Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.

Finasteride may improve stem cell therapy for heart attacks by increasing cell survival.

The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.

Treatments for hair loss include hormone modifiers, minoxidil, and hair transplant surgery.

Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.

The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.

Hormonal interactions, especially involving DHT and estrogen, play a key role in BPH development and treatment.

Too much androgen can cause hair loss; finasteride may help.

Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.

Hormones and metabolism play a complex role in prostate enlargement, and more research is needed to improve diagnosis and treatment.

Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.

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

Finasteride increases hair density in female androgenetic alopecia, but individual results may vary.

Men with male-pattern baldness have more androgen receptors in their scalp's oil glands, which may contribute to hair loss.

The document concludes that more research is needed to understand excessive hair growth in women with normal hormone levels and regular ovulation.

Male genital development is driven by androgen signaling and understanding it could help address congenital anomalies.

New steroidal compounds could be effective for treating conditions related to 5α-reductase enzyme activity.

Current treatments for male pattern baldness include minoxidil and finasteride, with new options being developed.

Dihydrotestosterone can be made from dehydroepiandrosterone in skin cells without needing testosterone.

Minoxidil and caffeine in transfersomes improve hair growth treatment.

Finasteride effectively treats male hair loss, improving growth and density.

Citrullus colocynthis fruit extract may effectively treat testosterone-related hair loss, similar to finasteride.

5-alpha-reductase inhibitors may cause a low incidence of erectile dysfunction that decreases over time.

Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.

New compounds may soon be tested to treat excessive hair growth in women.

Forsythiaside-A, a natural substance, can protect against hair loss and is more effective than current treatments, potentially making it a good option for hair loss treatment.

Certain Chinese herbs, especially Cacumen platycladi, can promote hair regrowth and reduce hair loss-related hormone levels in mice.

Hair regrowth slows with age and can be affected by treatments that change enzyme activity in the skin.

Some new progesterone derivatives are better at blocking testosterone conversion than a common drug.

New research is needed to create better drugs that block the enzyme responsible for conditions like male baldness and prostate enlargement.
