This review discusses common psychodermatologic conditions and provides practical diagnostic and therapeutic recommendations but reports no new results; the authors emphasize the challenge of treating patients who lack insight into their psychiatric symptoms.

This hypothesis paper suggests that sexual and cognitive dysfunctions reported by some men after using finasteride and dutasteride may stem from vascular and tissue changes in penile tissue triggering broader inflammatory effects.

Finasteride may help improve certain brain function issues linked to dopamine.

This document, authored by Jack Schaffer, establishes prior art for methods aimed at treating disorders related to tissue function by restoring bioelectric communication among cells, preceding specific applications for conditions like androgenic alopecia and age-related sexual dysfunction.

This review discusses how neurosteroids acting on GABAA receptors may influence behavior and explores the potential for developing selective modulators for treating psychiatric disorders, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the classification and treatment of ejaculatory dysfunction, outlining both pharmacotherapy and behavioral therapy as primary interventions, but does not present new clinical findings.

This study suggests that ovarian cycle-related progesterone and neurosteroids regulate α2-subunit expression of GABA-A receptors in the hippocampus through a pathway independent of progesterone receptors, potentially affecting brain conditions linked to the menstrual cycle.

This review discusses the occurrence of persistent sexual, physical, neurological, and psychiatric side effects known as post-finasteride syndrome after 5x-reductase inhibitor treatment, and emphasizes the importance of evaluating these risks for patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia or androgenic alopecia.

In this study, dermatologists from the Spanish Hair and Nail Disorders Group viewed post-finasteride syndrome as rare and primarily of psychiatric origin, with limited scientific evidence supporting its existence.

This review discusses the clinical and molecular history of 5-alpha reductase deficiency, highlighting its role in male sexual differentiation and potential therapeutic applications, but reports no new research outcomes.

Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in this study had significantly higher anxiety and depression scores compared to controls, but showed no significant differences in temperament and character traits.

This review discusses the role of DHT in male sexual differentiation and fertility in individuals with 5α-reductase-2 deficiency, reporting no new clinical results.

This article reviews treatment processes and outcomes for transsexualism, reporting improved quality of life and reduced gender dysphoria post-gender reassignment, though increased psychiatric risks remain compared to the general population.

This article reports that the rise in erectile dysfunction among young men may be linked to mental health issues and societal pressures, with online communities often encouraging risky substance use like anabolic steroids and finasteride, which can exacerbate psychological and physical health problems.

This in-silico study found that Finasteride interferes with neurotransmitters and may increase psychopathology when it decomposes into a carboxylic acid similar to Cortisol.

This review discusses the local production and role of sex steroids in the hippocampal neurons of adult rodents and reports no new experimental findings.

This case report describes a boy with hypothalamic hamartoma experiencing pubertas precox and gelastic seizures, where leuprorelin therapy's effect on pubertas precox was controversial, but valproic acid effectively managed gelastic seizures.

This study found no baseline factors that predicted flibanserin efficacy for HSDD, though low testosterone or use of hormonal contraceptives were associated with reduced efficacy.

This review discusses the molecular mechanisms of masculinization involving androgen signaling and their roles in male embryonic development and conditions like hypospadias and prostate cancer, and reports no clinical results.

This study found that post-finasteride syndrome patients showed a tissue-specific methylation pattern of the SRD5A2 promoter in cerebrospinal fluid, potentially affecting neuroactive steroid levels and related behavioral symptoms.

This presentation argues that post-exposure syndromes like PSSD and Long COVID form a coherent group of conditions driven by complex interactions in high-dimensional state spaces rather than singular molecular pathways.

This review discusses finasteride's use in manipulating neuroactive steroid levels and its potential effects on behavior, reporting preclinical evidence and clinical observations but providing no new experimental results.

This study found that exposure to sex steroid biosynthesis inhibitors increases the expression of piRNA pathway genes in frog larvae, suggesting these genes play a role in gonadal sex differentiation.

This study observed that androgenic alopecia patients taking finasteride had altered neuroactive steroid levels and persistent depression symptoms even after stopping the treatment.

This review explores the hormonal factors linking polycystic ovary syndrome and psychiatric disorders, such as eating disorders, emphasizing a bidirectional relationship that necessitates a multidisciplinary treatment approach; it reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews how sex hormones and their analogues are used to treat diseases like autoimmune disorders and cancer, and discusses potential applications in infectious and parasitic diseases, without reporting new clinical results.

In this study, intrathecal progesterone administration initially worsened mechanical allodynia in mice after nerve injury, but later reduced pain when applied during the maintenance phase, highlighting distinct roles for cytochrome P450c17 and 5α-reductase in neuropathic pain modulation.

This review discusses the role of microglia in mediating prenatal androgen effects on the female brain, potentially contributing to PCOS development and neuroendocrine dysfunctions, but reports no new results.

In this study, body dysmorphic disorder symptoms in dermatological patients were strongly linked to psychiatric issues and reduced quality of life, particularly among those with unclassified dermatoses.

The researchers proposed that an epigenetic change in brain androgen receptors caused by finasteride could lead to post finasteride syndrome, while trazodone might reverse this effect by altering the epigenetic expression related to erection and libido.
