This review discusses the potential of using human hair proteomics for non-invasive diagnostic and forensic applications but reports no new results; the authors highlight areas needing further research.

This review discusses the dermatological impacts of hypogonadism in men, including skin thinning, reduced body hair, and skin reactions to testosterone therapy, but reports no new clinical results.

In this study, exposure to the drug finasteride in Silurana tropicalis significantly increased testosterone levels in liver and testis tissues and altered gene expression related to male reproduction and oxidative stress.

This study found that long-term finasteride therapy in men with BPH worsened erectile dysfunction and reduced testosterone levels, while these effects were not observed with tamsulosin.

This study found that the modified wash test was generally more effective than TrichoScan® for diagnosing hair loss, particularly telogen effluvium, though both methods showed only fair concordance with clinical diagnosis.

This study found that administering testosterone to ovariectomized female rats decreased endometrial tight junction complexity and expression of specific proteins, potentially affecting embryo implantation.

In a clinical trial, this study found that a modified slow-release oral testosterone formulation improved pharmacokinetics, delaying serum testosterone peaks and reducing serum DHT compared to immediate-release formulations, especially when combined with finasteride.

This review outlines the strategies for managing TB-IRIS in HIV patients, emphasizing early detection, prevention, and appropriate treatment to reduce morbidity and mortality.

In this systematic review, researchers observed that Toxoplasma gondii infection is associated with alterations in testosterone levels, generally increasing in humans but showing mixed effects in animals, highlighting a complex relationship that warrants further investigation.

This study found that IL-7 is crucial for the survival of memory regulatory T cells in the skin of mice, whereas IL-2 is essential for their initial generation but not for their maintenance.

In this study, blocking the CXCR3 receptor in mice prevented the development of alopecia areata by inhibiting the accumulation of specific T cells in the skin, suggesting a potential therapeutic approach for humans.

This study demonstrated that CD19-CAR T cell therapy may promote structural regeneration in the skin of systemic sclerosis patients, as evidenced by histological improvements and fibroblast population changes, suggesting its potential for tissue remodeling in fibrotic diseases.

This review discusses the use of antimüllerian hormone as a marker of ovarian reserve in infertility diagnosis and treatment, noting it reflects oocyte quantity but not health or pregnancy likelihood.

In this study, researchers developed a new 3D skin equivalent assay using mouse epidermal and dermal cells that successfully regenerated organized hair follicles, outperforming a 2D model in hair follicle orientation and quantity, and enhanced hair growth when Wnt3a was added.

This study models the pathways of nandrolone and its metabolites in the body and suggests methods to counteract finasteride's role in enabling PED users to cheat drug tests.

This review explores the significant impacts of hormonal changes within normal physiological ranges and suggests examining low-dose effects from chemicals disrupting hormonal activity; it presents no new clinical results.

Small hormonal imbalances can cause significant health problems, so more sensitive testing for hormone-disrupting chemicals is needed.

This study found that the antidepressant-like effect of fluoxetine in mice was only observed when a 5-minute pretest session was conducted, and this effect was blocked by the TSPO antagonist PK11195.

Bee pollen, green tea, essential oils, and various plant extracts improve skin and hair health.

This study found that women with PCOS have elevated serum androgen levels throughout adulthood, with these levels decreasing and variations increasing as they approach menopause.

This case report describes a 28-year-old woman with facial, abdominal, and thigh hirsutism who showed little improvement after 5 months of Metformin and spironolactone treatment.

This study found that finasteride significantly suppresses serum dihydrotestosterone levels at all tested doses in normal male volunteers without significant adverse effects.

In this case study, a 12-year-old boy with Cushing's Disease experienced a complex diagnostic journey; ultimately, a left-side ACTH-secreting microadenoma was identified and treated with gamma knife therapy, normalizing hypercortisolism but resulting in growth hormone deficiency.

This research observed that oral testosterone replacement therapy significantly increases cardiovascular risk, while effects of injected or transdermal therapy on cardiovascular risk were not significant, prompting further investigation into these methods.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, but reports no new research results.

In this study, the authors concluded that COVID-19 may not cause direct long-term harm to testicular function, but temporary indirect effects could occur, suggesting a possible delay in pursuing parenthood post-recovery.

In this study, patients receiving adipose-derived stromal vascular cell transplantation for alopecia areata experienced significant hair regeneration, increased growth, and improved hair quality after 3 and 6 months, indicating potential efficacy of this stem cell-based therapy for hair loss.

This article discusses diagnostic guidelines for PCOS, emphasizing the use of the Rotterdam criteria and recommending clomiphene citrate as the first-line treatment for ovulation induction; it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of functional hypothalamic amenorrhea in adolescent girls and reports no new clinical results.

This article discusses concerns and recommendations from a French-speaking andrology society regarding COVID-19's potential impact on men's reproductive health and calls for further research in this area.
