Treatment with a hormone agonist can reduce excess male hormones in postmenopausal women without surgery.

In this study, women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed adverse lipoprotein profile changes that increase cardiovascular risk, which were found to be more closely related to androgen levels than body weight.

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

This review examines hormonal influences on acne development and available hormonal therapies but reports no new clinical results.

The exact cause of growth hormone-responsive alopecia in dogs is unclear.

The study concluded that serum AMH is a useful tool for diagnosing polycystic ovarian morphology in women with persistent acne, potentially replacing transvaginal ultrasound, though it does not correlate with hyperandrogenemia.

This study found that women with epilepsy on carbamazepine and sodium valproate monotherapy experienced more significant weight gain but showed no difference in PCOS incidence compared to phenytoin users; elevated TSH levels were more common among those on sodium valproate.

This study observed that among Iraqi women with hirsutism, most had hypothyroidism and elevated hormone levels, particularly DHEAS and testosterone, with acne being the most common associated clinical feature.

This study found that individuals with a recent history of suicide attempts exhibited altered DHEA hair levels, suggesting possible dysregulation of the HPA axis as a biopsychosocial feature, and recommends further investigation into hair hormones as potential markers of suicidal crisis and vulnerability.

In this study, researchers observed that administering the minimum dose of levothyroxine to a hypothyroid Dalmatian effectively restored normal skin condition and hormonal levels, suggesting levothyroxine's potential effectiveness in managing skin changes caused by hypothyroidism in dogs.

This review discusses sex differences in the neuroendocrine response to stress, focusing primarily on rodent studies, and highlights open questions about the roles of gonadal hormones and sex chromosomes.

This study developed a new method using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to measure multiple steroid hormones in hair, requiring significantly fewer strands than previous methods, with high accuracy and precision.

In this study, PTH–CBD displayed dose-dependent effects in reducing hair loss and enhancing hair regrowth in a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This article discusses female pattern hair loss and concludes that the utility of lab markers for screening associated conditions remains unclear; no new clinical results are presented.

This article reviews sex disparities in COVID-19 outcomes and explores the influence of sex hormones on disease severity, but it reports no new results; further studies are ongoing.

This study found that both a high dose of CPA and GnRHa are effective for treating hirsutism in hyperandrogenic women, but GnRHa with add-back therapy may lead to a longer remission period.

In this cross-sectional study, researchers observed that patients with hidradenitis suppurativa, particularly women, had lower 2D:4D finger length ratios compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential link to prenatal androgen exposure and disease severity, though further prospective research is needed to confirm this hormonal impact.

This study found that women with PCOS who have an exaggerated 17-hydroxyprogesterone response to buserelin exhibit more severe hyperandrogenemia, increased insulin secretion, and reduced insulin sensitivity.

This study established a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome due to a specific Crh mutation, which may help explore the effects of glucocorticoid excess and evaluate treatments for corticosteroid-induced osteoporosis.

This study suggests that testosterone therapy in AFAB individuals may modify the methylation of the ESR2 promoter, with changes influenced by factors like total testosterone levels and age.

This review discusses the impact of hormones on female sexual function and dysfunction, highlighting the complexity and gaps in basic research, and reports no new clinical findings.

This study models the pathways of nandrolone and its metabolites in the body and suggests methods to counteract finasteride's role in enabling PED users to cheat drug tests.

In this study, women with a complete hydatidiform mole had significantly higher pre-evacuation levels of hCG, free testosterone, and DHEA-S compared to controls, which declined after HM evacuation.

This study found that protease nexin-1 mRNA is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and is downregulated by dihydrotestosterone in balding scalp, suggesting a role in male-pattern baldness progression.

Androgenetic alopecia treatments focus on reducing hair loss by targeting hormones, with new therapies showing promise but needing more research.

This case report describes a unique instance where elevated prolactin levels from a pituitary adenoma were associated with hirsutism due to increased dihydrotestosterone, with treatment leading to normalization.

This study found that diagnosing nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia in women based solely on serum 17OHP measurements can lead to false positives, suggesting the need for urinary steroid profiles and genetic testing for confirmation.

In this study, the authors concluded that clinical hyperandrogenism is not a reliable predictor for biochemical hyperandrogenism in Thai women with PCOS.

This study observed that extracellular ATP (eATP) levels outside Arabidopsis root cells vary inversely with the expression of AtAPY1 and AtAPY2 apyrases, suggesting these enzymes regulate eATP concentrations crucial for root growth.

This study found that high prepubertal and pubertal androgen levels, originating from both adrenal and gonadal secretion, were negatively associated with adult height outcomes in males with Silver-Russell syndrome.
