research Recent Advances in Thiasteroids Chemistry
New sulfur-containing steroid analogs show promise for more targeted medical treatments.
research Local and Systemic Reduction by Topical Finasteride or Flutamide of Hamster Flank Organ Size and Enzyme Activity
Topical finasteride and flutamide reduce gland size and enzyme activity, with flutamide being more potent, potentially treating acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia.
research Decreased Fertility in Male Rats Administered the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, Finasteride, Due to Deficits in Copulatory Plug Formation
Finasteride reduces male rat fertility by causing issues with copulatory plug formation.
research Epigenetic Control of Skin and Hair Regeneration After Wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research Profile of the Progesterone Derivative Chlormadinone Acetate: Pharmacodynamic Properties and Therapeutic Applications
Chlormadinone acetate is a strong, well-tolerated hormone used in birth control and hormone therapy with benefits for menstrual pain and skin conditions.
research Allergic Contact Dermatitis from Minoxidil
