research Physiology of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Gonadal Axis in the Male
The document explains how the male reproductive system works, its role in making testosterone, and how conditions like obesity can disrupt it, leading to low testosterone and fertility issues.
research Anti-Androgenic Activities of Ganoderma Lucidum
Ganoderma lucidum, a type of mushroom, may help treat enlarged prostate by blocking testosterone conversion.
research Anti-Androgenic Activities of the Triterpenoids Fraction of Ganoderma Lucidum
The triterpenoids from Ganoderma lucidum can block testosterone effects and may help treat enlarged prostate.
research The Dihydrotestosterone Hypothesis of Prostate Cancer and Its Therapeutic Implications
The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.
research The Therapeutic Use of Androgens in Women
Testosterone replacement may improve sexual desire and bone health in women with low androgen levels, but more research is needed on its long-term safety.
research Sex Steroid Synthesis in Human Skin In Situ: The Roles of Aromatase and Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein in the Homeostasis of Human Skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research Endocrine Care of Transpeople Part I: A Review of Cross-Sex Hormonal Treatments, Outcomes, and Adverse Effects in Transmen
Testosterone therapy is generally safe for transmen, improves sexual function, and has manageable health risks with proper monitoring.
research Metabolomic Biomarkers in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Pilot Study
Certain metabolites are lower in women with PCOS and could be potential markers for the condition.
research Controversies Regarding Transdermal Androgen Therapy in Postmenopausal Women
Testosterone therapy may slightly improve sexual function in postmenopausal women, but its long-term safety is unknown.
research Effects of Finasteride, a 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor, on Circulating Androgens and Gonadotropin Secretion in Hirsute Women
Finasteride reduces dihydrotestosterone, increases testosterone, and may treat hirsutism in women.
research Testosterone-Secreting Adrenal Adenoma Containing Crystalloids of Reinke in an Adult Female Patient
Leydig cells can cause testosterone-secreting adrenal tumors in women.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and the Differential Diagnosis of Hyperandrogenism
The document concludes that careful evaluation is needed to diagnose PCOS correctly due to similar symptoms in other conditions, and accurate testosterone level measurement is crucial.
research Novel Uses for the Anabolic Androgenic Steroids Nandrolone and Oxandrolone in the Management of Male Health
Nandrolone and oxandrolone could help treat male health issues like muscle loss and low testosterone.
research Antiandrogenic Activities of Glycyrrhiza Glabra in Male Rats
Liquorice may reduce testosterone and affect male reproductive organs, potentially helping treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research Circulating Testosterone and Feather-Gene Expression of Receptors and Metabolic Enzymes in Relation to Melanin-Based Coloration in the Barn Owl
Barn owls with smaller black spots have higher testosterone levels, which might be due to genetic effects on hormone regulation rather than hormone effects on coloration.
research Polymorphisms in Androgen and Estrogen Receptor Genes: Effects on Male Aging
Changes in testosterone and estrogen receptor genes can affect how men age, influencing body fat, hair patterns, and possibly leading to skin disorders.
research Inhibitory Effects of Serenoa Repens on the Kinetics of Pig Prostatic Microsomal 5α-Reductase Activity
Saw palmetto extract can block the enzyme that converts testosterone in pig prostate cells.
research Kinetic Analysis of LY320236: Competitive Inhibitor of Type I and Non-Competitive Inhibitor of Type II Human Steroid 5α-Reductase
LY320236 is a strong blocker of two enzymes that change testosterone into dihydrotestosterone and might help treat conditions related to male hormones.
research Androgens and the Menopause
Testosterone replacement may help postmenopausal women with sexual function and bone density, but suitable treatments are limited.
research Serum Concentrations of Dihydrotestosterone Are Associated With Symptoms of Hypogonadism in Biochemically Eugonadal Men
Higher DHT levels are linked to fewer hypogonadism symptoms in men with normal testosterone levels.
research Sub-Chronic Effects of a Phthirusa Pyrifolia Aqueous Extract on Reproductive Function and Comparative Hormone Levels in Male Rats
Phthirusa pyrifolia extract may lower testosterone and harm male rat reproduction without damaging the liver or kidneys.
research Finasteride Inhibits 5α-Reductase Activity in Human Dermal Fibroblasts: Prediction of Its Therapeutic Application in Androgen-Related Skin Diseases
Finasteride helps treat skin issues like acne and baldness by blocking testosterone conversion.
research Ovarian Vein Sampling, and Serum and Urine Testosterone Monitoring in Ovarian Leydig Cell Tumors: A Report of Two Cases
Ovarian vein sampling helped diagnose rare ovarian tumors causing high testosterone, and surgery to remove the tumors lowered the testosterone levels.
