In this study, researchers observed that male COVID-19 patients with more than 23 CAG repeats in the androgen receptor gene and lower testosterone levels experienced more severe disease outcomes.

This study highlights that acne is a common issue for transgender men undergoing testosterone therapy, with management generally following similar guidelines as for cisgender individuals.

High-dose androgen therapy can help manage certain types of androgen resistance.

The woman's symptoms and tests suggest her adrenal glands are producing too many male hormones.

This study found that in men with high genetic risk factors for polycystic ovary syndrome, there was an associated increase in obesity, type 2 diabetes, coronary artery disease, and androgenic conditions, suggesting these genetic factors can act independently of ovarian function.

This study suggests that DHT may have a less potent effect on the prostate compared to testosterone while maintaining safety and similar effects on erythropoiesis and lipids.

This review describes two cases of young women with primary amenorrhea and hyperandrogenemia, suggesting that adrenal tumors should be considered in patients with significantly elevated circulating testosterone levels.

This study found that acceptance of hair loss is associated with lower psychological distress in young men, highlighting its adaptive role compared to compensation and avoidance strategies.

This study concluded that visits to emergency and urgent care centers for severe sunburn treatment are largely avoidable and contribute to significant healthcare costs.

This review explores how androgens and growth hormone influence the development of terminal hairs and sebaceous glands, attributing variability in hirsutism and acne to differing genetic sensitivities to androgens, but reports no new experimental data.

This article reviews the management of excessive pre-ejaculate, highlighting case reports where 5-α-reductase inhibitors, such as finasteride and dutasteride, led to symptom resolution in patients reporting distress due to this condition.

This study found that while testosterone administration reduced myocardial damage in gonadectomized rats after ischemia/reperfusion injury, Finasteride led to greater improvements, whereas 4-hydroxyandrostenedione worsened outcomes.

This review examines male androgenetic alopecia and reports no new clinical results, offering insights to aid dermatologists in making informed therapeutic decisions.

This case report describes a girl with familial adenomatous polyposis who exhibited heterosexual precocious puberty due to an adrenal tumor secreting cortisol and androgens; after her adrenalectomy, her hormone levels normalized and symptoms improved, illustrating the link between genetic syndromes and endocrine disorders.

This review discusses the importance of androgen production and metabolism in hyperandrogenism, the use of specific serum markers for diagnosis, and the need for improved assays for clinical testing, but reports no new results.

This article discusses how androgen hormones affect the pilosebaceous unit through androgen receptors and reports no experimental or clinical findings.

This study reported that chronic use of performance-enhancing drugs significantly altered users' personalities and physical attributes, raising concerns about whether the perceived benefits outweigh the costs.

This study found that among transgender and gender diverse adults, facial hair is important for gender affirmation but often causes dissatisfaction and financial strain due to inadequate insurance coverage for hair care treatments.

This study highlights that lower testosterone in men and higher testosterone in women are linked to increased risks of metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes, with associated skin diseases indicating potential cardiovascular complications.

This case report presents a rare instance of an ovarian steroid cell tumor in a 68-year-old female with virilism, which normalized androgen levels following surgical removal.

This paper reviews current knowledge about androgens' role in androgenic alopecia and female hirsutism but presents no new clinical findings.

This case study describes a 31-year-old man with myotonia and a history of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and androgenic alopecia, who presented with arm and leg weakness.

In this study, acne severity in females was strongly associated with inflammatory lesion count and moderately associated with androgens, especially DELTA 4 and DHEAS promoting acne and SHBG reducing it.

This article discusses the complex pathogenesis of hirsutism and reports no new clinical results; further research is needed for better diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

This article summarizes findings on the role of androgens and estrogens in male reproductive tissues across species, highlighting the roles of hormone metabolism, receptor distribution, and stress-induced changes.

This abstract discusses the unclear role of dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in postembryonic life in marsupials and possibly humans, reporting no new findings.

This study found no significant association between androgenetic alopecia and psychosocial well-being among middle-aged men in the Northern Finland Birth Cohort.
