research Effects of Flutamide and Finasteride on Rat Testicular Descent
Androgens, like testosterone, are crucial for early testicular descent in rats.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research Basics of Androgen Synthesis and Action
Androgens like testosterone are important hormones for both men and women, made differently in each sex and affecting the body by regulating genes and quick interactions with cell components.
research Urinary Steroids in Men with Male-Pattern Alopecia
Men with male-pattern baldness have higher levels of certain testosterone metabolites and may have more active androgen metabolism.
research The Differences Between Aromatizable And Non-Aromatizable Androgens In Relation To Body Composition And Metabolic Syndrome Risk Factors In Men
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone have similar effects on body composition and metabolic health in men.
