This study highlights the diverse applications of *Perilla frutescens* in traditional medicine, cuisine, and industrial settings, noting its significant antioxidant and antimicrobial properties in experimental models, as well as research efforts to enhance its bioactive content and ensure safety and standardization.

This study found an association between higher phthalate exposure and increased incidence of precocious puberty in girls, suggesting a need to reduce children's exposure to these endocrine disruptors.

This research found that Leydig cells significantly rely on synthesizing omega-6 HUFAs to support male steroid hormone production, highlighting a new role for these fatty acids in the male reproductive system.

This chapter reviews the role of the testes in producing and functioning of testicular androgens and protein hormones, but it presents no new clinical results.

This review highlights the role of chronic stress, oxidative stress, and immune processes in the development of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis and polycystic ovary syndrome, emphasizing the potential of antioxidants in their treatment based on the existing literature.

This review highlights that various commonly prescribed medications for chronic conditions may impact male fertility by affecting hormone secretion, sperm production, ejaculation, erectile function, and libido, although conclusive evidence is limited to specific drug groups.

This review examines the pathogenesis of androgen excess and dyslipidemia in PCOS and the potential role of statins as a treatment but provides no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of skeletal muscle in synthesizing bioactive androgens, highlighting that intramuscular androgens may influence muscle via intracrine action, but their precise function remains unclear.

This consensus document discusses guidelines for gender-affirming hormone therapy in India, offering recommendations based on a review of existing evidence and expert input, without reporting new clinical results.

This review discusses the relationship between polycystic ovary syndrome and inflammation, highlighting various inflammatory markers, but reports no new clinical results.

In this retrospective review, the author discusses key discoveries in understanding androgen excess disorders like PCOS, focusing on genetic and molecular insights gained from 1965 to 2015.

This review discusses the roles of sex hormones in COVID-19 progression and highlights conflicting evidence on their protective effects and the complexity of sex and gender influences on the disease.

In this study, metal-organic frameworks modified with stearic acid were used to deliver cardamonin to hair follicles, significantly promoting hair growth and cell proliferation in testosterone-challenged mice, suggesting potential benefits for androgenic alopecia treatment.

This study found that both a proprietary ultrahigh-pressure extract and a hexanic extract of saw palmetto showed comparable inhibition of 5α-reductase, suggesting similar potential for managing symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This study found that combining fructose and DHT in rats successfully mimicked the clinical phenotypes of non-lean PCOS, providing a novel rodent model for this condition.

This article reviews the development of selective androgen receptor modulators and myostatin inhibitors as performance-enhancing drugs, highlighting ongoing challenges in achieving truly tissue-selective anabolic agents and reporting no new experimental findings.

This study developed a validated gas chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay to assess sex steroid hormones in cerebrospinal fluid, finding substantial levels of DHEA, androstenedione, and testosterone, with strong correlations to serum levels, providing insight into sex steroid dynamics in the human CNS.

This review assesses the potential of dutasteride as a promising treatment for ALS due to its reported neuroprotective, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory effects, but emphasizes that clinical studies are needed for confirmation.

This study found that prolonged use of finasteride in women led to altered levels of sex steroids, DNA damage, and increased menstrual bleeding, suggesting adverse health effects without clear benefits for androgenetic alopecia treatment.

This study found that adequate vitamin D status is necessary for metformin to effectively reduce prolactin levels in men with iatrogenic hyperprolactinemia, while improvements in glycemic control were observed across all vitamin D groups.

In this study, researchers found that exosome-like nanoparticles isolated from Polygoni Multiflori Radix can promote hair growth in mice by modulating androgen signaling and gene expression, outperforming Minoxidil in testosterone-induced conditions.

A dissolving microneedle patch with dutasteride offers effective, long-lasting hair loss treatment with fewer side effects.

This review examines the hormonal causes of hair loss, noting how androgen excess can lead to follicle miniaturization and linking estrogen deficiency and thyroid dysfunction to common alopecia types. It further discusses hormonal treatments such as finasteride, dutasteride, and spironolactone.

This study found that metformin's effect on reducing prolactin levels is less pronounced in women with PCOS compared to control subjects, likely due to higher endogenous testosterone levels, despite improvements in insulin sensitivity in both groups after six months of treatment.

This review discusses the degenerative effects of anabolic-androgenic steroids on the nervous system and reports no new experimental results, aiming to increase public awareness of their health risks.
