This study developed a new method for detecting 30 hormones in anti-aging functional foods, demonstrating good sensitivity and reliability, and identified seven hormones in four out of 14 samples tested.

This review discusses the role of skin enzymes in drug metabolism and emphasizes the need for models assessing enzyme activity to evaluate the safety and bioequivalence of topical generic drugs, highlighting efforts to standardize testing protocols for transdermal products.

In this study, researchers identified a novel STS gene (c.287G > A; p.W96*) mutation in Pakistani individuals with X-linked ichthyosis, expanding the understanding of its genetic causes and aiding in genetic counseling.

In this study, researchers found that shorter CA repeats in the ERbeta gene are correlated with PSA expression, and PSA immunoexpression is associated with increased disease-free survival in breast cancer.

This review summarizes the structural and chemical characteristics of current and novel antiandrogenic drugs but reports no new clinical findings.

This review provides a comprehensive overview of multidisciplinary dermo-aesthetic interventions for breast cancer patients, aiming to establish safe protocols involving various specialists to improve quality of life, although consultation with an oncologist before treatment is advised.

This study found that the E2-ANGPT2 pathway is involved in hair follicle regulation and that ANGPT2 treatment increased hair density in modeled female pattern hair loss, suggesting potential therapeutic use.

This systematic review of Mendelian randomization studies reports that autoimmune thyroid disease is associated with increased risk for numerous health conditions, including coronary atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, while decreasing risks for others, such as lung cancer.

Hormones cause hair loss by affecting cell growth and weakening cell attraction.

This study suggests that lower-dose ethinyl estradiol formulations and progestin-only contraceptives may offer safer options for managing PCOS in obese women due to minimal metabolic effects.

This study found that intracrine androgen signaling via 5α-reductase is essential for optimal endometrial decidualization and vascular development during this process in mice.

This review discusses the roles of glucocorticoid and sex hormone receptors in the skin and their clinical importance, but reports no new research findings.

In this study, the authors identified the DHRS9 SNP rs72623193 as most significantly associated with response to dutasteride in treating male pattern hair loss, with additional variants potentially contributing.

This review discusses investigational treatments for androgenetic and chemotherapy-induced alopecia and reports no new clinical results, highlighting the need for further research.

AGA is a genetic, hormonal hair loss treated with finasteride, minoxidil, and supplements, but new compounds are being developed.

In this study, laparoscopic ovarian diathermy with three to five punctures per ovary improved reproductive outcomes for women with clomiphene-resistant polycystic ovary syndrome, while more than six punctures may cause excessive ovarian damage.

This chapter discusses the role of hormones in regulating reproductive biology and outlines how the endocrine system, particularly the brain and pituitary gland, controls these hormonal processes.

The document concludes that sex hormones are crucial for mammalian reproduction, health, and behavior, and require more research for therapeutic use.

This correspondence describes two patients with both epidermolysis bullosa simplex, Dowling-Meara type, and loose anagen hair syndrome, an association not previously reported in the literature.

In this study, researchers found that pregnant mice exposed to excessive androgen led to thinner ventricular walls and cardiac hypertrophy in offspring, suggesting that prenatal androgen exposure adversely affects cardiac health through reduced cardiomyocyte proliferation.

This chapter reviews the causes and underlying steroid pathways of hirsutism and virilization in women, detailing relevant conditions and laboratory assays without reporting new clinical results.

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

In this study, adolescents with depressive symptoms were found to have higher urinary excretion rates of certain steroid metabolites, including corticosterone and adrenal hormones, and a specific metabolite ratio was identified as a potential biomarker for distinguishing these patients from healthy controls.

This review identifies natural plants that possess androgen-related compounds, highlighting the potential of phytoandrogens as alternatives to allopathic treatments for conditions like hypogonadism, impotence, infertility, and erectile dysfunction.

In this review, researchers explored the multifaceted role of NF-κB signaling in various biological processes and diseases, including its interactions with other pathways, and discussed possible therapeutic approaches targeting this pathway for treating conditions like cancer, autoimmune disorders, and COVID-19.

In this study, among Iraqi women with hirsutism, researchers found no significant differences in hormonal markers compared to healthy controls, but identified a strong association between the modified Ferriman-Gallwey (mFG) score and hirsutism, highlighting the mFG score's utility in diagnosing the condition.

This review examines the use of natural remedies, including various herbs, for treating polycystic ovary syndrome, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report described a 9-year-old girl initially suspected to have complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, whose laboratory tests later suggested an alternative diagnosis involving atypical steroid metabolism patterns and hormonal responses.

Early treatment of PCOS in teens is crucial to prevent long-term health issues like diabetes and heart disease.

This narrative review examined skin-sparing techniques in gynecomastia surgery and found satisfactory thoracic remodeling with acceptable morbidity and reduced scarring, but acknowledged methodological differences that limit decisive conclusions.
