This review discusses normal menstrual variations and common menstrual disorders in adolescent girls, focusing on symptoms, evaluation, and management, but does not present new clinical results.

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

This study found that certain endocrine factors, influenced by smoking, birth order, and frequency of orgasms, may play an important role in the development of male breast cancer.

The document concludes that managing hirsutism involves identifying the cause, using a scoring system for severity, combining cosmetic and medical treatments, encouraging weight loss, and providing psychological support, while noting the need for more research on drug treatments.

This review discusses the use of antiandrogens for various conditions like prostate cancer and highlights their potential benefits in remission rates and symptom improvement, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the potential of 4-azasteroids as 5α-reductase inhibitors for treating hirsutism, reporting their promising effects in animal studies but noting no clinical trials have been conducted yet.

This study found that Ganoderma lucidum extracts reduced prostate enlargement and improved symptoms in testosterone-treated rats, suggesting potential benefits for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This review examines the gender-specific challenges in preventing and treating venous thromboembolism in women and highlights the need for further research on safe and optimal treatment strategies.

This study found that women with female pattern hair loss had increased 5α-reductase isozymes and decreased aromatase mRNA levels, potentially affecting their response to treatment.

This study found that during dialysis, lower plasma-potassium levels were associated with hyperglycemia, suggesting potassium correction is vital when using glucose-rich dialysate.

In this study, researchers observed that the sexual effects of dihydrotestosterone deprivation using finasteride may vary by handedness, with right-handed men often experiencing lower sexual function and left-handed men showing no effect or improvement.

This study found no significant association between selected gene variants and female pattern hair loss, suggesting these genes might not be involved in its development.

This case study describes a cat with concurrent cutaneous xanthomas, demodicosis, and dermatophytosis, which suggests potential primary hyperlipidaemia as the underlying cause for its symptoms.

This study found that high-dose cyproterone acetate was effective for treating hirsutism, but 33% of patients felt their condition worsened on low-dose maintenance therapy, despite no significant change in objective measures of hair growth.

This study suggests that DHT may have a less potent effect on the prostate compared to testosterone while maintaining safety and similar effects on erythropoiesis and lipids.

This study found that asebic mice exhibit abnormal sebaceous gland differentiation and insufficient sebum production due to defective regulation of cell processes, despite possessing normally developing sebaceous glands initially.

This study observed a potential association between the CC genotype of rs4646 and female pattern hair loss, but the authors advise caution due to lack of experiment-wide significance and recommend replication.

This study found that an alcoholic extract of Glycyrrhiza glabra significantly reduced prostate weight and serum testosterone in castrated rats given testosterone, indicating potential antiandrogenic properties.

This review discusses the causes and treatment strategies for hirsutism, emphasizing that combination therapy targeting androgen suppression and hair removal techniques is most effective; no new clinical results are reported.

This review reports that while anti-androgen therapy can improve hair loss in up to 50% of women with androgenetic alopecia, it typically only slows the rate of loss rather than promoting new growth.

This study found multiple factors, both inherited and acquired, that may lead to bradykinin-mediated angio-oedema, proposing a new classification based on bradykinin production and catabolism imbalance.

This article discusses the challenges in diagnosing and treating hidradenitis suppurativa, a recurrent skin disease, noting the lack of effective treatments and the need for more research, but it reports no new findings.

This article reviews hirsutism, its causes, cultural perceptions, and symptoms, but provides no new clinical findings beyond existing descriptions and statistics on hair growth patterns in women.

This study found that males with androgenetic alopecia had a significantly lower 2D:4D digit length ratio in the right hand compared to healthy controls, which may indicate prenatal androgen exposure.

This study found that normal ALT levels in women of reproductive age are linked with metabolic and androgenic abnormalities, suggesting ALT could be used beyond liver disease diagnoses.

Oxidative stress plays a role in female pattern baldness, causing an imbalance between harmful and protective elements in the body.

This article recommends assessing serum ferritin and vitamin D levels in patients with diffuse hair loss before starting treatment, but it reports no new clinical results.

This study found that topical fulvestrant did not significantly improve hair growth parameters in men and postmenopausal women with androgenetic alopecia, unlike minoxidil, which was more effective in men.

This article discusses primary cutaneous virilism, focusing on alopecia in women with androgen-dependent skin conditions, and reports no new findings.

This study found that glioblastoma cells express key enzymes involved in androgen synthesis, suggesting these enzymes might be potential targets for new therapeutic strategies.
