgens or estrogens have a poor prognosis and are treated primarily with surgery.

Changes in testosterone and estrogen receptor genes can affect how men age, influencing body fat, hair patterns, and possibly leading to skin disorders.

The study concluded that both estrogen and androgen receptors, which decrease with age, are linked to skin aging and may be hormonally regulated.

Glioblastoma cells can make androgens, which might help the tumor grow.

Estrogen is important for keeping adult mouse nipple skin healthy by controlling certain cell signals.

Estrogen and androgenic hair increase melanoma risk, especially in European-ancestry individuals.

Scientists made the first metal-based compounds from a nonsteroidal antiandrogen drug, which showed potential in fighting both hormone-dependent and independent prostate cancer cells.

A drug improved schizophrenia-like symptoms in stressed rats by changing brain steroid levels.

Male rats have androgen receptors in their liver, which are different from proteins that bind estrogen.

Melatonin in the skin helps protect against damage from stress and UV rays, and could be used to treat certain skin conditions.

Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.

New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.

17α-estradiol is a safe estrogen that might protect the brain and doesn't cause feminization, needing more research for treating brain diseases.

New testosterone analogs show promise for male contraception with better activity and potentially fewer side effects.

Estrogen deficiency, like after menopause or certain surgeries, leads to faster skin aging and health issues.

Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
