Certain inhibitors can potentially treat prostate cancer and other hormone-dependent conditions by controlling sex hormone levels in cells.
research Is Prostate-Specific Antigen a Potential New Marker of Androgen Excess in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome?
Prostate-specific antigen may be a new marker for excess male hormones in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in the Prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.

research What Every Physician Should Know About Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Doctors should know how to diagnose and treat PCOS, which often involves checking for high male hormone levels and using medications to manage symptoms.
research Androgens and Cardiovascular Disease
Male hormones may play a role in the development of heart disease, and more research is needed to understand their effects.
research Retrospective Pharmacotherapeutic Evaluation of Dutasteride Not Approved by US FDA for Androgenetic Alopecia in Korea
Dutasteride is highly effective for hair loss treatment in Korea, with more side effects than finasteride.
research Testosterone Treatment in Women: An Overview
Testosterone treatment can improve sexual function and bone density in women but may have adverse effects and requires more research on safety and guidelines.
research Original Research—Endocrinology: Comparison of the Steady-State Pharmacokinetics, Metabolism, and Variability of a Transdermal Testosterone Patch Versus a Transdermal Testosterone Gel in Hypogonadal Men
The testosterone patch and gel are both effective, but they have different absorption patterns and effects on hormone levels.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Current Perspectives on the Physiological Activities of Fermented Soybean-Derived Cheonggukjang
Cheonggukjang may help prevent and manage various diseases and improve overall health, but its odor and safety concerns need addressing.
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 Finasteride 5mg and Sexual Side Effects: How Many Are Related to a Nocebo Phenomenon?
