New genes and pathways are important for testosterone production and male sexual development.

People with chronic Alopecia Areata often have lower vitamin D levels.

The method can measure multiple steroids in human hair to study long-term steroid metabolism, especially in newborns and children.

Vitamin D receptor is important for regulating hair growth and wound healing in mice.

Stress activates a special function of the Vitamin D receptor with the help of c-Jun, which can also prevent cell death.

Siblings with signs of virilization should be tested for non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia, which does not affect adult height but may impact fertility and well-being if untreated.

A woman with a rare adrenal tumor and hormonal disorder had improved testosterone levels after surgery, but her menstrual irregularities continued.

Women with non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia have higher levels of certain steroids, which can be reduced by treatment.

Ashwagandha may improve hormone levels and reduce hair loss in non-classical adrenal hyperplasia.

Over a third of women thought to have non-classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia didn't have it confirmed by genetic tests.

Early detection of ovarian steroid cell tumors is crucial to prevent lasting symptoms.

Ovarian steroid cell tumors can mimic adrenal hyperplasia, and surgery can normalize hormone levels.

A woman with a specific mutation causing adrenal gland issues faced fertility problems, but careful hormone therapy helped her manage it successfully.

The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.

A woman's hair loss and other symptoms were due to a rare hormone deficiency treatable with steroids.
