This case report details a 26-year-old woman with a rare large functional adrenal myelolipoma, characterized by elevated hormone levels and requiring surgical intervention.

This study identified hypogonadism in 65% of men with Cushing syndrome, suggesting glucocorticoid excess may affect the hypothalamic-pituitary level or testosterone metabolism.

In this case report, an 11-year-old girl with hypothyroidism was found to have Hashimoto thyroiditis after presenting with hair loss, short stature, and pubertal disturbances; the study emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and personalized thyroid hormone therapy for better outcomes.

In this case report, a 10-year-old girl with an adrenal adenoma experienced symptoms like hirsutism and clitoromegaly; after surgical removal of the tumor, her symptoms and biochemical abnormalities resolved over several months.

In this case series, the authors reported that postmenopausal hyperandrogenism should be carefully evaluated to diagnose potential androgen-secreting tumors, with Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors identified as a common cause.

This case report describes an 80-year-old woman with severe androgenic alopecia linked to Leydig cell hyperplasia in an ovarian cyst, highlighting the need to investigate androgen-secreting tumors in similar cases.

In this study, Pomeranians with non-illness, generalized alopecia did not exhibit adrenal or pituitary abnormalities, suggesting a breed-specific hormonal pattern as a potential cause rather than a functional adrenal anomaly.

Panitumumab can cause excessive ear hair growth.

This report details the treatment of hyperparathyroidism in an 11-year-old girl through the removal of a parathyroid adenoma and reviews related pediatric cases; no new clinical outcomes are presented.

This paper presents a case study of a 21-year-old male with thyroid hemiagenesis, where the left thyroid lobe and isthmus are absent, and discusses the anomaly's potential clinical consequences based on existing literature.

This case report describes a functional adrenocortical oncocytoma that co-secreted testosterone and cortisol.

In this study, a combination of terbinafine and mitotane was used to treat a dog with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism and dermatophytosis, showing regrowth of hair and negative fungal cultures without detectable adverse effects.

This report describes an exceptionally rare adrenal neoplasm in a post-menopausal woman that exclusively secreted DHEA-S, with significant serum level reduction following adrenalectomy.

This case report highlights that hair loss, though common in the general population, may be a rare presenting symptom of Cushing's disease, as observed in a woman with multiple dermatological signs of the condition.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with androgenic alopecia and progressive hirsutism who, despite normal imaging, had significantly elevated testosterone due to a Leydig cell tumor, revealed after surgical exploration; the condition improved post-surgery, underscoring the importance of considering such tumors in similar presentations.

A woman's high testosterone levels were caused by a rare ovarian tumor, not the initially diagnosed condition.

This case study reports a possible link between gastroparesis and reduced absorption of thyroxine, leading to persistent hypothyroidism despite increased medication doses.

This case study details a 57-year-old woman with symptoms of androgen excess, including rapid hair growth and temporal balding, alongside abnormal testosterone levels and a history of chronic renal failure.

This study describes a postmenopausal woman's diagnosis with ovarian hyperthecosis, confirmed by a GnRHa test normalizing testosterone, highlighting hormone therapy as a therapeutic option when surgery is not feasible.

This case report highlights the need for early diagnosis and treatment of ovarian hyperthecosis to enhance the quality of life and health outcomes for affected patients.

This study found that intrathyroidal injection of autologous platelet-rich plasma improved thyroid function and symptoms in hypothyroidism patients, without adverse events over one year.

This case report details a diagnostic challenge in a postmenopausal woman with severe hyperandrogenism where distinguishing between adrenal and ovarian causes was complicated by elevated 17-OH Progesterone and asymmetric ovarian enlargement; pending surgical pathology is expected to guide further management.

This review discusses the causes and recommended clinical investigations for postmenopausal hyperandrogenism, highlighting the role of androgen excess in symptoms like hirsutism and its association with metabolic disorders.

This report documents the first known association of alopecia areata with idiopathic primary hypophysitis, suggesting a shared autoimmune basis.

This case report describes a boy with hypothalamic hamartoma experiencing pubertas precox and gelastic seizures, where leuprorelin therapy's effect on pubertas precox was controversial, but valproic acid effectively managed gelastic seizures.

This case report describes a 15-year-old girl with severe hyperandrogenaemia linked to both an ovarian androgen-secreting tumor and HAIR-AN syndrome, highlighting the complexity of diagnosing polycystic ovarian syndrome.

This case report presents a patient with idiopathic isolated ACTH deficiency and testicular germ cell tumor, with alopecia areata as an initial symptom, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

This case report describes a young woman with an adrenal oncocytic tumor of uncertain malignant potential, highlighting the need for ongoing surveillance due to possible malignancy.

This case study describes two postmenopausal women with severe androgen excess symptoms, diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis and stromal hyperplasia, emphasizing the challenges in differentiating these benign conditions from androgen-secreting tumors and the importance of surgical and histopathological evaluation for correct diagnosis and management.

The woman likely has a hormonal imbalance causing excessive hair growth.
