This study reviewed and categorized dermatological drugs for pregnancy and lactation according to new FDA labeling guidelines, which replaced simplistic letter categories with detailed information, aiming to improve prescribing decisions by addressing both maternal and paternal reproductive potential.

This review highlights that nanotechnology enhances the solubility, stability, and bioavailability of phytochemicals from medicinal plants, improving their therapeutic efficiency in disease models like cancer and infections. However, it indicates that further research is necessary to optimize formulations and ensure safety for clinical use.

This chapter reviews the causes, prevalence, and prognosis of androgenetic alopecia and discusses treatments like topical minoxidil and systemic finasteride to stop hair loss and potentially increase hair density.

AGA causes permanent hair loss; minoxidil helps men, finasteride helps men, minoxidil somewhat helps women, estrogens/antiandrogens lack evidence for women.

This study found that sheep testis extract significantly improved wound healing and hair follicle growth in rats, suggesting it may be a promising candidate for clinical wound healing research.

This review discusses the multifactorial etiology of hypospadias, including genetic predispositions and possible environmental factors, and highlights the need for further studies on genetic and environmental contributions to its increasing prevalence, without presenting new findings.

This case report highlights that women with nonclassical congenital adrenal hyperplasia should be aware of the risk of having a child with classical CAH if their partner also carries a severe mutation.

This publication reviews the World Professional Association for Transgender Health's Standards of Care for supporting transgender and gender nonconforming people, with adjustments needed for diverse global contexts and no new clinical results.

This paper reviews the diagnostic criteria, associated morbidities, and possible evolutionary advantages of polycystic ovary syndrome, but does not report any new findings.

The guideline recommends mental health involvement in diagnosing gender identity disorder and outlines hormone and surgical treatment protocols, emphasizing safety, informed consent, and long-term monitoring.

This review discusses the role of androgens in the progression of cardiovascular disease and explores novel therapeutic targets without reporting new clinical results.

This study found high levels of toxic heavy metals in water sources of mining communities in Abakaliki, Nigeria, posing potential health risks including Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases.

This review discusses the potential impact of endocrine-disrupting chemicals and body size on pubertal onset and progression, highlighting critical gaps and priorities for future research without presenting new clinical results.

This study found that dutasteride increased scalp hair growth in men with male pattern hair loss, particularly at a 2.5 mg dose, and was more effective than finasteride over 24 weeks.

This review discusses the various treatment options for male and female pattern hair loss and provides no new clinical results; the authors outline the most effective strategies based on existing evidence.

This review discusses the role of oestrogens in stimulating growth hormone secretion and influencing linear bone growth in children, and reports no new clinical results; the authors suggest that oestrogens play a key role in pubertal growth spurts for both genders.

The document concludes that the exact way alcohol causes harm to fetal development is unknown, but it significantly affects nutrient transport to the fetus and a safe level of alcohol during pregnancy is not determined.

This review discusses the effects of hormonal treatments on the physical and mental health of transgender individuals, reporting significant reductions in mental health issues following treatment, but calls for more research on long-term and nonbinary outcomes.

This review discusses the effects of testosterone therapy for transgender men, noting desired outcomes and potential risks, but reports no new research findings; the authors highlight a lack of high-quality data due to various study limitations.

This review discusses recent advancements in understanding and managing congenital adrenal hyperplasia, including improvements in screening, diagnostics, and potential genetic and cell-based treatments, but reports no new clinical findings.

This study found that trilostane was effective in resolving symptoms such as polyuria and polydipsia in many dogs with pituitary-dependent hyperadrenocorticism, with significant hormone level reductions observed.

This study found that oral finasteride 1 mg/day promotes hair growth and prevents further hair loss in a significant proportion of men with male pattern hair loss over two years.

This review examines the pharmacological evidence and bioactive compounds in Hibiscus plants, supporting their potential importance for developing treatments for chronic and degenerative diseases, though more research is needed.

This study found that prenatal exposure to finasteride in rats led to permanent changes in developmental endpoints like anogenital distance and nipple retention, which were predictive of further reproductive tract malformations.

This review examines the epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management strategies for non-classic congenital hyperplasia due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, and provides evidence-based recommendations for its treatment and genetic counseling.

This review suggests that understanding the biological and molecular reasons for more severe COVID-19 in men, particularly those at risk for prostate cancer, could improve management of these patients, but reports no new results.
