Women with epilepsy should be monitored for reproductive issues, which can be caused by epilepsy or its treatments, especially when using valproate.

Wnt/β-catenin signaling is crucial for cell fusion in placental development.

This study determined that an mFG score of 5 or greater defines hirsutism among Southern Chinese women, with prevalence and score thresholds decreasing with age.

This study found that a genetic variant in the EDAR gene leads to typical East Asian hair characteristics by increasing signaling output, as shown in transgenic mice experiments.

This review discusses the etio-pathogenetic factors in benign prostatic hyperplasia and their role in the development of lower urinary tract symptoms but reports no new research findings.

This review explores the role of hormones in pilosebaceous units and associated skin disorders, focusing on androgen action, without presenting new clinical findings.

This study identified genomic regions and candidate genes that may contribute to phenotypic diversity in coat color, body size, cashmere traits, and high-altitude adaptation in domesticated goat breeds.

This study found that in captive mouflon rams, reproductive and physical maturation, marked by changes in hormone levels and physical attributes, progresses gradually across their life span, with sexual maturity tied closely to physical maturity.

This study found that topical minoxidil modestly extended the anagen phase in mice by activating β-catenin activity in dermal papilla cells.

In this study, researchers identified that upon tissue injury in a mouse model, epidermal cells at the wound edge convert to an embryonic-like state with SOX11 and SOX4 playing a central role in modulating epidermal development and cell migration genes.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria and treatment options for polycystic ovary syndrome focusing on metabolic subtypes and reports no clinical results.

This review examines the neuroendocrine mechanisms underlying seasonal changes in mammals and highlights areas needing further research, reporting no new experimental results.

Amenorrhea is relatively rare and initial testing should check FSH, TSH, and prolactin levels.

This study found that combining low-dose spironolactone with metformin provided greater clinical benefits and improved treatment compliance in women with PCOS compared to either drug alone.

This study found that both myo-inositol and metformin helped restore normal menstrual cycles in patients with PCOS, but myo-inositol appeared to be more effective in inducing pregnancy.

This study found that both finasteride and flutamide effectively reduce hirsutism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome or idiopathic hirsutism, but flutamide was more effective.

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.

This study found that the co-activator CBP enhances the agonistic action of hydroxyflutamide on androgen receptors, suggesting a mechanism for therapy resistance in prostate cancer.

In this study, transgender adolescents treated with testosterone for a median of 12 months experienced effective virilization, including voice deepening and increased hair growth, but also showed decreased HDL cholesterol and BMD z-scores, and increased hematocrit, with no short-term safety issues reported.

In this study, distinct metabolic profiles were identified in women with PCOS, suggesting potential biomarkers for diagnosis based on changes in lipid and androgen metabolism.

This review discusses the JAK-STAT pathway and the use of FDA-approved JAK inhibitors for autoimmune and inflammatory diseases but reports no new research findings.

In this study, women with idiopathic hirsutism who took finasteride for 9 months experienced a significant reduction in hirsutism scores compared to those receiving a placebo, with minimal side effects.

This study found that nonionic liposomes were the most effective vehicle for delivering reporter genes into the skin of rat pups, compared to other liposome and nonliposome formulations.

In this study, hirsutism in women with PCOS was strongly associated with hyperandrogenism and metabolic abnormalities, while acne and androgenic alopecia were not effective markers for hyperandrogenism.

This paper reviews causes of hirsutism in women and emphasizes the importance of identifying underlying conditions for risk assessment, though it reports no new clinical findings.

This review indicates that most studies reported positive effects of platelet-rich plasma injections for treating androgenic alopecia, with no major side effects, suggesting it may be a safe alternative to Minoxidil and Finasteride.

This review discusses the diagnostic criteria for polycystic ovary syndrome and reports no new results; the authors propose more robust criteria to address diagnostic variability and measurement uncertainty.

This study observed that androgen treatment increased ROS production and TGF-β1 secretion in rat hair follicle dermal papilla cells, suggesting that the androgen-induced TGF-β1 is mediated by ROS.

Finasteride reduces hair loss and treats BPH without major hormone changes, but may cause sexual dysfunction.

This study found that overexpression of the transcription factor Tcf3 accelerates keratinocyte migration and skin wound healing in mice, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for wound repair.
