This review discusses the therapeutic use of insulin-sensitizing agents in polycystic ovary syndrome, reporting improved ovulation, insulin sensitivity, and reduction of hyperandrogenism, but calls for larger studies to confirm these effects.

This review discusses factors affecting fertility in both men and women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia and emphasizes individualized preconception management but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the diagnostic complexities of PCOS and emphasizes the importance of differentiating between polycystic ovaries and polycystic ovary syndrome; it presents no new experimental results.

This review discusses the relationship between hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance in PCOS, focusing on insulin dynamics, molecular mechanisms, genetic studies, and potential long-term treatments, but presents no new clinical results.

This study found that using an oral contraceptive with bicalutamide significantly reduced hirsutism in women with PCOS compared to an oral contraceptive alone, although it increased total cholesterol and LDL levels.

This review examines the benefits and potential risks of androgen replacement therapy for male hypogonadism but reports no new clinical results; the authors highlight the need for careful risk assessment, especially in older men.

This study suggests that acne is often associated with hyperandrogenemia in women, contradicting previous recommendations that acne is not linked to androgen excess disorders.

This study found that male pattern hair loss may be associated with differences in serum levels of androstenedione, cortisol, 17 beta-estradiol, and luteinizing hormone, compared to controls.

This article reviews existing knowledge on postmenopausal hyperandrogenism and highlights diagnostic challenges, reporting no new clinical results.

This study identified polycystic ovarian syndrome as the most common cause of hirsutism among patients and found a positive correlation between hirsutism severity and free testosterone levels.

In this study, acne and hirsutism in women were associated with a higher prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome compared to those without these conditions.

A combined drug and laser treatment improved hirsutism in a PCOS patient, also enhancing her heart health and requiring regular liver and kidney checks.

This review discusses adrenal gland disease in ferrets, exploring its signs, potential contributing factors, and current treatment options, but it reports no new clinical results.

This case study reports successful treatment of a 19-year-old with Satoyoshi syndrome using a combination of carbamazepine, methotrexate, prednisolone, and sex-steroids, improving muscle spasms, alopecia, and quality of life.

In this study, low-dose finasteride (2.5 mg/day) significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women over 12 months without significant hormonal changes or serious side effects.

In this study, spironolactone treatment reduced hair growth in 17 out of 30 patients with hirsutism, but was less effective compared to cyproterone acetate–estrogen therapy.

This review discusses the clinical features, genetics, and treatment of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new research findings.

This study suggests that androstendione and DHEA are useful indicators for diagnosing hyperandrogenemia in hirsute women, while DHEAS was not found to be helpful.

In this case report, a 5-year-old girl experienced extensive hypertrichosis after using topical minoxidil lotion unsupervised, which regressed after discontinuation, highlighting the need for medical oversight.

This study found that young women with nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia had impaired sexual function and mild depressive symptoms compared to healthy women.

This case study describes an extremely rare instance of androgen-secreting adrenocortical carcinoma in a patient with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This paper discusses androgenetic alopecia, its causes, synonyms, and patterns, but reports no new findings or clinical results.

This study found that normal ALT levels in women of reproductive age are linked with metabolic and androgenic abnormalities, suggesting ALT could be used beyond liver disease diagnoses.

This study found that topically administered spironolactone in healthy volunteers resulted in no detectable systemic absorption or changes in related hormone levels over 72 hours, indicating local effect only.

In this review, the authors aim to improve the differential diagnosis between hyperandrogenic PCOS and NCAH, which could lead to more personalized treatment strategies for patients experiencing hyperandrogenism.

This article reviews the causes and management of hirsutism, reports no new results, and emphasizes that prolonged pharmaceutical treatment is necessary for improvement.

This chapter reviews hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets, covering its causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options, but reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers found that finasteride inhibits progesterone synthesis by blocking cholesterol side-chain cleavage in mouse-derived MA-10 Leydig cells, but this effect may not be evident in human or rat cells.

This case study describes a 15-year-old girl with a Sertoli–Leydig cell tumor who showed high androgen levels and steroidogenic responses similar to patients with polycystic ovary syndrome before surgery.
