In this study, researchers observed that a significant number of women in Eket, Nigeria, have low testosterone levels, while a subset with high free testosterone may have polycystic ovary syndrome.

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 retrospective study observed that breast cancer treatments disrupted normal blood counts and led to bone marrow suppression, highlighting the need for nutritional counseling to improve patient quality of life.

This study found that livedoid and acro-ischemic skin manifestations were significantly associated with severe COVID-19, while chilblains-like eruptions appeared in less severe cases.

This study reports that among young women, combined oral contraceptives containing chlormadinone, among others, are associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism compared to those containing levonorgestrel with low ethinylestradiol.

In this retrospective study from Jiangsu Province Hospital, researchers reported a high prevalence of pediatric androgenetic alopecia in patients under 18, often associated with hormonal imbalances and comorbid conditions, emphasizing the need for individualized treatment plans that prioritize addressing hormonal disorders and comorbidities.

This study suggests that potent topical corticosteroid occlusion may be a safe and effective treatment option for pediatric patients with severe alopecia areata, although further research is needed on its long-term safety and recurrence.

This study describes an efficient gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method for detecting estrone and 17 beta-estradiol concentrations in hair, finding differing levels in male and female samples.

This report suggests a potential link between hyperprolactinemia and alopecia in women with autoimmune thyroid disease and emphasizes the importance of considering other causes in diagnosis.

This case report illustrates a rare instance of mixed germ cell tumor in the pituitary with hyperandrogenism, emphasizing the importance of thorough examination and hormone evaluation in identifying hormonal dysfunctions.

This article discusses concerns and recommendations from a French-speaking andrology society regarding COVID-19's potential impact on men's reproductive health and calls for further research in this area.

This article discusses the diagnostic approach to symmetrical alopecia in dogs, particularly focusing on conditions affecting the endocrine glands and hair follicles, without presenting new research results.

This article reviews the causes and diagnostic approaches for feline alopecia, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between self-inflicted and spontaneous hair loss, but reports no new results.

This study developed a deep learning-based tool to quantify individual hair fibers in mice, revealing distinct hair phenotypes linked to hormonal, genetic, and age-related factors, and suggesting its potential for new diagnostic methods through hair analysis.

This study documented that symmetrical, noninflammatory alopecia in schipperkes is associated with hormonal abnormalities and hair cycle arrest, resembling Alopecia X clinically and histologically.

This study found that hair steroid profiling is a feasible, non-invasive alternative to serum analysis in adolescents, with androgen levels correlating more strongly with body size and composition in boys than girls.

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 study concluded that neither basal nor ACTH-stimulated 17-OHP concentrations effectively indicate carrier status for 21-hydroxylase deficiency among Slovenian hyperandrogenic women, recommending molecular analysis of the CYP21 gene for reliable screening.

This article reviews acromegaloid facial appearance syndrome and presents a case in a 57-year-old woman, emphasizing the need for more cases to understand its clinical features and inheritance patterns.

This paper reviews hair loss associated with various endocrine disorders and describes both traditional and emerging non-invasive diagnostic methods without presenting any new clinical results.

This study compared serum and hair steroid hormone profiles in adolescents and found that hair steroid profiling is a feasible, non-invasive alternative to serum analysis, with androgen levels in both mediums correlating more strongly with body size and composition in boys than in girls.

Blood tests for tumor cells could improve prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment; hair loss severity linked to a gene affecting prostate conditions.

This review discusses the evaluation of hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men across different life stages and presents biomarkers used for diagnosing male hypogonadism, reporting no new clinical results.

This study observed that gene expression differences in Rex rabbits with varying wool densities suggest the involvement of specific genes and signaling pathways, including Shh and Eph, in hair follicle development.

Skin hormone levels change significantly after menopause.

This study found that hair steroid analysis effectively detected increased hormone levels from both a single testosterone dose and laboratory-induced stress, revealing individual context factors like relationship status also impact hair hormone concentrations.

In this animal study, researchers reported that acetaminophen increased LH and FSH hormones in male rats, with high doses affecting sperm production negatively, while avocado leaf extract reduced sperm motility and viability, suggesting potential adverse effects on male reproductive health.

This study found that CDK4/6 inhibitors in hormone-positive metastatic breast cancer were linked to increased risks of fatigue, alopecia, and stomatitis compared to placebo.

This study found that young men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia have a worse glycolipid profile and hormone pattern similar to women's PCOS, suggesting a possible male PCOS-equivalent syndrome.

This study used transcriptome analysis to explore the genetic mechanisms behind the development and seasonal variation of nuptial pads in R. chensinensis, identifying key genes and processes that suggest the pads' development involves complex regulatory pathways, particularly those related to cell cycle and hormone synthesis.
