This case report details a postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism due to both adrenal adenoma and ovarian hyperthecosis, highlighting the effectiveness of hormonal suppression and venous sampling for diagnosis.

This article discusses the potential of acupuncture as a complementary or alternative therapy for PCOS, highlighting experimental evidence of its positive effects on reproductive and metabolic function, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses pharmacologic treatments for male sexual offenders, focusing on reducing sexual drive through nonhormonal or hormonal means, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that cyproterone acetate treatment in late-pubertal trans-girls was safe, well-tolerated, and induced mild feminizing changes, with more pronounced effects when combined with estrogens.

This study observed that deslorelin acetate implants reduced sexual activity and improved coat quality in a German Spitz dog with alopecia X, suggesting its potential as a less invasive and reversible treatment for managing reproductive function and this dermatopathy.

This study presents the first report on cloning and characterizing the full-length cDNA of SRD5A1 in Indian catfish (Clarias magur), revealing expression differences across reproductive phases and increased expression post-Ovatide administration in ovaries and testis.

This study found that GnRH-a treatment or orchiectomy, which required significantly lower doses of oral estradiol valerate, were more effective than anti-androgens like spironolactone and finasteride in achieving target hormone levels in transgender females in India.

This case report details a diagnosis of adult-onset isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism in a 23-year-old African American female, highlighting its genetic basis and treatment approach.

This review provides an educational resource on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, detailing its pathophysiology and complications, and reports no new clinical results.

This infographic reviews the pathophysiology and complications of PCOS, illustrating how genetic and environmental factors contribute to its development, and highlights associated metabolic and neuroendocrine effects.

In this case report, a 25-year-old transgender woman on testosterone-blocking therapy developed generalised hypertrichosis after starting ciclosporin for severe plaque psoriasis, illustrating that ciclosporin can induce this side effect even under androgen suppression.

This study found that a nomogram prediction model based on clinical characteristics, bone metabolism, and ovarian function can effectively predict the treatment response to long-acting GnRHa in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty.

In this case study, a 68-year-old woman with hyperandrogenism and presumed ovarian origin responded well to GnRH agonist therapy, normalizing testosterone levels and stabilizing blood pressure, suggesting its effectiveness as a non-surgical treatment option.

This source describes the first successful use of a deslorelin acetate implant to treat alopecia X in a neutered female dog, achieving profuse hair regrowth in 9 months, suggesting an uncomplicated and cost-effective alternative after melatonin failure.

This meta-analysis found that while both Dienogest and GnRH analogues effectively managed endometriosis-related pain, Dienogest reduced recurrence rates and hot flushes but increased irregular bleeding, making it a safer option due to fewer side effects.

This study found that women treated with GnRHa for central precocious puberty had a higher prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome in adulthood compared to those with isolated premature thelarche.

In this case report, a 55-year-old postmenopausal woman was diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis as the cause of her hyperandrogenism after detailed hormonal and imaging investigations, which was successfully treated with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, leading to symptom improvement and normalized testosterone levels.

In this case study, researchers observed a 5.8-year-old male with peripheral precocious puberty due to a germ cell tumor, marked by elevated human chorionic gonadotropin levels. Treatment normalized hormone levels and arrested the puberty progression, highlighting melatonin's potential role in transitions to central precocious puberty.

In this study of a postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism, GnRH agonist treatment significantly reduced testosterone levels, suggesting the androgen excess was ovarian in origin and indicating the potential of using GnRH agonists as a conservative treatment option when surgery is not feasible.

This paper addresses diagnostic criteria and treatment options for polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing lifestyle changes and combination oral contraceptives as primary management strategies, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this case study, laparoscopic bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy was associated with reduced androgen levels and partial reversal of male-pattern hair loss in a postmenopausal woman with ovarian hyperandrogenism.

This study reported that testosterone levels over 150 ng/dL combined with lack of testosterone suppression during a low-dose dexamethasone suppression test may indicate androgen-producing tumors, though this wasn't consistent across all cases.

This study describes a postmenopausal woman's diagnosis with ovarian hyperthecosis, confirmed by a GnRHa test normalizing testosterone, highlighting hormone therapy as a therapeutic option when surgery is not feasible.

This review outlines the diagnostic criteria and management strategies for polycystic ovary syndrome, focusing on hyperandrogenism's cutaneous manifestations, such as hirsutism and acne, and describes treatments like oral contraceptives and antiandrogens to address these issues.

This review discusses female hyperandrogenism, detailing diagnostic criteria and treatment options without reporting new study results; it emphasizes improving health and quality of life for affected women.

This article updates on the medical management of benign prostatic hyperplasia in companion animals and reports no new clinical findings; the authors discuss existing treatments.

This retrospective study found that cyproterone acetate, both alone and with estrogens, was safe, well tolerated, and induced modest feminizing effects in late-pubertal transgender female adolescents.

This review discusses hormonal therapies for acne related to endocrine disorders and provides practical guidelines for managing hormonally influenced acne in clinical practice, but reports no new clinical results.

This study suggests that ultrasound and color Doppler analyses may enhance the differential diagnosis of GnRH-dependent precocious puberty in girls with premature breast development or pubic hair growth.

This study found that girls with isolated premature thelarche, confirmed by GnRH stimulation test, aged 4-8 years, may have significantly advanced bone age, with obesity and serum IGF-1 and DHEAS levels being key risk factors.
