The length of the CAG repeat in the androgen receptor gene affects the risk and progression of prostate cancer, BPH, infertility, and undermasculinized genitalia.

Testing for CAG repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene is not currently recommended for managing hypogonadism.

Longer CAG and GGN repeats increase alopecia risk, but no significant link to post-finasteride syndrome found.

Finasteride side effects in young men may be linked to specific gene variations.

Certain genes and X chromosome patterns may significantly contribute to the development of hair loss.

Finger length ratios are not linked to the number of specific gene repeats affecting testosterone sensitivity.

Certain gene variations are linked to better memory in healthy Chinese women.

Certain genetic variations in the AR and ERβ genes can affect androgen levels in women.

Longer CAG repeat lengths in the androgen receptor gene are linked to higher testosterone levels in women with PCOS.

Certain gene variations might be linked to severe acne in women but not in men.

AR polyglycine repeat doesn't cause baldness.

Longer GGN repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.

Understanding how androgens and their receptors work can lead to improved treatments for skin diseases.

Men with Kennedy disease have less chance of hair loss.

No significant link between CAG repeat numbers and female pattern hair loss in Han Chinese population.

Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.

Kennedy's disease leads to muscle weakness and sensory issues, has no cure but manageable symptoms, and future treatments look promising.

Effective treatments for spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy are not yet available; more research is needed.

Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.

Both genes and environmental factors like chemicals may contribute to the increase in hypospadias, but the exact causes are still unclear.

Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.

Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.

The document concludes that PCOS has a strong genetic component, but more research is needed to fully understand the specific genes involved.

Testosterone is crucial for development, growth, and various body functions in mammals.

Different drugs can treat high male hormone levels in women, but they have various effects and some may harm a fetus.

The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.

Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.

Testosterone's effects on COVID-19 are unclear and need more research.

The testes produce sperm and hormones essential for male development.

Oral contraceptives lower testosterone levels in women, especially those with certain genetic traits, and may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.
