This review discusses the genetics and variable phenotypic expression of nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new clinical results; the authors call for further research on long-term health impacts and treatment strategies.

In this study, higher expression levels of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein were correlated with increased estrogen synthesis and fewer hair follicles in human skin, suggesting a link to elastic fiber formation and hair growth.

This review examines hair and skin disorders in post-menopausal women and notes a lack of evidence supporting specific treatments for this population.

This article reviews the characteristics, diagnosis, and management of premature adrenarche and suggests it may predict future ovarian hyperandrogenism in some adolescents; no new clinical results are reported.

This article discusses hair loss in postmenopausal women as often being multifactorial, reviewing various conditions affecting this group, but reports no new research findings.

This review discusses factors affecting fertility in both men and women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia and emphasizes individualized preconception management but reports no new clinical results.

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 review discusses the similarities in clinical, endocrine, and ultrasonographic features between PCOS and other disorders with excessive androgen secretion, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnosis but reports no new clinical results.

A postmenopausal woman's masculine symptoms improved after surgery for a hormone-producing ovarian tumor.

This review discusses various causes of hair loss, emphasizing the importance of a structured diagnostic approach, and reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the cosmetic and health implications of hirsutism and highlights its potential link to serious underlying disorders, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This study synthesizes current evidence showing that menopause involves a predictable endocrine transition, while male ageing features a more variable testosterone decline, necessitating a nuanced clinical approach to diagnosis and treatment.

This report presents a case of a child with hypothyroidism and poorly controlled type 1 diabetes developing both Mauriac syndrome and Van Wyk–Grumbach syndrome, two rare complications.

Sex hormones affect reproduction, sexual development, and oral health, and it's important for dental practitioners to understand their effects and interactions.

This review discusses hormones that affect acne and highlights a statistically significant link between a low-glycemic-load diet and reduced acne activity, but reports no new experimental findings.
