In this study, 56% of patients with hypothyroidism had dry, coarse skin, while weight gain and lethargy were also common complaints.

This study describes a 4-year-old spayed female ferret diagnosed with adrenocortical carcinoma, where surgical removal of the mass resulted in complete hair regrowth and improvement of clinical symptoms within four weeks.

This study found that injecting thymus gland extracts into albino rats significantly accelerated growth and morphological differentiation across generations, including earlier sexual maturation and development of features like hair and teeth.

Blocking the enzyme 11β-HSD1 might help treat obesity and metabolic issues.

In this case report, a 48-year-old woman's hyperandrogenism, presenting with symptoms like acne and hirsutism, was attributed to a benign Leydig cell tumor, which resolved after surgical removal.

In this study of a postmenopausal woman with hyperandrogenism, GnRH agonist treatment significantly reduced testosterone levels, suggesting the androgen excess was ovarian in origin and indicating the potential of using GnRH agonists as a conservative treatment option when surgery is not feasible.

People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.

This paper reviews the treatment options for hirsutism and emphasizes the importance of diagnosing its underlying cause and considering patient perception and specific phenotypes, reporting no new clinical results.

This study found that administering growth hormone to adult men with GH deficiency increased their sexual hair scores, suggesting an auxiliary effect on androgen action in the skin.

This study found that obese patients experienced similar weight loss on a very low-calorie diet and total fast, but the diet was associated with fewer complications.

This case study highlights the complexity of managing autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 1, emphasizing the need for thorough clinical history, high suspicion for early diagnosis, and continuous long-term follow-up.

This case report described a 62-year-old postmenopausal woman with hirsutism whose symptoms improved after a hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy, revealing bilateral ovarian hyperthecosis.

This study observed that an overdose of levothyroxine in a hypothyroid infant led to rapid hair loss, which improved after reducing the medication dose.

This study examined a case of postmenopausal virilization in a woman and found that despite normal imaging, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy revealed rare ovarian Leydig cell and Brenner tumors as the source of hyperandrogenism, with symptoms resolving post-surgery.

In this case report, the authors describe the first documented occurrence of new-onset hypocortisolism after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy in a patient, highlighting the need for awareness of this condition among clinicians when patients present with nonspecific symptoms post-bariatric surgery.

This study reported that horses with pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction had improved coat condition, advanced shedding, and better quality of life when treated with blue light masks.

In this case study, an 18-year-old woman with stress-related hair loss saw no improvement with allopathic medicine but was prescribed Calcarea carbonicum for constitutional support and Phosphoric acidum for stress, based on a homeopathic approach considering her symptoms.

In this study, a plasma-fluorescent corticoid test effectively differentiated patients with adrenal insufficiency from those with normal adrenal function based on their response to corticotropin.

This abstract is a navigation and policy notice for a website and does not contain any research findings.

This study found that the hairless mutant gene in C 57BL/6 mice affects the hair follicle cycle and leads to early thymus degeneration and distinct skin changes.

A woman with a specific mutation causing adrenal gland issues faced fertility problems, but careful hormone therapy helped her manage it successfully.

This study found that the collagen-binding fusion protein PTH-CBD significantly improved hair regrowth and follicle health in mice after chemotherapy, suggesting potential as a therapy for chemotherapy-induced alopecia.

This case study identified a probable pure testosterone-secreting ovarian tumor in a woman with increased facial hair and elevated testosterone levels, confirmed by histological examination as Leydig cells hyperplasia, which normalized testosterone and symptoms post-surgery.

This study found that 27% of women with polycystic ovary syndrome reported perceived scalp hair thinning, which was associated with factors like advancing age, subjective hirsutism, disturbed sleep, smoking, abnormal glucose tolerance, and meal skipping.

This study found that chemical sympathectomy inhibited hair follicle growth in mice, suggesting that sympathetic nerves may regulate keratinocyte behavior to promote hair growth.

In this case report, a rare instance of ACTH-independent hypercortisolism in a patient with long-standing Addison's disease led to the discovery of an adrenal cortical adenoma, successfully treated with adrenalectomy, underscoring the importance of considering functional adrenal tumors in such atypical biochemical scenarios.

This article discusses sexual interests and behavior in individuals with Prader-Willi syndrome and notes the lack of prior descriptions in this area, but reports no new clinical results.
