In this case report, a transgender woman with refractory epilepsy began estrogen therapy for gender-affirming purposes, experiencing stable epilepsy and reduced gender dysphoria through ongoing multidisciplinary care, highlighting the importance of careful management for similar patients.

This study found that GnRH-A treatment significantly reduced hirsuties scores in women with mild idiopathic hirsuties but did not affect hair growth rate or diameter.

This study found that low doses of leuprolide effectively suppressed serum estradiol and LH response, while higher doses were needed to suppress testosterone and reduce hair growth in hirsute women.

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 article reviews the potential neuroprotective effects of 17α‐estradiol in neurodegenerative diseases and highlights its possibly lower toxicity compared to more feminizing hormones, but it reports no new clinical findings.

In this case report, a transgender woman experienced scalp hair regrowth after approximately six months of oral estradiol and spironolactone treatment, achieving testosterone levels within the normal female range.

The estradiol valerate/dienogest oral contraceptive helps with heavy periods, may improve acne and symptoms in PCOS, and doesn't affect sexual function.

This study found that in estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer cells, 17β-estradiol repressed polyamine oxidase transcription by interacting with AP-1 sites on its promoter.

In this study, an ultra-low dose combination of estradiol and dydrogesterone significantly reduced hot flushes and improved health-related quality of life among a multi-ethnic population of postmenopausal women, with no notable difference in serious adverse events compared to placebo.

This study found that hair and nails can effectively measure hormone changes such as testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone during the peripubertal period in dogs, with variations observed between males and females at specific developmental stages.

This review discusses the 2011 publications on the side effects of sex hormones and related compounds, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, female patients undergoing hormone replacement therapy showed improvements in frontal hairline appearance and increased hair plucking strength, suggesting positive effects of estradiol on hair growth while excluding age-related factors.

This study found that steroid hormone levels in human hair correlate significantly with those in serum, suggesting hair may be a viable medium for assessing hormonal status.

This study found that experienced Australian prescribers of hormone therapy for transgender adults often follow international guidelines but highlight the need for better training and specific local guidelines.

This study found that both declining levels of the neurosteroid THP and increasing levels of estradiol before puberty trigger maximal expression of α4βδ GABAA receptors in the CA1 hippocampus of female mice.

This study suggests that progesterone may have a complex role in absence epilepsy, facilitating seizures through conversion to allopregnanolone, but potentially reducing them during pregnancy.

This study found that exposing seasonally anestrous mares to extended light periods led to the earlier onset of endocrinologically normal estrous cycles, potentially allowing earlier breeding and foaling.

This study found that thyroxine increased hair growth rate in rats, but estradiol decreased it, with both hormones affecting follicular cycles independently without altering ultimate hair length.

This study found that medroxyprogesterone acetate treatment in women with PCOS reduced hyperandrogenism-related hormonal levels and improved skin conditions without affecting lipid or carbohydrate metabolism.

This report describes a case of meningioma in a transwoman treated long-term with estradiol and cyproterone acetate, suggesting possible concern over female sex steroids and meningioma risk.

This study found that in dogs with alopecia, certain steroid hormone levels were elevated, particularly progesterone, but not all hormone abnormalities were consistent across breeds, suggesting the need for breed-specific evaluation.

This study found that measuring reproductive hormone levels in brown bear hair may effectively support non-invasive genetic sampling, though larger samples or more sensitive techniques are needed for broader application.

This study found that low levels of SHBG and testosterone were associated with higher mortality in men with severe COVID-19.

This study found that hair products commonly used by Black women exhibited hormonal activity, which could impact health outcomes and contribute to health disparities.

In this study, epilation in female rats generally accelerated hair eruption, especially in successive cycles, with variations influenced by hormonal treatments and timing within the hair growth cycle.

This study found weak to very weak correlations between estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone levels in the cerebrospinal fluid and serum of males without cerebral disorders.

This study found that treatment with a GnRH agonist and estrogen and progestin replacement significantly improved hirsutism scores and hair growth rates in women with polycystic ovarian disease.

This study reports that transdermal exposure to owners' topical hormone replacement therapy caused alopecia in six dogs, but the condition resolved after the therapy was discontinued.

This study found that progesterone levels were higher and increased significantly throughout pregnancy, contrasting with stable levels in non-pregnant women.

In this study, 12 months of cyproterone acetate and ethinyl oestradiol treatment significantly reduced hair growth rate and certain hormone levels in hirsute women, though hair density and prolactin levels remained unchanged.
