In this study, conducted during the 22nd FIFA World Cup in Qatar, doping control analysis of 1612 samples showed negative results for prohibited substances, except for two instances each of codeine and carboxy finasteride.

In this case report, an 18-year-old Vietnamese female with primary amenorrhea and normal female phenotype was most likely diagnosed with müllerian agenesis, highlighting its association with embryologic underdevelopment of the müllerian duct.

A thorough initial check-up is essential before sperm banking to ensure the best chance of preserving good quality sperm.

This review discusses the use of hair analysis for examining stress and reproduction hormone levels in wildlife and highlights the need for more comprehensive physiological validations across species.

This review outlines a diagnostic approach for identifying non-PCOS pathology in women with androgen excess, emphasizing the importance of clinical history and biochemical phenotyping but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses various diagnostic categories and treatments for hyperandrogenism, with a focus on polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new clinical findings, calling for specific treatments and lifestyle changes.

These guidelines recommend testing thyroid function in patients with obesity due to common hypothyroidism, and highlight that weight loss is crucial for addressing hormonal imbalances, with only modest weight loss benefits from treating endocrine disorders.

This case report details a postmenopausal woman with increased libido, hirsutism, and spontaneous orgasms, noting elevated testosterone levels and enlarged ovaries.

In this study, researchers developed and tested a novel peptide, AMHR2BP, which mimics the function of Anti-Müllerian hormone to protect ovarian follicles in mice, showing promise for preserving ovarian health during chemotherapy without causing toxicity.

This study presents two adolescent cases of ovarian hyperthecosis, a rare cause of severe hyperandrogenism, highlighting management strategies involving gonadotropin suppression and hormone replacement after excluding androgen-producing adrenal and ovarian tumors.

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.

Amenorrhea is relatively rare and initial testing should check FSH, TSH, and prolactin levels.

This review discusses various substances that can impact male fertility and stresses that products should be confirmed 'sperm-safe' through rigorous testing, not assumptions; it reports no new study results.

In this case report, a male patient with hair loss showed unusually high testosterone levels without other symptoms or supplement use; follow-up testing revealed normal levels, showcasing the importance of considering testosterone-protein binding differences and using equilibrium dialysis for accurate assessment.

This review discusses the importance of androgen production and metabolism in hyperandrogenism, the use of specific serum markers for diagnosis, and the need for improved assays for clinical testing, but reports no new results.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with virilization linked to ovarian stromal hyperthecosis, highlighting the importance of detailed clinical evaluation and complementary testing for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

This study reported the development of fluorescent markers using wide band gap metal oxides with rare earth ions for early tumor detection and treatment. Testing in animals showed high efficiency and selectivity, with potential applications in contrast-enhanced MRI, targeted drug delivery, and photodynamic cancer therapy.

In this study, a child's diagnosis of Silver-Russell syndrome was confirmed through phenotype data, genetic testing, and the exclusion of other developmental conditions, revealing a need for a multidisciplinary care approach.

This review discusses hirsutism management guidelines, recommending androgen testing only for women with abnormal hirsutism scores and advocating for combined therapy approaches depending on severity and underlying conditions, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discussed the variability in measuring serum testosterone levels and emphasized the need for standardizing testing and sharing updated treatment protocols to manage male hypogonadism effectively. It also highlighted the importance of considering secondary hypogonadism causes and suggested consulting with endocrinologists for optimal management.

This paper discusses four rare causes of hyperandrogenism in women, emphasizing the importance of detailed biochemical testing and invasive diagnostic tools when imaging fails to identify ovarian tumors.

This study developed a method using HPLC with UV-DAD and ESI-MS detection to identify prohibited substances like minoxidil and hormones in cosmetic products advertised online for hair loss and skin conditions.

In this case study, a 62-year-old woman with severe hyperandrogenism underwent a clomiphene test, which suggested an ovarian origin for her condition, leading to the discovery of a Leydig cell tumor after a bilateral oophorectomy.
