This review explores hirsutism in women with PCOS, analyzing its pathophysiology and management through both modern medicine and Unani perspectives, and suggests combining these approaches for more holistic care, while calling for future research to enhance treatment efficacy and safety.

Among postmenopausal women, this case study observed that a rare ovarian tumor called thecoma, found via MRI, was associated with high testosterone levels and symptoms of mild virilization such as hirsutism, indicating surgery as the primary treatment.

This study observed that transgenic mice with overexpression of HE4 developed keratitis and severe corneal opacity, suggesting that HE4 may significantly influence keratopathy and inflammatory responses in the eye.

This study highlights that the skin can serve as a marker for systemic health during COVID-19 by showing symptoms like rashes and pigmentary changes, while also emphasizing dermatologists' key role in diagnosing COVID-induced and vaccine-related skin issues to enhance patient care and address vaccine hesitancy.

This review found that while elevated DHEA levels are observed in some women with PCOS, especially those with hyperandrogenism, inconsistencies across studies suggest that standardized measurement and analyses are needed to clarify DHEA's role as a biomarker and factor in PCOS pathophysiology.

This study reported that the combination of EE-CPA and raloxifene effectively manages PCOS-related infertility, enhancing pregnancy outcomes through improvements in metabolism, sex hormones, ovarian function, and endometrial receptivity, without significantly increasing adverse effects.

This study describes a functional disorder in the ovary, known as stromal hyperplasia, characterized by the proliferation of ovarian stroma and luteinization of stromal cells, which is linked to excessive androgen production and elevated testosterone levels.

This study reports that fenugreek seed extract (Furocyst®) improved body weight, ovarian cysts, ovary size, hair growth, and menstrual regularity in women with PCOS, indicating its potential as an effective phytotherapeutic option for managing the condition.

This study, assessing PCOS patients, found a significant positive correlation between increased ovarian volume and elevated insulin resistance, suggesting that larger ovaries may indicate a higher degree of insulin resistance.

This case report describes a rare instance of a Leydig cell tumor in a 35-year-old pregnant woman, discovered incidentally during a cesarean section. The tumor typically presents with symptoms of excess androgen, though it can range from asymptomatic to rapid virilization.

This study found that using overexpanded tissue expanders effectively restored the hairy scalp in 25 patients with scalp alopecia, resulting in high satisfaction and minimal complications, emphasizing the importance of careful patient selection and follow-up.

In this case report, a 62-year-old woman with hyperandrogenism and polycythemia was diagnosed with a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor, highlighting the importance of considering such tumors in similar presentations; surgical removal led to symptom and lab normalization.

This case report describes a patient with an ovarian steroid cell tumor that initially presented as non-classical adrenal hyperplasia, emphasizing the difficulty in differential diagnosis with hyperandrogenism and the importance of close clinical monitoring.

This case report highlights the challenge of differentiating between non-classical adrenal hyperplasia and steroid cell tumors of the ovary in a patient presenting with hyperandrogenism.

In this case report, the authors describe the diagnosis and management of a rare case of hyperandrogenism in a postmenopausal woman, attributed to coexisting ovarian Leydig cell and Brenner tumors, with improvement in symptoms following bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy.
