Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.

Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.

New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.

The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.

Male genital development is driven by androgen signaling and understanding it could help address congenital anomalies.

Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.

Glucocorticoids and sex hormones affect skin health, with potential for targeted treatments to minimize side effects and treat skin conditions.

The vitamin D receptor is crucial for bone health and affects various body systems, with mutations potentially leading to disease.

High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.

Androgenic steroids can slow down or stop the growth of certain skin fungi.

The over-the-counter supplement DHEA could make COVID-19 worse, especially in diabetics and people with G6PD deficiency.

Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.

Low androgen levels might delay prostate cancer but could lead to more aggressive, therapy-resistant cancers.

High doses of testosterone disrupt hormone levels and receptor expression in the uterus, affecting fertility.

Three compounds were found to inhibit a prostate disease-related enzyme and reduce prostate size more effectively than the current treatment, suggesting they could be used for treating benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Male hormones may play a role in the development of heart disease, and more research is needed to understand their effects.

The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.

Androgens can both increase body hair and cause scalp hair loss.

Anabolic steroids can build muscle and strength but have risks and need more research on their clinical benefits and side effects.

Men, especially older ones with health issues like prostate cancer, may have worse COVID-19 outcomes and could benefit from therapies targeting male hormones.

Steroids, particularly estrogens and 5α-reductase inhibitors, affect blood vessel-related hair growth processes in hair follicle cells.

Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.

The document explains how the male reproductive system works, its role in making testosterone, and how conditions like obesity can disrupt it, leading to low testosterone and fertility issues.

RU 58841 may treat acne, hair loss, and excessive hair growth.

The conclusion is that androgenetic alopecia and senescent alopecia have unique gene changes, suggesting different causes and potential treatments for these hair loss types.

Hormonal treatment is effective for women with acne not helped by usual treatments, especially if they have hormonal imbalances.

Hair loss needs more research for better treatments.

Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.

Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.

Asian hair loss differs from Europeans; consider individual needs and psychological well-being for treatment.
