This review discusses the negative effects of anabolic androgenic steroids on various organ systems in men and reports no new results, highlighting the need for physician awareness.

This study found that a composition including Serenoa repens extract and anti-inflammatory agents effectively suppressed inflammation-related gene expression in a keratinocyte model, suggesting a potential dual strategy for treating androgenetic alopecia.

This study concludes that phospholipid–polymer hybrid nanoparticles may be an effective delivery system for quercetin in treating androgenic alopecia by improving hair regrowth and preventing hair follicle cell apoptosis in rat models.

This study identified previously unknown phase I and phase II metabolites of finasteride in human bile and urine using a specialized bile collection technique and advanced mass spectrometry analysis.

This study developed a pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model for finasteride, concluding that finasteride's nonlinear pharmacokinetics are likely due to its saturable binding to 5alphaR2.

This review discusses treatments for female acne, highlighting the effectiveness of low-dose oral contraceptives and noting their similar side effects to placebo; it reports no new clinical results.

Two non-steroidal antiandrogens, RU 58841 and RU 56187, form a common metabolite at different rates, which may influence their effects; RU 56187 could be used for prostate cancer treatment and RU 58841 for acne treatment.

This review discusses the role of diet in managing hair loss during menopause and reports no new clinical results; it highlights the importance of nutrients like sulfur amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.

This review discusses various treatments for hirsutism, including cosmetic techniques, anti-androgens like spironolactone, and new drugs such as finasteride and flutamide, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review explores cannabigerol (CBG) as a potential therapeutic agent with various pharmacological activities but reports no new clinical results, emphasizing the need for further research on its efficacy and safety.

This study focused on designing a niosome formulation that encapsulates pumpkin seed oil for topical use, achieving high entrapment efficiency and stability over three months.

This study introduced a novel nonsteroidal androgen receptor antagonist that effectively controls sebum production in the golden Syrian hamster ear model through targeted follicular delivery.

This review discusses current challenges in selective androgen receptor modulator discovery and preclinical evaluation and reports no new results, emphasizing the need for basic research to improve safety and selectivity.

This review discusses various chromatographic methods for analyzing finasteride in biological fluids and provides no clinical findings, focusing on detection techniques for different concentration levels.

This study found that finasteride treatment in male rats altered steroid hormone homeostasis and caused kidney damage, suggesting potential risks for patients with renal dysfunction on androgen or antiandrogen therapy.

This review discusses the development and trials of finasteride for prostate cancer prevention, reporting reduced cancer prevalence but noting concerns about increased high-grade cancer incidence.

This study validated a highly selective and fast LC–MS/MS method for accurately measuring levels of tadalafil and finasteride in human plasma, adhering to international bioanalytical guidelines.

Finasteride doesn't affect antipyrine metabolism, so interactions with cytochrome P-450 enzyme drugs are unlikely.

In this study, researchers found that overweight and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome showed adverse changes in glucose metabolism over time, highlighting the importance of early intervention to prevent cardiometabolic diseases.

This study reported that a subcutaneous injection formulation using PLGA microspheres to release finasteride stably achieved sustained monthly drug delivery without burst release in beagle dogs, with a dose of 16.8 mg identified as optimal for potential first-in-human trials.

This study found that injectable finasteride microspheres provided a sustained drug release with a minimal initial burst in albino rabbits compared to oral suspension.

Finasteride interacts with terazosin, but not doxazosin; caution needed.

This review found that hormonal therapies, including FDA-approved combined oral contraceptive pills and spironolactone, are effective and well-tolerated treatments for acne vulgaris in adolescents with or without endocrine disorders, providing alternative options to antibiotics.

In this study, the researchers reported that while both propylene glycol and sodium lauryl sulfate enhanced finasteride's skin deposition, ethanol was the only effective enhancer of finasteride's permeation through the skin.

In this study, using a novel topical androgen receptor suppressor, fluridil, significantly increased the percentage of growing hairs in males with androgenetic alopecia without systemic absorption or adverse side effects.

This meta-analysis reported that finasteride 1 mg/day significantly increased hair count in male androgenetic alopecia compared to placebo, but highlighted persistent sexual side effects and associated depression risk.

This study developed finasteride-containing granules using a method that improved follicular targeting for androgenic alopecia and reported potential for easy industrial production.

This study concluded that the Box-Behnken experimental design effectively optimizes the size of finasteride nano-emulsions by assessing the impact of various experimental factors.

This study found that high-dose pterostilbene potentially reduced prostate hyperplasia and had strong antioxidant effects in male rats with benign prostatic hyperplasia, suggesting it might be more effective than vitamin C and resveratrol in similar contexts.

This article discusses the role of zinc in reducing depression severity and reports no new research findings, emphasizing the need for further investigation into its therapeutic potential.
