This case report describes a patient who developed localized hypertrichosis of the pinnae after undergoing orchiectomy and chemotherapy for testicular carcinoma.

In this study, a novel DCAF17 gene mutation was identified in a Chinese family, suggesting a potential role in pancreatic β cell dysfunction and diabetes development in Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome.

This report describes an infant who was diagnosed with Rothmund-Thomson syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterized by diverse skin changes, short stature, and other developmental anomalies.

This article reviews the development of selective androgen receptor modulators and myostatin inhibitors as performance-enhancing drugs, highlighting ongoing challenges in achieving truly tissue-selective anabolic agents and reporting no new experimental findings.

This report describes a 38-year-old female diagnosed with autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome Type II after presenting with shock.

This report discusses the FDA's third denial of approval for Aveed, a long-acting testosterone injection by Endo Pharmaceuticals, citing continued safety concerns including severe side effects.

This letter discusses alopecia universalis and Kallman’s Syndrome, and offers no new clinical results.

In this study, patients with testicular feminization syndrome showed limited anabolic responsiveness to dihydrotestosterone, potentially due to reduced affinity of nuclear receptor sites for androgenic steroids rather than defective testosterone conversion.

This review identifies natural plants that possess androgen-related compounds, highlighting the potential of phytoandrogens as alternatives to allopathic treatments for conditions like hypogonadism, impotence, infertility, and erectile dysfunction.

This study observed that five out of fourteen individuals aged 13-16 years, who were homozygous for the p.C282Y mutation related to hemochromatosis, had increased liver and phlebotomy-mobilized iron levels.

This review discusses the roles of hormonal pathways in regulating male sexual function, particularly highlighting the impact of testosterone, and reports no new research findings.

This case report identifies a previously undocumented nonsense mutation in DCAF17 in a Chinese patient with Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, inherited from consanguineous parents.

This article offers HTML content and a downloadable PDF but does not provide an abstract or new findings for summary.

This review discusses the complex relationship between melasma and factors like female sex hormones, genetics, and ultraviolet light exposure, but reports no new clinical findings.

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

Finasteride may decrease semen quality but not harm sperm production, and stopping the drug can improve semen quality; hyperprolactinemia can cause infertility but is treatable with medication.

This review covers cell transplantation methods for genitourinary reconstruction, discussing tissue sources and complications but presenting no new clinical findings.

Androgens affect behavior, hair, bones, muscles, and the heart, and can be used to treat certain conditions.

This review outlines the major health consequences of anabolic-androgenic steroid abuse, with a focus on sexual and reproductive issues, and suggests management prioritizes cessation and relapse prevention due to lack of robust randomized trials.

This review explores current research on how dietary phytochemicals may help manage male androgen disorders by affecting hormone levels and endocrine function, highlighting their potential therapeutic roles and mechanisms in hormonal health, but does not report specific results.

This case report highlights that Sheehan syndrome, though rare in developed countries, can occur and underscores the importance of detailed history taking to uncover the cause of atypical presentations.

This review describes the genetic and phenotypic diversity of Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome, highlighting new DCAF17 gene variants and their varying clinical implications.

This study proposes that combining trazodone and clomiphene citrate could potentially restore libido synaptic circuits and treat post-finasteride syndrome, which involves persistent sexual dysfunction after discontinuing finasteride treatment.

This research indicates that androgens may drive hidradenitis suppurativa in some patients, as they show higher testosterone levels compared to nonaffected controls, and testosterone-lowering medications are established treatments for milder cases.

The document concludes that inflammation markers can be used in diabetes, vitamin D3 affects immune pathways, hyperthyroidism changes hormone levels, androgen levels help diagnose Adrenocortical Carcinoma, erectile dysfunction is linked to diabetes, hypogonadism is common in HIV-infected males, and hormones can be biomarkers for various conditions.

This book reviews current knowledge on testosterone, its functions, underlying mechanisms, and examines ethical and safety issues concerning its clinical and practical applications, without reporting new research findings.

In this case report, the researchers emphasize the importance of regular prostate exams and PSA tests for diabetic men, including those who are hypogonadal, because prostate cancer development is linked to intraprostatic dihydrotestosterone levels, not serum testosterone levels.

This report describes a boy with ectodermal dysplasias who was genetically diagnosed due to newly discovered TSPEAR gene variants, which have now been associated with this condition.

This study reports that testosterone requires conversion to DHT and estradiol for its various actions on external genitalia and bone, influencing lean mass, muscle size, strength, and body fat in hypogonadal males.

This study found that androgen deprivation therapy is associated with an increased risk of acquired long-QT syndrome and Torsades de Pointes, particularly highlighting enzalutamide's greater association with sudden death compared to other therapies.
