research Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Unsaturated Carboxysteroids as Human 5α-Reductase Inhibitors: A Legitimate Approach
New steroid compounds effectively inhibit 5α-reductase and may treat hair loss.
research Penis Endocrinology
Hormones, especially testosterone and DHT, are key for penis development and function, and testosterone therapy may help with erectile dysfunction in those with low levels.
research Androgens and Androgen Receptor Action in Skin and Hair Follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research An Observational Study of the Association Between Androgenetic Alopecia and Size of the Prostate
The conclusion is that more hair loss (androgenetic alopecia) is linked to larger prostate size, suggesting hair loss could be an early sign of benign prostatic hyperplasia.
research Finasteride Inhibits Melanogenesis Through Regulation of the Adenylate Cyclase in Melanocytes and Melanoma Cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
research Novel Progestogenic Androgens for Male Contraception: Design, Synthesis, and Activity of C7 Alpha-Substituted Testosterone
New testosterone analogs show promise for male contraception with better activity and potentially fewer side effects.
research Testosterone: The Male Sex Hormone
More research is needed to understand how testosterone is maintained in adult males.
research Consequences of Steroid-5α-Reductase Deficiency and Inhibition in Vertebrates
Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
research Finasteride in Androgenic Alopecia
Finasteride treats hair loss but may cause side effects like low libido and dizziness.
research Expression of an Olfactomedin-Related Gene in Rat Hair Follicular Papilla Cells
FP-1 is a key protein in rat hair growth, active only during the growth phase.
research Androgens and Erythropoiesis: Induction of Erythropoietin-Hypersecretory State and Effect of Finasteride on Erythropoietin Secretion
Androgens increase EPO production, finasteride doesn't significantly impact it.
research Finasteride
Finasteride effectively treats baldness but may cause sexual side effects.
research Endocrinology Overview: Male Reproductive Endocrinology and HPT Axis
The document explains how male reproductive hormones work and affect the body.
research Abstracts from the ASA 40th Annual Meeting
HNG may help prevent the negative effects of chemotherapy on sperm production and white blood cell counts.
research Persistent Sexual and Nonsexual Adverse Effects of Finasteride in Younger Men
Finasteride can cause sexual problems and depression in young men.
research Selections from Current Literature: Androgenetic Alopecia - The Science Behind a New Oral Treatment
New oral treatment, finasteride, effectively and safely treats common hair loss.
research The E211 G>A Androgen Receptor Polymorphism Is Associated With a Decreased Risk of Metastatic Prostate Cancer and Androgenetic Alopecia
E211 G>A gene linked to lower risk of severe prostate cancer and hair loss.
research Microalgae, Tetraselmis Tetrathele Has Alopecia Prevention and Scalp Improvement
Tetrathelmis tetrathele extract may help prevent hair loss and improve scalp health.
research Antiandrogens and Androgen Inhibitors in Dermatologic Treatments
Antiandrogens and androgen inhibitors like spironolactone, finasteride, and dutasteride can treat hair loss and skin conditions, but they have risks and side effects, including potential harm to pregnant women and risks of cancer and heart issues. Herbal remedies also have antiandrogenic effects but lack safety validation.
research Potential Role and Therapeutic Interests of Myo-Inositol in Metabolic Diseases
Myo-inositol supplements may improve insulin sensitivity and help with conditions like PCOS and gestational diabetes, but more research is needed.

research Inhibitory Activities of Some Traditional Chinese Herbs Against Testosterone 5α-Reductase and Effects of Cacumen Platycladi on Hair Regrowth in Testosterone-Treated Mice
Certain Chinese herbs, especially Cacumen platycladi, can promote hair regrowth and reduce hair loss-related hormone levels in mice.
research The Evolutionary Impact of Androgen Levels on Prostate Cancer in a Multi-Scale Mathematical Model
Low androgen levels might delay prostate cancer but could lead to more aggressive, therapy-resistant cancers.
research New Insights Into Testosterone Biosynthesis: Novel Observations From HSD17B3 Deficient Mice
Mice without the enzyme HSD17B3 still produce normal testosterone, suggesting they have different ways to make it compared to humans.
