In this study, irregular menstruation was observed as the most common clinical manifestation of polycystic ovarian disorder in the subjects, followed by dermatologic symptoms like hirsutism and acne.

This review discusses how androgens, commonly known for male reproductive roles, also influence the physiology and pathology of the human endometrium, though their exact roles in this tissue remain controversial and not fully understood.

This review discusses the epidemiology, causes, diagnosis, and management of hirsutism in women, noting that effective treatment requires addressing the root cause as well as the hair growth.

This case report and literature review describes a 27-year-old woman with a Sertoli Leydig cell tumor causing testosterone-related symptoms and highlights normalization of hormone levels after surgical treatment.

This review discusses the roles estrogens play in males and androgens in females, challenging the traditional view of strictly "male" and "female" hormones, but it does not report new experimental findings.

In this cross-sectional study at a tertiary care hospital, researchers found a significant correlation between cutaneous manifestations like hirsutism and acne and biochemical hyperandrogenism levels in women with PCOS, suggesting these skin conditions can predict elevated androgen levels.

This study found that acupressure on specific points improved health-related quality of life and reduced total testosterone levels and clinical symptoms in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to controls.

This study suggests that the anogenital distance measure AGD_AC may moderately discriminate the presence of polycystic ovarian syndrome and could be a useful clinical tool.

This study found that a self-assessed modified Ferriman-Gallwey score of 10 or higher indicates excess body hair, and suggests androstenedione measurement should accompany testosterone when evaluating hyperandrogenism.

This study demonstrated that treating platelet-rich plasma with ozone or procaine in vitro led to distinct changes in platelet activity, significantly enhancing the release of platelet-derived factors without damaging the platelets, indicating potential for improved regenerative therapies.

This case report involved a premenopausal woman with rapidly progressing virilizing symptoms caused by a rare sertoliform endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary. Following surgical intervention, her symptoms improved, highlighting the importance of recognizing virilizing symptoms as potential indicators of low-grade ovarian malignancies in similar cases.

This article reviews the negative effects of androgenic disorders and highlights that newer oral contraceptives with less androgenic progestins may reduce these effects and improve compliance, but it reports no new results.

In this study, researchers found that female rats exhibited more pronounced panic-related escape behavior during hypoxia, particularly in the diestrus phase, and that low-dose fluoxetine reduced this behavior, suggesting its potential for managing panic disorder symptoms related to hormonal cycles in women.

This study concluded that including ovarian morphology in the diagnosis significantly increases the estimated prevalence of PCOS, revealing substantial variability due to clinical criteria and diagnostic cut-offs.

This review highlights essential preoperative assessments for ophthalmologists and non-oculo-facial surgeons performing upper facial rejuvenation, emphasizing the importance of understanding ocular and periocular anatomy to achieve both cosmetic and functional improvements.

This study found that women with both PCOS and gingivitis had significantly higher levels of AMH in their saliva compared to those with only PCOS, gingivitis, or neither condition.

In this case study, researchers identified a Leydig cell tumor in a 56-year-old postmenopausal woman with virilization symptoms by using ovarian vein sampling, as imaging was nonrevealing, and confirmed the tumor's location using testosterone ratios, which supported previous findings.

This review examines the prevalence and symptoms of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) across different ages, highlighting its varied dermatological and reproductive implications, but reports no new research findings.

This case report describes a rare instance of Satoyoshi syndrome in a 27-year-old Asian American woman, notable for her normal ovarian function despite typical syndrome features.

This article discusses the prevalence and impact of polycystic ovary syndrome on reproductive-aged women and reports no new clinical findings.

This reply argues that children with isolated extraordinary daytime frequency do not require extensive testing or aggressive pharmacologic treatments, noting potential negative effects of oxybutynin.

This review examines the causes, assessment, and treatments of hirsutism and highlights the need for future research in managing this condition but presents no new research findings.

This review discusses the causes, evaluation, and treatment options for hirsutism in women, but reports no new clinical results.

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 chapter reviews the potential role of gonadal hormones in sex differences in play and spatial behavior, noting a lack of conclusive evidence but suggesting perinatal androgen exposure might contribute to observed differences. It reports no new research results.

This review highlights the multiple physical and psychological impacts of polycystic ovary syndrome in reproductive-aged women and underscores the importance of early medical evaluation and lifestyle changes for effective treatment.

This study reported that 31.6% of female students experienced hirsutism, which was associated with menstrual abnormalities, acne, androgenic alopecia, hypertrichosis, and a familial history of hirsutism.

This study observed that "physiological" hyperandrogenism due to elevated total testosterone was associated with a 23.5% incidence of arterial hypertension, unlike hyperandrogenism due to elevated DHT levels.

This study found that platelet-rich plasma treatment significantly improved erectile function and restored neural structures in aged rats with erectile dysfunction, suggesting potential benefits for geriatric patients.

This study developed a detailed classification system for functional androgenization in females that may enhance diagnosis and personalized treatment by identifying individual dysfunctions.
