This study identified hypogonadism in 65% of men with Cushing syndrome, suggesting glucocorticoid excess may affect the hypothalamic-pituitary level or testosterone metabolism.

This paper discusses the use of lifestyle drugs by individuals without medical conditions to enhance appearance, highlighting that such usage may worsen emotional disorders and suggests these should be treated with psychotherapy or psychopharmacotherapy.

This review discusses recent strategies targeting the neuroactive steroid biosynthetic pathway to enhance neurosteroidogenesis, highlighting their potential benefits for neurodegenerative and neuropsychiatric diseases, but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study, women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed higher scores in character strengths like hope and judgement compared to those without PCOS.

Finasteride reduces certain behaviors caused by D1-like receptor agonists but not by D2-like receptor agonists in mice.

Testosterone's role in women's sex drive is unclear and needs more research, as low levels don't always mean less sexual interest and high levels can cause side effects.

This study found that neonatal finasteride treatment in male rats altered hippocampal GABAA receptor subunit expression and led to increased anxiety-like behavior in response to progesterone in adulthood.

Finasteride, a hair loss drug, can cause sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction in 2.1%-3.8% of users, but these usually go away with time or if the drug is stopped. Despite this, its impact on sexual function is minimal for most men.
