This narrative review synthesized current research on hormonal therapies in cosmetic dermatology, finding they offer promising, evidence-based applications for conditions like aging skin, acne, and melasma, but noting that safety and personalized treatment approaches are essential for responsible clinical use.

This study produced a guide for managing adult female acne, addressing its complex nature compared to teenage acne, and providing detailed recommendations on diagnosis and treatment. The authors noted that further research is needed to better understand the condition.

This review explores the complex endocrine functions of human skin and its role as a peripheral endocrine organ, but reports no new clinical results.

This study synthesized nonsteroidal ligands as second-generation androgen receptor agonists and identified three compounds with significant anabolic activity and moderate to minimal androgenic activity in vivo.

This review describes the shift in treating symptomatic benign prostatic hyperplasia from surgery to 5alpha-reductase inhibitor drugs, which may provide symptom relief and alter BPH's progression, but reports no new clinical results.

This article reviews the impact of diet on acne, suggesting that dairy and high-glycemic foods may contribute to acne development, but it presents no new clinical findings.

This study found that active androgens activate lipogenic differentiation in human sebocytes expressing a functional androgen receptor, influencing gene expression and lipid synthesis, while also increasing apoptotic cell population over time.

This study found that variations in Kv1 channel gene expression in the electric organ of Sternopygus correlate with sex differences and individual variations in their electric communication signals.

This study indicated that administering letrozole to Swiss albino mice may have anticonvulsant effects against kainic acid-induced seizures by inhibiting testosterone aromatization to 17β-estradiol and increasing anticonvulsant metabolites in the hippocampus.

This review reports that low-dose oral minoxidil can cause hypertrichosis due to increased systemic absorption, and highlights the importance of patient-centered care to manage the psychosocial impacts of this side effect effectively.

This study found that sex hormones, specifically non-aromatizable androgens like DHT and A/T, significantly increase inflammatory cytokine expression in human adipocytes when stimulated by LPS.

This article describes adult female acne as a complex condition affected by genetic, hormonal, and environmental factors, with hormonal therapies highlighted as particularly valuable for treatment.

This study found that low androgen levels in rat penile endothelial cells were associated with a decrease in eNOS-expressing extracellular vesicles and reduced nitric oxide production.

Women have a higher DHT/testosterone ratio than men, possibly due to gut bacteria activity.

In this study, researchers developed a nanocomposite microneedle patch containing copper/zinc dual-doped silica nanoparticles, which release substances to promote hair follicle regeneration by targeting various pathophysiological aspects of androgenic alopecia, presenting an effective anti-hair loss treatment strategy.

This review discusses the pathogenesis and diagnosis of alopecia and acne, emphasizing the need for coordinated treatment approaches in conditions like FPHL/AGA and complex acne, but reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses recent advancements in understanding the pathophysiology of androgenetic alopecia and highlights the potential for multilateral topical therapies to improve treatment efficacy with fewer side effects; it reports no new clinical results.

This review concludes that finasteride and dutasteride are the most evidence-supported oral treatments for androgenetic alopecia, with dutasteride offering slightly greater hair count improvements and both affected by genetic response modifiers.

This study reviews the effectiveness and safety of finasteride and dutasteride for treating androgenetic alopecia, highlighting that dutasteride reduces DHT more deeply than finasteride, with genetic factors influencing patient response and both drugs being evidence-supported options for men and women.

This source describes a collection of geometric medicine formulations aimed at comprehensive hair restoration and permanent hair removal, with claimed simulation results indicating complete baldness reversal and effective hair removal, but results are sourced from theoretical and simulation-based findings without reported clinical trials.

This abstract describes a hair treatment series promising complete restoration of hair in cases of baldness and permanent hair removal, supported by theoretical formulations but without clinical result reports.

Lactiplantibacillus plantarum ZJUIDS51 can help regrow hair and improve scalp health in androgenic alopecia.

This study found that the 15-PGDH inhibitor DPP improved endothelial function in hair-related cells exposed to DHT by reducing oxidative stress and enhancing angiogenic capacity.

This review synthesizes recent molecular and preclinical advances in alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia, highlighting how interventions targeting specific intracellular signaling pathways and utilizing stem cell technologies can support precision regrowth and structural follicle reconstruction.

In this study, researchers developed a novel nucleic acid nanoparticle system incorporating quercetin, which they found enhances functional hair follicle regeneration and maintains epithelial structure stability in androgenetic alopecia by regulating hair follicle stem and dermal papilla cells.

This study found that hair steroid profiling is a feasible, non-invasive alternative to serum analysis in adolescents, with androgen levels correlating more strongly with body size and composition in boys than girls.

This study found that in PCOS patients, a lower TT/DHT ratio is associated with regular menstruation, while higher ratios are linked to insulin resistance, suggesting its potential as a biomarker for metabolic severity in these patients.

This study discusses the potential of topical retinoids, vitamin A derivatives, to improve treatment outcomes for androgenetic alopecia by promoting hair growth through extending the anagen phase and stimulating follicular activity, offering a promising approach when combined with existing therapies.

In this study, hemp seed-derived exosomes (E40) showed potential for counteracting DHT-induced inhibition of feather follicle development in chicken embryos by modulating critical signaling pathways, suggesting a therapeutic approach for alopecia.

This study synthesized and evaluated hydroxycinnamate derivatives for their ability to inhibit human SRD5A1, finding that three compounds showed significant inhibitory activity and low cytotoxicity. Compound 10a notably reduced SRD5A1 protein expression in cells, suggesting potential for nonsteroidal treatment of androgen-related conditions.
