This study found that six months of combined estrogen-progestin pill therapy led to a significant reduction in serum AMH levels and improvement in hyperandrogenic symptoms among women with PCOS.

This review discusses potential benefits of adding bioidentical progesterone to gender-affirming treatment for trans women and reports no new clinical results; it calls for further research to confirm efficacy and safety.

This study suggests that measuring scalp hair 17-hydroxyprogesterone and androstenedione concentrations can be a promising tool for monitoring treatment in children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

This study found that 17β-oestradiol reduces lipogenesis but not cell division in human sebaceous glands over 7 days, while testosterone and dihydrotestosterone showed no effect on these processes.

This study reported that ketoconazole may effectively normalize menstruation and reduce testosterone and hair growth in women with ovarian hyperandrogenism, though its safety needs further evaluation.

Equol may help with antiaging and skin health by boosting collagen and blocking certain hormones.

This study developed and validated a comprehensive method using mass spectrometry to profile sex (pro)hormones in plasma, with results showing reliable calibration and detection of 31 analytes in samples from pre- and postmenopausal women and men, while addressing potential over- or underestimations in analyte concentrations.

This study suggests that stress may worsen Tourette syndrome symptoms in mice by increasing allopregnanolone synthesis, with findings supporting finasteride as a potential treatment to manage symptom fluctuations.

This study found that androgenic steroids, particularly androstenedione and androstanedione, significantly reduced the growth of certain dermatophytes, suggesting hormonal influence on fungal infections in hair follicles.

This historical review traces the discovery of 5-alpha reductase inhibitors, widely used in urology, from the study of guevedoces, Dominican children with a rare disorder leading to significant androgenization at puberty.

This study found that suppressing allopregnanolone production in late gestation fetal sheep altered CNS activity and behavioral responses to transient asphyxia, effects mitigated by an analog co-infusion.

Cortexolone 17a-propionate may be an effective new treatment for hair loss.

This study suggests that the elevated stress hormone response in adolescent male rats may involve increased conversion of testosterone to estradiol at the adrenal cortex level.

This study found that 17β-estradiol was the most powerful hormone for inducing APE1/Ref-1 secretion in cultured vascular endothelial cells, with secretion occurring through exosomes dependent on estrogen receptors and intracellular calcium.

The project aims to validate a nutritional intervention targeting the Redox–NO–Androgen Axis to restore mitochondrial, endothelial, and hormonal balance in male health disorders related to oxidative stress.

This review describes the dermatological uses of the contraceptive ethinylestradiol/chlormadinone acetate for conditions linked to high androgen levels and reports no new clinical results.

This review examines male androgenetic alopecia and reports no new clinical results, offering insights to aid dermatologists in making informed therapeutic decisions.

This study found that progesterone's antiseizure effects in mice occurred primarily through conversion to allopregnanolone, rather than through the progesterone receptor, as evidenced by results in PR knockout mice.

This study suggested that moxibustion treatment before or at the early stage of diminished ovarian reserve in rats may improve ovarian function by modulating androgen balance, though its effects differ across intervention timings.

This review discusses the role of androgens in menopausal women's health, highlighting symptoms of both hyperandrogenemia and androgen deficiency, but reports no clinical results.

This review discusses the significant role androgens may play in COVID-19 severity and mortality, but it reports no new results; further research in diverse populations is needed.

This study suggests that inhibiting testosterone via the 5α-reductase pathway might help alleviate sleep-related breathing instability in certain central sleep apnea populations.

This study found that serum DHEA levels increase earlier and are higher in girls compared to boys through various stages of puberty, reflecting their earlier pubertal development.

This case study observed that in four middle-aged men with ejaculation disorders, therapy with human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) alone or combined with recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (rFSH) improved sexual desire, semen volume, and various other symptoms, although some experienced elevated estradiol levels and hair loss.

This invention reports piperazine derivatives as potent inhibitors of type 3 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, suggesting potential therapeutic applications in treating prostate cancer, acne, and androgenic alopecia.

This review discusses the clinical and molecular history of 5-alpha reductase deficiency, highlighting its role in male sexual differentiation and potential therapeutic applications, but reports no new research outcomes.

This study found that topical application of hair lotion containing 17α-estradiol may reduce androgenetic hair loss, as 63% of treated patients showed a decrease in telogen hairs compared to 37% in the control group.
