This study observed that "physiological" hyperandrogenism due to elevated total testosterone was associated with a 23.5% incidence of arterial hypertension, unlike hyperandrogenism due to elevated DHT levels.

This article discusses diagnostic evaluations and management strategies for isosexual precocious puberty, emphasizing the importance of accurate identification and appropriate treatment, but it provides no new clinical findings.

This case study reports that hormonal imbalances in a young boy with precocious pseudopuberty returned to normal after the removal of a testicular interstitial cell tumor, with normal spontaneous puberty following.

This study found that Sonic Hedgehog protein treatment enhanced the sprouting and regeneration of pelvic ganglia and cavernous nerves after injury, with localization of delivery affecting outcomes.

This review concludes that preoperative hormonal stimulation with testosterone or DHT may help increase penile length and glans circumference, easing hypospadias surgery and potentially reducing postoperative complications.

This case report describes a 14-year-old girl with signs of virilization, including increased facial and body hair, deepened voice, and elevated serum testosterone and androstenedione levels.

This article reviews puberty's onset, development, and the factors affecting it, including nutrition, obesity, and gender dysphoria, and reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews various aspects of puberty, particularly focusing on the staging of sexual maturity and the factors influencing pubertal onset, but reports no new empirical results.

This study observed a temporal association between tamsulosin use for benign prostatic hyperplasia and an increased risk of severe hypotension requiring hospital admission during the first eight weeks of treatment initiation and restart.

This case report describes a man diagnosed with Hoffman syndrome, characterized by muscle hypertrophy and weakness due to severe hypothyroidism, who had an excellent response to thyroid hormone replacement.

This case series reports three cats diagnosed with hypersomatotropism due to GH-secreting pituitary adenomas without concurrent diabetes mellitus, highlighting the potential for underdiagnosis in non-diabetic cats.

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

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 4-year-old boy with autism and a rare condition causing precocious puberty, where treatment for hyperandrogenism unexpectedly intensified his aggressive behavior.

This case describes a 14-year-old girl whose symptoms of hirsutism and virilization were attributed to an ovarian Sertoli-Leydig tumor, with improvement following surgical removal.

This case study reports that in an 8-year-old male, a pituitary adenoma causing isolated high LH secretion led to early testosterone-driven puberty without typical testicular enlargement, highlighting the differential roles of LH and FSH in pubertal development.

This article discusses hyperandrogenism, including its symptoms, causes, and diagnostic approaches, and reports no new clinical results; it emphasizes the role of interdisciplinary care in treatment.

Hirsutism is abnormal male-pattern hair growth in females due to excess androgens.

This case report details a 13-year-old boy with Cushing syndrome, where BIPSS identified the pituitary gland as the cortisol excess source and hormonal tests showed suppressed puberty markers.

This case report describes a 23-year-old woman with a history of ambiguous genitalia and complex medical conditions, including a pelvic mass and hirsutism, observed from childhood to adulthood.

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.

In this case report, successful management of a pituitary macroadenoma was achieved with thyroid hormone therapy, leading to reduced tumor size and improvement in symptoms like galactorrhea and headaches.

This study found that in men, elevated androgen levels can occur at any age, with older men potentially exhibiting increased total testosterone due to higher levels of SHBG, and younger men showing various clinical manifestations like acne and alopecia.

This review discusses the role of norepinephrine release and protein kinase C activation in the development of benign prostatic hypertrophy, suggesting potential targets for new therapies, but it reports no new clinical results.

In this study of male patients with 46,XY 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency, DHT therapy was effective in achieving penile enlargement during infancy, while testosterone replacement therapy proved more beneficial during puberty, possibly due to increased conversion to DHT.

This case report describes a unique instance where elevated prolactin levels from a pituitary adenoma were associated with hirsutism due to increased dihydrotestosterone, with treatment leading to normalization.

This study presents two adolescent cases of ovarian hyperthecosis, a rare cause of severe hyperandrogenism, highlighting management strategies involving gonadotropin suppression and hormone replacement after excluding androgen-producing adrenal and ovarian tumors.

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.
