This article reviews the care of transgender patients, encompassing diagnosis, treatment options, and challenges in health care access, but does not present new research findings; the authors emphasize the critical role of providers in addressing transgender health needs.

This study found that both 2% and 3% minoxidil resulted in a significant increase in hair counts for participants with androgenetic alopecia over 12 months.

This review examines various androgen deprivation therapy methods for advanced prostate cancer, highlighting benefits and potential cardiovascular and sexual adverse effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This review proposes a classification system for childhood hair loss based on clinical appearance, age of onset, and associated symptoms, but reports no new clinical results.

This study using Mendelian randomization in UK Biobank data suggests that lifelong increased free testosterone may have mixed effects, including increased bone density and prostate cancer risk, warranting well-powered trials to address uncertainties.

In this study, finasteride treatment did not negatively impact bone development or density in male rats, suggesting that DHT deficiency is not harmful to the male rat skeleton.

This study examined children with trichotillomania using a set of specific questions to better understand the condition and aid clinicians who may be unfamiliar with it.

This study reported that both drospirenone and chlormadinone acetate oral contraceptives had similar beneficial effects on clinical, metabolic, and hormonal parameters in women with polycystic ovary syndrome over six months.

This review discusses diagnostic challenges and management approaches for pediatric hair disorders, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing between acquired and congenital conditions, and reports no clinical results.

This study found that testosterone increased the expression of AQP-1, 5, and 7 in the uterus of rats, which may help explain the reduction in uterine fluid volume.

This study found that long-term dutasteride therapy in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia worsened erectile dysfunction, reduced testosterone levels, and increased blood glucose and lipid profile, indicating negative metabolic impacts.

In this study, corn silk extract treatment improved symptoms of testosterone-induced BPH by reducing specific mRNA expression and decreasing levels of 5α-R2, DHT, and PSA.

In this study, the authors observed that testosterone therapy shortened the QTc interval and normalized T-wave morphology in men with acquired LQTS or TdP linked to hypogonadism, suggesting testosterone may be helpful in treatment.

This review discusses various skin diseases with endocrinological origins and reports no clinical results, highlighting the need for interdisciplinary understanding in diagnosis.

This study found that experienced Australian prescribers of hormone therapy for transgender adults often follow international guidelines but highlight the need for better training and specific local guidelines.

This study found that N-acetyl-glucosamine-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers showed promise for skin lightening in healthy volunteers by reducing melanin distribution.

This study found that finasteride impaired object recognition memory and altered hippocampal dendritic structures in male 3xTg-AD mice, suggesting potential sex differences in Alzheimer's disease pathology.

This study found that hair follicle cells' growth in vitro is influenced by the concentration of androgens and antiandrogens, with papilla cells and outer root sheath keratinocytes showing distinct sensitivity.

This review discusses how COVID-19 may affect gonadal function and potential gender differences, but reports no clinical results; it highlights possible mechanisms and new treatment approaches from recent literature.

This study observed that a topical liposome formulation of a 5‐α‐reductase inhibitor effectively reduced the size of treated sebaceous glands and induced apoptosis in a hamster model, suggesting potential benefits for acne treatment.

This study suggests that high proliferative activity and peripheral invasion are key indicators of malignancy in canine sebaceous gland tumours. It also reports a higher incidence of circumanal gland and testicular tumours, indicating a possible androgen-related pathway in tumour development.

This article reviews the diagnosis and treatment of clinical hair loss without providing new clinical results.

This report presents a case of new-onset androgenic alopecia in a patient following the use of the hCG diet combined with testosterone pellet implantation.

This study found that in men with androgenetic alopecia, elevated triglycerides were the only factor consistently associated with the condition, suggesting a potential link between AGA and lipid metabolism, although other hormonal, metabolic, and sleep factors were not significantly different after propensity score matching.

In this study, male patients treated with 150 mCi of radioactive iodine showed no negative impact on fertility, but long-term studies with larger groups are needed to further assess hormonal effects and sperm health after this treatment.

This review outlines the role of testosterone in male sexual development and its therapeutic use for male hypogonadism, covering its biosynthesis, secretion, metabolism, and various biological actions, but does not report specific study results.

This review discusses the role of neurosteroids and androgens throughout different life stages, noting the potential disruptions caused by 5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride, but no new clinical results are reported.

Men with early balding should be checked for metabolic syndrome, as there's a link between the two.

This study found that reducing testosterone levels in male mice accelerates wound healing and decreases inflammation, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for improving wound repair in elderly males.

This study observed that PD-1+CXCR5-CD4+T peripheral helper cells are significantly elevated in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and are correlated with disease activity indicators, suggesting their potential role in lupus pathogenesis.
