We need better ways to test and understand SARMs to make safer and more effective treatments.
research The Androgen Excess and PCOS Society Criteria for the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: The Complete Task Force Report
The report concludes that PCOS is mainly a condition of excess male hormones and its definition may change as new information is discovered.
research Significant Effects of Mild Endogenous Hormonal Changes in Humans: Considerations for Low-Dose Testing
Small hormonal imbalances can cause significant health problems, so more sensitive testing for hormone-disrupting chemicals is needed.
research Hyperandrogenism and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Women with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus
Women with type 1 diabetes often have polycystic ovary syndrome and excess male hormones, which are frequently undiagnosed.
research The Aromatase Inhibitor Fadrozole and the 5-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride Affect Gonadal Differentiation and Gene Expression in the Frog Silurana Tropicalis
Fadrozole and Finasteride change frog sex ratios and cause intersex animals with altered gene expressions.
research Regulation of Masculinization: Androgen Signaling for External Genitalia Development
Male genital development is driven by androgen signaling and understanding it could help address congenital anomalies.
research Salivary Testosterone Levels in Infertile Men
Men with low or no sperm count have lower salivary testosterone levels, and saliva testing can measure their testosterone well.
research Chapter 17: Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs)
Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are drugs that can control the effects of androgens in different tissues, potentially having fewer side effects and promising for treating various conditions.
research Menopausal Androgen Excess-Associated Cardio-Metabolic Risk: Clues for Ovarian Leydig Cell Tumor (Case Report and Mini-Review of Literature)
High androgen levels in postmenopausal women may suggest an ovarian tumor, and removing it can improve heart and metabolic health.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: A Comprehensive Review
The document concludes that early diagnosis and treatment of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia are crucial for preventing serious health issues and improving patient outcomes.
research Androgens and Hair: A Biological Paradox with Clinical Consequences
Androgens can both increase body hair and cause scalp hair loss.
research Side Effects of Androgen Deprivation Therapy: Monitoring and Minimizing Toxicity
Androgen deprivation therapy for prostate cancer can cause sexual, physical, and psychological side effects, and doctors should manage these carefully.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Its Differential Diagnosis
The document concludes that correct diagnosis and management of PCOS are important, and more research is needed on its risks and treatments.
research Genomic and Transcriptomic Characterization of Atypical Recurrent Flank Alopecia in the Cesky Fousek
The study found that the hair loss condition in Cesky Fousek dogs is influenced by multiple genes affecting skin and muscle structure, fat metabolism, and immunity.
research Reproductive Dysfunction in Women With Epilepsy: Recommendations for Evaluation and Management
Women with epilepsy should be monitored for reproductive issues, which can be caused by epilepsy or its treatments, especially when using valproate.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Current Concepts in Aesthetic Endocrinology
Hormones affect skin aging and fat distribution, and treatments can help, but only minoxidil is proven for female hair loss.
research Endocrinology
The document concludes that inflammation markers can be used in diabetes, vitamin D3 affects immune pathways, hyperthyroidism changes hormone levels, androgen levels help diagnose Adrenocortical Carcinoma, erectile dysfunction is linked to diabetes, hypogonadism is common in HIV-infected males, and hormones can be biomarkers for various conditions.
research Metabolism and Skin Diseases
Skin health and diseases are closely linked to metabolic processes.
research Recent Advances in Drug Design and Drug Discovery for Androgen-Dependent Diseases
New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Antagonism Improves Glucose Metabolism in a Mouse Model of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Blocking glucocorticoid receptors improves glucose metabolism in a PCOS mouse model.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Signaling Pathways and Targeted Therapeutic Strategies for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Effective PCOS treatments require targeting specific signaling pathways.
research Impact of Androgen Status and Anti-Androgen Therapy on the Course of COVID-19 in Men
Men with higher androgen levels may have severe COVID-19 symptoms, but those on antiandrogen therapy are less likely to contract the virus and have milder symptoms. Anti-androgen drugs could potentially treat COVID-19, but more research is needed.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in Adolescents
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) in teenagers is a complex condition linked to genetics and environment, often associated with obesity and insulin resistance, and is treated with lifestyle changes and medication.
