This article reviews hirsutism in adolescent females, discussing its hormonal basis, potential underlying conditions, and the availability of effective therapies, without reporting new research findings.

In this case report, a 10-year-old girl with an adrenal adenoma experienced symptoms like hirsutism and clitoromegaly; after surgical removal of the tumor, her symptoms and biochemical abnormalities resolved over several months.

This case study describes an 88-year-old postmenopausal woman diagnosed with Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor, a rare ovarian cancer, highlighting the importance of checking hormone levels in similar unexpected cases.

This case report describes a 19-year-old woman with typical clinical and histopathological findings of trichofolliculoma, a rare hair follicle hamartoma usually located on the face or scalp.

This case report describes a 57-year-old woman with hirsutism, hair loss, and vocal changes, who was found to have elevated testosterone levels but normal dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels.

This review discusses various aspects of unwanted facial hair, including its psychological impact and current treatment options, and reports no new clinical results from the satellite symposium at the EHRS Meeting.

This review discusses causes and treatments for hirsutism in women and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, women with idiopathic hirsutism who took finasteride for 9 months experienced a significant reduction in hirsutism scores compared to those receiving a placebo, with minimal side effects.

This article reviews the assessment, causes, and management approaches for hirsutism in women, emphasizing ethical considerations concerning unapproved drug use and contraceptive responsibility but reports no new clinical findings.

This report describes two cases of postmenopausal hyperandrogenism where GnRH analogue use suggested an ovarian source of excess androgens, leading to a diagnosis of benign ovarian tumors.

In this study, the administration of indole-based compounds, particularly L-Tryptophan and Tryptophol, to a PCOS-induced rat model resulted in an increased number of healthy ovarian follicles and a reduction in ovarian cysts compared to untreated rats, suggesting potential therapeutic efficacy.

In this case report, successful management of a pituitary macroadenoma was achieved with thyroid hormone therapy, leading to reduced tumor size and improvement in symptoms like galactorrhea and headaches.

This case report describes a trichoblastoma in a 58-year-old man's leg, which was successfully excised without recurrence observed after 9 months.

This case report describes two patients who experienced loose anagen hairs and pili torti, resulting in nonscarring alopecia, potentially linked to erlotinib treatment for solid tumors.

This review summarizes research on individual Chinese herbal extracts that may inhibit mechanisms of renal fibrosis, but it reports no new experimental findings.

This article discusses the kinetic and topographical heterogeneity in follicular thyroid neoplasms and reports no new research findings; the authors emphasize understanding diverse growth patterns.

This case report describes the first known instance of a testosterone-secreting steroid cell ovarian tumor causing pulmonary embolism and erythrocytosis in a postmenopausal woman, highlighting its potential role as a rare cause of hypercoagulable state.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have significantly higher plasma levels of thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor and other hemostatic markers compared to age- and BMI-matched healthy controls.

This case report describes a 24-year-old woman with a stage IIIC retiform variant of Sertoli-Leydig cell tumour, highlighting the challenges in managing this rare ovarian tumour.

In this study, researchers observed that hyperandrogenic PCOS patients exhibited distinct miRNA and TGFβ signaling gene expression patterns in granulosa cells, suggesting these factors may play a role in PCOS pathogenesis.

This study found that medications including benzodiazepines, quetiapine, and certain alpha-blockers, along with hypertension and short axial length, were independently associated with an increased risk of Intraoperative Floppy Iris Syndrome during cataract surgery.

This study suggests that antiandrogens may slightly reduce hirsutism severity compared to placebo, but evidence is weak and their relative efficacy remains uncertain.

This study found that impaired autophagy plays a role in sonic hedgehog pathway-induced endometrial fibrosis, suggesting it as a potential target for treating intrauterine adhesion.

This article discusses the physiology of hair growth, how to identify excessive hair growth in women, and when to refer them for further medical assessment, but reports no new clinical results.

This report discusses a case of pilomatrixoma, an uncommon benign skin tumor, and emphasizes the importance of histopathological analysis for accurate diagnosis to avoid misdiagnosis as malignancy.

In this study, pilomatricoma, a benign skin tumor from hair follicle matrix cells, is highlighted as an important consideration when diagnosing painless, firm subcutaneous nodules, with accurate diagnosis relying on histopathological examination.

In this case report, a 21-year-old female with familial partial lipodystrophy type 2 and hyperandrogenism was found to have a rare Sertoli cell tumor of the ovary, highlighting an unusual presentation where links between these two rare conditions are still unknown.
