This article discusses the potential of using flutamide and finasteride for complete androgen blockade in early-stage, low-grade prostate cancer and suggests they may improve symptom-free and overall survival compared to observation.

This review found that hormonal therapies, including FDA-approved combined oral contraceptive pills and spironolactone, are effective and well-tolerated treatments for acne vulgaris in adolescents with or without endocrine disorders, providing alternative options to antibiotics.

This study concluded that prepubertal girls with hypertrichosis have androgen receptors with enhanced sensitivity, which may contribute to their increased body hair growth.

This study found that while hormone replacement therapy can improve skin aging in menopausal women, inconsistent findings and a lack of robust clinical trials mean it isn't recommended purely for skin benefits.

This study reports that psoriasis prevalence among transgender individuals is similar to that in the general population, with possible links to gender-affirming hormone therapy needing more research.

This review discusses the use of CDK4/6 inhibitors with endocrine therapy in treating women with HR+ HER2- advanced breast cancer, but it reports no new clinical findings.

Hormones cause hair loss by affecting cell growth and weakening cell attraction.

This review analyzed past research on hormonal treatments for hidradenitis suppurativa, finding that anti-androgens like finasteride and spironolactone, along with metformin, showed promise but large-scale trials are needed to understand their full potential.

This chapter discusses the sources, classifications, and effects of hormones, their role in disease treatment and food security, and reports no new results.

In this study, researchers found that young men with premature androgenetic alopecia had a hormonal profile similar to the pattern seen in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting a possible genetic link.

Finasteride treats hair loss but may affect prostate cancer detection.

This study found that castration increased 5 alpha-reductase activity in the sebaceous glands of male hamsters, but administering testosterone propionate or 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone inhibited this effect.

This study found that women with polycystic ovary syndrome have higher insulin resistance and lower serum high-molecular weight adiponectin, which may play a role in the condition's pathogenesis.

Sex hormones might influence bladder cancer development, and aromatase inhibitors could increase risk in postmenopausal women.

This study observed that areola formation in mice requires exposure to pregnancy hormones and mechanical strain, beyond individual stimuli like hormonal milieu or strain alone.

In this study, elevated prolactin and DHEA-S levels along with reduced SBP were observed in fertile non-obese women with moderate body hair compared to controls, and ethynylestradiol plus desogestrel or cyproterone acetate treatment improved clinical outcomes by increasing SBP.

This literature review highlights varying recommendations for testosterone use in peri- and postmenopausal women, noting its accepted role in treating hypoactive sexual desire disorder but stressing controversy and lack of FDA-approved options for broader use.

This review describes oncotherapy-induced alopecia in patients receiving hormone therapy for hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer and concludes that topical hormones should not be used due to oncogenic potential.

Hormonal contraceptives and therapies regulate organ functions and treat various conditions.

This study identified Aquilaria sinensis and Piper cubeba as tropical plants with potential anti-androgenic and anti-estrogenic properties that could help prevent or alleviate benign prostatic hyperplasia and prostate cancer.

Small hormonal imbalances can cause significant health problems, so more sensitive testing for hormone-disrupting chemicals is needed.
