Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.

Two new compounds were found to build bone and muscle without affecting reproductive organs and skin oil glands.

Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.

Minoxidil can reduce functions related to androgen receptors.

People with Parkinson's disease have higher levels of cortisone in their hair, which may indicate chronic stress hormone dysfunction.

The more lipophilic the progesterone derivative, the better it binds to androgen receptors and has antiandrogenic effects.
