Exposure to certain sex hormones can increase health risks, while some hormone therapies may offer benefits for specific conditions.

Many children and teens referred to gender services receive hormone treatments, but more research is needed on their long-term care and outcomes.

Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.

The research found that polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) has two distinct types, with one having more severe hormone and insulin issues.

Testosterone is key for male sexual function, and treating hormone imbalances can improve sexual issues.

Measuring reproductive hormones in brown bear hair could help identify their sex and reproductive state, but better collection methods or lab techniques are needed.

Substances from fat-derived stem cells can promote hair growth and counteract hormone-related hair loss by activating a key hair growth pathway.

Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.

Sex hormones may be linked to inflammation in Hidradenitis Suppurativa.

Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.

Stress may contribute to hair loss in alopecia areata by affecting immune responses and cell death in hair follicles.

Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb. may help treat hair loss by affecting specific biological pathways.

The document concludes that inflammation markers can be used in diabetes, vitamin D3 affects immune pathways, hyperthyroidism changes hormone levels, androgen levels help diagnose Adrenocortical Carcinoma, erectile dysfunction is linked to diabetes, hypogonadism is common in HIV-infected males, and hormones can be biomarkers for various conditions.

Gender affects hair and scalp characteristics, with differences in hormone responses, graying patterns, and trace metals.

Understanding genes and hormones is crucial for managing male puberty and sex development disorders.

Menopause often leads to lower sexual desire and discomfort during sex, but treatment should be personalized and only if it bothers the woman.

Some hormone-related drugs may protect brain cells in Parkinson's disease differently in men and women.

Women with scarring alopecia are less likely to have used hormone replacement therapy or oral contraceptives compared to those with female pattern hair loss.

Men and women get COVID-19 at similar rates, but men tend to get sicker and have a higher risk of dying, while women usually have stronger immune responses and vaccine reactions.

Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.

Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).

New treatments for prostate cancer and BPH show promise, including novel compounds that target hormone synthesis and response.

Bisphenol-A (BPA) increases connections between brain cells and boosts their activity, but it blocks the effects of a male hormone on brain cell plasticity.

The skin's ability to produce hormones is linked to various skin conditions, and better understanding this process could lead to new treatments.

Hormones significantly influence hair growth, with conditions like hirsutism and patterned hair loss linked to hormone levels; more research is needed for full understanding.

Hormones and signaling pathways control sebaceous gland function and could help treat acne.

Leptin, a hormone from fat cells, affects immune responses and can influence skin diseases and hair growth.

Bolandiol, a synthetic steroid, builds muscle and bone without greatly affecting sex glands, and works differently from other hormones.

Skin health and diseases are closely linked to metabolic processes.

Lichen Planopilaris and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia may help us understand hair follicle stem cell disorders and suggest new treatments.
