In this case study, a diagnosis of HAIR-AN syndrome, a rare form of polycystic ovarian syndrome, was made in a 17-year-old female with hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and acanthosis nigricans, but genetic screening revealed no significant mutations linked to her symptoms.

This study found no clinically significant effects of intraovarian injection of platelet-rich plasma on ovarian function over one year in patients with extremely low functional ovarian reserve.

This study found that paxillin knockdown in human granulosa-derived cells and mouse models decreased androgen receptor protein levels and altered gene expression, suggesting paxillin's role in protecting against androgen excess effects, as observed in a polycystic ovary syndrome mouse model.

This study found that finasteride induced infertility and increased endoplasmic reticulum stress in rats, but these effects were mitigated by DA-9401 administration.

This abstract provides a brief introduction to Propecia® (finasteride 1mg) but reports no new research findings.
