This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with hirsutism and androgenetic alopecia, where imaging ruled out malignancy and selective venous sampling indicated increased testosterone from the right adrenal vein, leading to a recommendation for right adrenalectomy and oophorectomy.

This study observed that among !Kung San males, adult androgen levels, particularly DHT, were negatively associated with indicators of fluctuating and directional asymmetry, suggesting a link to phenotype quality.

This article presents a collection of interdisciplinary studies by Brazilian researchers that address various societal issues to contribute to the nation's social and scientific development; it reports no new results.

This article discusses the unique considerations for cosmetic surgery on the Asian male face and reports no new research findings; it emphasizes different psychological approaches and surgical techniques.

This study found no general elevation in androgen levels among men predisposed to balding, despite a correlation with the free-to-total testosterone ratio; no link was observed with acne.

This review emphasizes aesthetic principles for achieving a masculine look in male periorbital rejuvenation, specifically focusing on the upper eyelid, lower eyelid, lateral canthus, and brow, but reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses the causes of hirsutism, identifying increased androgen production and heightened skin sensitivity, and provides no new clinical results.

This manuscript discusses a large-scale cross-sectional analysis on addressing variance in responses to a set of questions by identifying underlying factors, but specific results are not reported in the abstract.

This study found that inhibiting the 5alpha-reductase 2 pathway in male rats affects brain sexual differentiation and leads to reproductive changes, including increased pre-implantation loss despite unchanged copulatory potential.

This study found that testosterone therapy in trans men increased facial and body hair growth while the prevalence and severity of acne peaked at 6 months but were primarily mild after long-term treatment.

This review reports that hyperandrogenic conditions in women, which affect skin and overall well-being, lack dedicated treatment guidelines, presenting challenges in standardizing care.

This review discusses the potential of DHEAS and testosterone treatments to increase muscle mass in older men with sarcopenia, while effects on muscle function and physical performance remain unclear, and calls for further research on optimized approaches.

This review examines the causes and characteristics of androgen excess in postmenopausal women, but reports no new clinical results; the authors emphasize challenges in diagnosis and potential long-term health impacts.

This study identified five master regulators that mediate molecular differences in hair follicle development and sexual dimorphism in the skin, providing insights into male pattern baldness and hair follicle donor dominance.

This article reviews the use of cross-sex hormonal therapy in transmen and reports that it is reasonably safe, suggesting monitoring should be frequent initially but can be less frequent over time.

Hair loss can cause low self-esteem, anxiety, and depression in men.

This study found that men with early-onset androgenetic alopecia and certain risk factors may have worse gonadal steroidogenesis and an increased likelihood of developing gonadal dysfunction, suggesting a male equivalent of polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This study found that in healthy men, higher levels of free testosterone were associated with a stronger immune response to the influenza vaccine, suggesting androgens may function as immunomodulators rather than strict immunosuppressants.

This review discusses androgen and antiandrogen studies in COVID-19, noting potential impacts on disease severity and suggesting the need for more data on their effectiveness and safety.

This case study highlights the importance of considering broad causes when evaluating hot flashes in middle-aged men, as it detailed a pituitary macroadenoma causing secondary hypogonadism in a man presenting with such symptoms.

This research found that androgen bioactivity plays a role in normal female sexual differentiation, suggesting females develop within a significant androgenic environment, with implications for understanding conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study identified that androgens increase calcium sensitization in mouse colonic smooth muscle by activating the Rho/Rho kinase pathway, highlighting its role in modulating muscle contractility.

This review explores the emotional and psychoanalytic significance of male pattern hair loss through four perspectives but reports no new clinical findings.

Men can have genetic risks for PCOS-related traits like obesity and diabetes.

This article discusses the effectiveness of gender transition procedures in alleviating gender dysphoria and the need for better models to understand their mechanisms, but reports no new clinical results.

This report describes a rare case of a malignant feminizing adrenocortical tumor in a 44-year-old man who lacked the typical presentation of gynecomastia and died four months after diagnosis despite treatment.

This study found that male pattern baldness may serve as a clinical marker for circulating sex hormone levels in men with localized prostate cancer, while chest hair density showed no significant hormone association.

This study found a direct correlation between the testicular feminization gene and decreased androgen receptor activity, potentially explaining the androgen insensitivity in affected individuals.

This review discusses the complex causal relationships between testosterone exposure and various health outcomes, but notes that the studies reviewed show substantial heterogeneity.
