This review addresses the effects of testosterone on brain development and examines both the established sex differences in brain functions and the debate surrounding structural dimorphism in neuropsychiatric conditions.

This study found that Ganoderma lucidum extracts reduced prostate enlargement and improved symptoms in testosterone-treated rats, suggesting potential benefits for managing benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This review highlights the mixed roles of testosterone in COVID-19, noting both potential benefits through anti-inflammatory effects and risks due to increased virus entry, with low testosterone linked to increased severity.

The researchers suggest that testosterone levels might influence COVID-19 susceptibility and severity, with low levels potentially protecting against infection but possibly worsening severe disease due to cytokine storm activation.

This study found that MENT is 10 times more potent than testosterone in suppressing gonadotropins and contributing to anabolism in monkeys, with a potentially wider therapeutic index for human androgen replacement and male contraception.

This study provides a guideline for the safe and effective use of testosterone in women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder, recommending systemic transdermal testosterone for appropriate candidates while highlighting the importance of informed consent and monitoring due to unestablished long-term safety.

This study concluded that both vaginal TEST and Estring may be effective for treating vaginal dryness in breast cancer patients on aromatase inhibitors, with adverse events being rare and manageable.

This review discusses the impact of testosterone therapy on postmenopausal women's sexual function and well-being but notes a lack of long-term safety studies and debates on defining androgen insufficiency.

This study reported that derivatization with 5-butylpicolinic acid improved the sensitivity for detecting testosterone and DHT in saliva using LC-ESI-MS/MS, with minimal interference from the saliva matrix.

This case report describes a testosterone- and cortisol-secreting adrenocortical oncocytoma causing hirsutism in a 23-year-old woman, highlighting adrenal oncocytomas as an important consideration for differential diagnosis.

This study emphasizes the necessity of confirming elevated testosterone levels detected by immunoassay with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy before pursuing more complex diagnostic evaluations.

In this study, researchers observed that a significant number of women in Eket, Nigeria, have low testosterone levels, while a subset with high free testosterone may have polycystic ovary syndrome.

This study used enhanced Raman spectroscopy to successfully detect ultra-low levels of free testosterone in women with PCOS, suggesting a potential low-cost method for early diagnosis.

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 V-ATPase plays a role in the acidification of vas deferens fluid under the influence of testosterone in orchidectomized rats.

This chapter reviews the clinical effects of androgens like testosterone and its metabolites on various body systems and life stages, but reports no new results.

In this study, Quercetin-loaded black seed oil nanoemulsion effectively mitigated testosterone-induced testicular oxidative stress and inflammation in rats undergoing exercise and restraint stress, with improved antioxidant levels and reduced inflammatory markers compared to other treatment groups.

This study found that applying an ethanol extract of Prasiola japonica improved hair regrowth, length, and follicular density in testosterone-induced hair loss conditions in mice, while also promoting dermal papilla cell proliferation and reducing dihydrotestosterone production, though effects were less pronounced than those of minoxidil.

In this case report, a male patient with hair loss showed unusually high testosterone levels without other symptoms or supplement use; follow-up testing revealed normal levels, showcasing the importance of considering testosterone-protein binding differences and using equilibrium dialysis for accurate assessment.

In this study, researchers reported that standardized rosemary and capsicum extracts significantly improved hair growth parameters such as follicle density, length, and diameter in rats with testosterone-induced alopecia, suggesting these extracts may aid in more effective natural treatments for androgenetic alopecia.

This study observed that testosterone concentrations in hair segments show some stability over time, but are influenced by factors like sebum integration, hair washing frequency, and individual hair growth rates.

This study suggests that the testosterone analogs 7α-Methyltestosterone and 7α-Ethyltestosterone may offer promising androgenic, progestogenic, and anabolic properties for development as male contraceptives.

This study found that laparoscopic ovarian drilling effectively decreased LH and testosterone levels, aiding fertility in PCOS patients nonresponsive to certain medications, without negatively impacting ovarian reserve.

This study found that women undergoing mid-trimester termination of pregnancy exhibited increased cumulative cortisol and testosterone levels in hair samples, higher anxiety, but better stress coping strategies two months post-abortion, suggesting hair testosterone may be linked to emotional vulnerability such as neuroticism during this period.

In this pilot randomized clinical trial, TRT combined with finasteride increased lean mass, muscle size, and bone mineral density without prostate enlargement in men with spinal cord injury, suggesting potential benefits for body composition and musculoskeletal health.

This article discusses the various administration methods and considerations for testosterone replacement therapy, highlighting the importance of individualized therapeutic monitoring and potential adverse effects, but reports no new clinical results.

This review describes the clinical features of testosterone deficiency syndrome in aging men but reports no new experimental findings, highlighting the need for clinical recognition and treatment of TDS.

This review discusses the effects of testosterone therapy for transgender men, noting desired outcomes and potential risks, but reports no new research findings; the authors highlight a lack of high-quality data due to various study limitations.

This study suggests that red ginseng rhizome extracts, particularly ginsenoside Ro, may promote hair re-growth in an androgenetic alopecia model due to their inhibitory activity on testosterone 5α-reductase.

This study found that combining cyproterone acetate with testosterone enanthate was highly effective in suppressing spermatogenesis, suggesting potential as a reversible male contraceptive method.
