The research found that polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has two distinct types, with one having more severe hormone and insulin issues.

The normal human prostate does not significantly affect blood DHT levels.

Simvastatin may help manage symptoms in women with non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia by lowering cholesterol and certain hormone levels.

Leonuri Herba alkaloids may help treat hormone-induced enlarged prostate in rats.

The treatment effectively reduced hair growth and was safe for patients with PCOS, but it needs better bleeding control.

Testosterone pellets might work for transgender men's hormone therapy, but more research is needed.

The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.

Small changes in hormones can significantly impact health, showing the importance of sensitive testing for chemicals that disrupt hormones.

Estrogen increases blood vessel growth factor production, while testosterone blocks this increase.

The birth control pill with only progestogen can cause a false alarm in a hormone test.

Doxil showed some effectiveness against advanced prostate cancer but caused severe side effects at higher doses.

Sex hormones, especially estradiol, can change chicken feather shapes and colors.

Paeonia lactiflora and Poria cocos extracts can potentially increase hair growth and reduce hair loss symptoms by lowering testosterone and inflammation levels.

Increased free testosterone can lead to stronger bones and less body fat but also higher risks of prostate cancer, hair loss, spine issues, and high blood pressure.

Testosterone treatment in trans men increases body and facial hair and may lead to hair loss over time, but severe skin issues are rare.

Furless male rabbits grew slightly faster and heavier than furred ones, but testosterone levels were not the cause.

Hormones like estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, and prolactin play complex roles in female sexual function, with testosterone potentially improving sexual desire, arousal, and satisfaction. However, more research is needed to establish safe and effective hormone treatments for female sexual dysfunction.

Testosterone therapy can modestly improve sexual function in menopausal women but should be used cautiously and is not recommended for routine measurement in sexual dysfunction or hirsutism.

A woman's excessive hair growth was caused by a rare benign tumor in her adrenal gland, which was successfully removed.
