The researchers reported that both estrogen receptors ERα and ERβ are expressed in human testis, and identified two novel genes, Aven and Regucalcin, linked to estrogen and androgen regulation, which may be crucial for spermatogenesis.

This review examines treatment options for PCOS, highlighting the importance of managing symptoms and patient counseling, and reports no new clinical results.

This narrative review discusses the hormonal control of hair growth, particularly focusing on dihydrotestosterone and its role in the pilosebaceous unit and androgen-related hair conditions, and does not report new findings.

This study found that the absence of sebaceous glands may be an early factor in the development of keratosis pilaris, leading to hair shaft and skin barrier abnormalities, independent of filaggrin mutations.

Women with acne after adolescence are more likely to have PCOS and should be checked for it.

In this study, patients with lichen planopilaris showed higher prevalence of autoimmune disorders like Hashimoto's thyroiditis and hypothyroidism compared to those with seborrheic dermatitis.

This article proposes a hypothesis that hyperandrogenemia is the final common pathway for developing adolescent PCOS and emphasizes the importance of reducing androgen levels to mitigate risks of metabolic syndrome, diabetes, and infertility in adulthood.

This study found that free testosterone levels were a more sensitive indicator of hyperandrogenism in women with acne than total testosterone levels.

This study suggests that hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic men is associated with altered sex-steroid metabolism, indicated by lower testosterone and 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone levels compared to cirrhosis alone.

This study found an association between atopic dermatitis and autoimmune diseases in both adults and children, with women more likely to experience these complications, but further research is needed due to limited participant numbers.

This review discusses the genetic and androgen-related factors in androgenetic alopecia, highlighting a specific polymorphism in the AR protein associated with male pattern hair loss, and reports no new clinical results.

This study reported that women with polycystic ovarian syndrome have higher serum irisin levels, which are associated with metabolic and hormonal imbalances, including hyperandrogenism, total cholesterol, and visceral fat.

In this prospective observational study at a tertiary care center in Uttar Pradesh, researchers observed that comprehensive, individualized treatments significantly improved clinical outcomes for South Asian women with PCOS, including reductions in BMI and improvements in insulin sensitivity, ovulation, and pregnancy rates.

Women with effluvium have higher levels of certain urinary steroids, possibly due to stress and increased adrenal activity.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia who also met criteria for the male PCOS-equivalent may have impaired gonadal steroidogenesis, suggesting increased risk of future gonadal dysfunction.

This study observed that a longer anterior clitoral anogenital distance (AGDAC) is associated with polycystic ovary syndrome in adult Mediterranean women.

This review discusses various hair removal methods, including physical, hormonal, and laser treatment, providing an overview of their advantages and disadvantages without presenting new clinical findings.

This review explores treatment approaches for excess male-pattern body hair in women and emphasizes the importance of effective management, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that finasteride altered androgen receptor expression in the rat epididymis without affecting the morphology of epididymal epithelium, suggesting a change in hormonal status.

This research found evidence of inflammatory involvement in androgenetic alopecia, with higher deposition of certain immune components in the scalp of affected patients compared to those without baldness.

In this study, certain genetic variations in the ESR1 and ESR2 genes were strongly associated with polycystic ovary syndrome and related metabolic issues in Tunisian women.

This review covers clinical studies on using homoeopathy to treat PCOS and concludes that further rigorous research is necessary to substantiate its effectiveness.

This review explores the potential benefits of non-psychoactive Cannabidiol for reducing stress and pain associated with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and reports no new clinical findings.

This article notes slow progression and spontaneous stabilization in untreated cases of a specific scarring alopecia and reports no new results; the authors call for randomized trials to confirm the treatment's benefit.

This article reviews approaches to managing hirsutism but does not report new clinical findings.

This study conducted a meta-analysis and found that men with both frontal and vertex male pattern baldness have a slightly increased risk of developing prostate cancer, though most data was from Caucasian populations and effect modification by genetic variations was not assessed.

This study found that elevated luteinizing hormone levels were significantly associated with female pattern hair loss, and implicated LH/LHR signaling in the aging and damage of hair follicles.

In this study, overweight women with polycystic ovarian syndrome who took evening primrose oil for 10 weeks experienced significant reductions in BMI, LDL, and total cholesterol levels, alongside hormonal changes such as decreased LH, FSH, and testosterone levels, and increased estrogen.

In this study, researchers identified specific SNPs associated with polycystic ovarian syndrome in women from Karnataka, which could improve understanding of genetic mechanisms and aid in future diagnosis and treatment efforts.

This study found that female adolescents with pilonidal sinus disease had significantly higher insulin levels and HOMA-IR scores, suggesting hyperinsulinemia may be a risk factor for the condition.
