Women with PCOS often have metabolic issues like insulin resistance and a higher risk of diabetes and abnormal lipid levels.

Women with PCOS often have insulin resistance, abnormal lipid levels, and a higher risk of diabetes and heart disease; lifestyle changes and medication like metformin can help manage these risks.

Men with early hair loss may have a higher risk of enlarged prostate and possibly prostate cancer due to shared hormonal factors.

After prostate removal surgery, higher initial prostate size was linked to higher urethral PSA levels and more severe male pattern baldness.

Doctors recommend postoperative radiation for male breast cancer, advise against testosterone for vasomotor symptoms post-adrenalectomy, suggest non-hormonal treatments for atrophic vaginitis after mastectomy, note no specific treatment for anticoagulant-induced hair loss, and call for more research on silicosis from silicon carbide exposure.

Postpartum depression is linked to changes in brain chemicals, inflammation, stress, and certain genes, and can potentially be identified by markers like specific steroids, serotonin levels, and vitamin D levels.

People with PCOS, especially if obese, often have NAFLD, linked to obesity, insulin resistance, and high androgen levels.

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

People with hair loss, especially those with certain types, have lower zinc levels, and zinc supplements might help.

Different women's hair and skin glands respond to hormones in varied ways, which can cause unwanted hair growth even with normal hormone levels, and more research is needed to treat this effectively.

Melatonin and mitotane treatment led to hair re-growth in 62% of dogs with Alopecia X, but this was not always linked to normal hormone levels.

To diagnose Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, two out of three signs—irregular periods, high male hormone levels, or cysts on the ovaries—are needed.

Age, smoking, and lower BMI increase facial wrinkles; men wrinkle more than women, except in old age; pale skin and certain hormonal factors can protect against wrinkles.

5α-Reductase inhibitors can help treat hair loss, acne, and prostate issues by reducing DHT levels.

Testosterone therapy can help improve mood, sexual function, and bone health in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed to establish safe and effective guidelines.

No clear link between hair loss and metabolic syndrome, but some differences in blood pressure and glucose levels.

The document concludes that treating female hair loss should target reducing excess androgen and blocking its effects on hair follicles, with the best treatments being hormonal therapy, adrenal suppression, and topical minoxidil.

Skin problems in PCOS, like excess hair, acne, and hair loss, may not always indicate high male hormone levels and need careful diagnosis for proper treatment.

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.

People in Jeddah know about Vitamin D and its sources but are unclear on how much they need daily, and while many women take supplements, attitudes towards increasing Vitamin D levels vary.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

The document highlights various patents for new compounds with potential treatments for multiple diseases, including cancer, hormonal disorders, and diabetes.

Oral and topical finasteride are effective and safe for treating female hair loss.

Women with only irregular periods or excess hair have a better hormone profile than those with full PCOS, but both groups are similar, indicating a need for better PCOS diagnosis methods.

Men with testicular cancer were less likely to experience baldness and severe acne.

CBG may help with various medical conditions but needs more human research to confirm safety and effectiveness.

Primary care doctors should address female sexual dysfunctions to improve women's sexual health and life quality.

Testosterone therapy seems safe for short-term use in postmenopausal women with low sexual desire, but more research on long-term effects is needed.
