research Chronic Treatment with Finasteride Daily Does Not Affect Spermatogenesis or Semen Production in Young Men
Finasteride doesn't harm male fertility or sperm quality, but may slightly reduce ejaculate volume.
research Post-Finasteride Syndrome – Does It Really Exist?
Post-finasteride syndrome's existence is uncertain; more research needed.
research Hirsutism
Hirsutism is excessive male-pattern hair growth in women, often caused by hormonal imbalances, and requires ongoing treatment to manage.
research Androgen Biosynthetic Pathways in the Human Prostate
DHT in the human prostate is produced through multiple pathways, not just from testosterone.
research Hormonal and Genetic Etiology of Male Androgenetic Alopecia
research Therapeutic Hotline: Finasteride, 1 Mg Daily Administration on Male Androgenetic Alopecia in Different Age Groups: 10-Year Follow-Up
Finasteride is a safe and effective long-term treatment for male hair loss, especially when started early.
research The Impact of the 5α-Reductase Inhibitors on Male Sexual Function and Psychological Well-Being
5α-reductase inhibitors can cause serious and possibly lasting sexual and psychological side effects.
research Combined Treatment with Oral Finasteride and Topical Minoxidil in Male Androgenetic Alopecia: A Randomized and Comparative Study in Chinese Patients
Finasteride and minoxidil together work best for male hair loss.
research 5-Alpha Reductase Deficiency
5-alpha reductase deficiency leads to male sexual development issues and treatments like finasteride help with prostate enlargement and hair loss.
research Leydig Cell Hyperplasia and Adenomas in Mice Treated with Finasteride, a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor: A Possible Mechanism
Finasteride causes abnormal growth in male mice cells at high doses.
research Structure of Human Type II 5 Alpha-Reductase Gene
The human type II 5α-reductase gene has a specific structure important for understanding certain medical conditions.
research Preparation of 3H-Labelled Testosterone Metabolites
The conclusion is that tritium-labeled testosterone metabolites can be made and are better converted into dihydrotestosterone in skin cells than in prostate tissue.
research Pharmacology of Anti-Androgens in the Skin
Anti-androgens can help reduce the effects of male hormones on the skin.
research Steroidogenesis of the Testis: New Genes and Pathways
New genes and pathways are important for testosterone production and male sexual development.
research Role of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors in Benign Prostatic Diseases
5α-reductase inhibitors help shrink the prostate, improve urinary symptoms, and may reduce prostate cancer risk.
research A Randomized, Double-Blind Controlled Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Topical Solution of 0.25% Finasteride Admixed with 3% Minoxidil vs. 3% Minoxidil Solution in the Treatment of Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride and minoxidil mix works better for hair growth than minoxidil alone, with similar safety.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome Associated with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (Testicular Feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Establishment of Type II 5α-Reductase Over-Expressing Cell Line as an Inhibitor Screening Model
A reliable model for screening type II 5α-reductase inhibitors was created and validated.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.
research Regulation of Androgen Receptor and 5α-Reductase in the Skin of Normal and Hirsute Women
The exact cause of increased 5α-reductase activity leading to hirsutism in women is still unknown.
research Inhibitors of 5α-Reductase in the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
5α-reductase inhibitors and alpha-1 adrenergic antagonists together effectively treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, with long-term benefits.
research 5α-Reductases in Human Physiology: An Unfolding Story
We need to learn more about 5α-reductases and neuroactive steroids to safely make drugs targeting these enzymes.
research 5-Alpha-Reductase Deficiency in a Saudi Girl
A Saudi individual initially identified as a girl had a genetic disorder affecting gender development.
research Comparison of Finasteride (Proscar) and Serenoa Repens (Permixon) in the Inhibition of 5-Alpha Reductase in Healthy Male Volunteers
Finasteride works better than Permixon in reducing dihydrotestosterone levels.
research Testicular Steroidogenesis: Production and Regulation of Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research Evaluation of Long-Term Efficacy of Finasteride in Korean Men with Androgenetic Alopecia Using the Basic and Specific Classification System
Finasteride effectively treats hair loss in Korean men for at least 5 years, with V type responding better.
research Visually Scoring Hirsutism
The modified Ferriman-Gallwey method is a useful tool for diagnosing hirsutism.
research The Effects of Finasteride on Hair Growth, Hair Cycle Stage, and Serum Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone in Adult Male and Female Stumptail Macaques
Finasteride increases hair growth, prolongs hair cycle, and lowers dihydrotestosterone levels.
research Ornithine Decarboxylase Is Upregulated by the Androgen Receptor in Skeletal Muscle and Regulates Myoblast Proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
