This study observed that adult female acne may be associated with hyperandrogenic features and polycystic ovary syndrome, though routine hormonal tests often do not show abnormalities other than PCOS.

This case study reported a 34-year-old woman presenting with secondary amenorrhea, hirsutism, and obesity showed elevated testosterone and anti-Müllerian hormone levels, leading to the exclusion of nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia as a diagnosis.

This review discusses ovarian hyperthecosis as a rare cause of androgenetic alopecia in postmenopausal women and reports no new results; the authors highlight the need to explore its relationship to alopecia further.

Evaluate and manage androgen excess in women with a systematic approach, considering both physical and psychological impacts.

This dissertation investigates how environmental exposures, such as air pollution and endocrine disruptors, impact women's reproductive and gynecological health throughout life, highlighting associations with earlier menarche, decreased ovarian reserve, and increased PCOS risk, and emphasizing healthcare system shortcomings in properly diagnosing these conditions.

This article discusses the factors contributing to menstrual-ovarian cycle disorders among adolescent girls in Bukhara and emphasizes the need for early preventive measures to enhance reproductive health.

This review highlights the role of sex hormones in skin health, observing that hormonal changes throughout a woman's life can affect skin conditions such as acne and hair loss, with treatments involving hormonal therapies and the importance of a multidisciplinary approach.

This collection of papers reviews recent research on women's skin, focusing on hormonal influences, environmental impacts, and specific skin disorders, with no new clinical results reported.

This research suggests that phytoestrogen-rich herbal extracts may help reduce hyperandrogenism, insulin resistance, and ovarian weight while promoting ovulation in polycystic ovarian syndrome, indicating potential for discovering new bioactive compounds.

This study found that gonadal dysfunction is very common in premenopausal women with acromegaly and may be caused by hyperprolactinemia, GH/IGF-I excess, or tumor effects.

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.
