This case report emphasizes the importance of recognizing non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia as a cause of hyperandrogenism and the need for genetic counseling given potential familial implications.

This case report highlights Leydig cell hyperplasia as a rare cause of increased testosterone and postmenopausal hirsutism, resolved after bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in a 64-year-old woman.

This case report describes a 58-year-old woman whose virilization symptoms were linked to a steroid tumor of the ovary, emphasizing the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment to improve her quality of life.

This case report describes the first known instance of a patient with myotonic dystrophy presenting with type I diabetes, Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, and follicular variant papillary thyroid cancer, suggesting a potential link between these conditions.

In this case study, the use of somatostatin analogues was effective in localizing and confirming a neuroendocrine lung tumor as the source of ectopic ACTH syndrome, leading to marked clinical improvement in a patient unable to undergo surgery.

This case report describes a rare and atypical presentation of primary hypothyroidism with myxedema in a two-year-old boy, highlighting the importance of recognizing unusual symptoms for timely treatment.

This case study highlights the late diagnosis of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome in a 31-year-old woman, emphasizing the psychological impact and need for individualized treatment guidelines.

This study reported that testosterone levels over 150 ng/dL combined with lack of testosterone suppression during a low-dose dexamethasone suppression test may indicate androgen-producing tumors, though this wasn't consistent across all cases.

In this case report, significantly elevated testosterone levels were documented in a young female with Type A Insulin Resistance Syndrome, marking a clinical finding beyond what is typically associated with the disorder's known mutations.

This case report documents successful virilization, including penile length increase, in a boy with partial androgen insensitivity syndrome using high-dose testosterone combined with anastrozole.

In this case study, the researchers reported that treating a woman with type B insulin resistance using rituximab, dexamethasone, and cyclophosphamide greatly reduced her insulin needs, but her hyperandrogenic state persisted, suggesting ovarian hyperthecosis.

This case study reported that even with improved adrenal androgens and testosterone levels, treating women with AH-PCOS with glucocorticoids did not significantly improve ovulatory function or hirsutism.

This study found that omega-6 and saturated fatty acid-enriched diets promote weight gain and certain skin changes regardless of gut microbiota, while omega-3 diets limit adiposity and affect skin in a microbiota-dependent way in mice, highlighting a diet–microbiota–lipid relationship in skin health.

In this case report, microneedling combined with PRP improved hair density and thickness in a 40-year-old man with androgenic alopecia, without side effects, suggesting it as a therapeutic option for those avoiding long-term pharmacotherapy.

This case report examines a 10-year-old girl with Satoyoshi Syndrome, highlighting the challenges in diagnosing and managing this rare autoimmune disorder.

This study explores patients' perceptions of hair loss treatments, specifically oral minoxidil, topical minoxidil, and oral finasteride, building on existing clinical research.

This study found that using SH-SY5Y cell lysate in Western blot analysis may improve the diagnosis of Satoyoshi syndrome by providing more consistent and clear immunoreactive band patterns compared to brain homogenate, potentially leading to earlier diagnosis and treatment.

This article discusses a trial evaluating patient satisfaction with the TH07 treatment for androgenetic alopecia but reports no clinical results.

This observational study in Bogotá found that skin issues like acne and androgenetic alopecia are common among adults with gender dysphoria on hormone therapy, emphasizing the need for dermatological care as part of comprehensive treatment.

This case report describes a unique instance where elevated prolactin levels from a pituitary adenoma were associated with hirsutism due to increased dihydrotestosterone, with treatment leading to normalization.

This study reported a rare case where a pheochromocytoma produced ACTH, leading to cyclic Cushing syndrome, and underscores the importance of considering this possibility in cases of ACTH-dependent hypercortisolism with an adrenal mass.

In this case report, a 21-year-old woman with PCOS and obesity underwent bariatric surgery, leading to significant weight loss and improved hormonal balance, which alleviated her hyperandrogenism symptoms like hirsutism and irregular periods.

This case report describes a challenging diagnosis of Cushing’s syndrome using endocrine tests and imaging, which ultimately identified an adrenal etiology. Successful treatment involved a non-invasive desmopressin stimulation test and right adrenalectomy, leading to improvement in symptoms and health outcomes for the patient.

In this case study, the authors observed that weight loss coupled with a brief use of oral contraceptives was associated with normalized testosterone levels in a woman with severe hyperandrogenism and PCOS.

In this case report, a post-menopausal woman with symptoms such as hirsutism and elevated testosterone underwent surgery, which revealed hormonally active ovarian cellular fibromas, leading to symptom resolution and normalized hormone levels; the authors suggest further exploration of these tumors' hormonal effects.

This case report describes a rare instance of hyperandrogenism and increased hirsutism associated with endometrial cancer in a postmenopausal woman, with symptoms resolving and androgen levels normalizing after a total laparoscopic abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral oophorectomy.

In this case report, a 60-year-old man with dermatosis pustular subkorneal showed improvement following treatment with systemic and topical corticosteroids over 4–5 weeks, as diagnosed through clinical and histopathological assessments.

This study surveyed patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy and found that glucocorticoid treatment commonly leads to adverse effects, particularly sleep disturbance, mood swings, and weight gain, with more severe effects reported by female patients.

This case report details a child with a specific TNFAIP3 mutation manifesting as a severe SLE/SS phenotype, expanding the known phenotype for this genetic variant.

This review discusses the chemical composition and traditional medicinal uses of Eruca sativa, particularly its potential applications in topical preparations for hair growth and treating skin infections, but reports no new clinical results.
