In this study, transgender adolescents treated with testosterone for a median of 12 months experienced effective virilization, including voice deepening and increased hair growth, but also showed decreased HDL cholesterol and BMD z-scores, and increased hematocrit, with no short-term safety issues reported.

This study confirmed that a sulfotransferase enzyme test can effectively rule out 95.9% of nonresponders to 5% topical minoxidil for treating androgenetic alopecia.

In this study, researchers evaluated the hair pull test and found that normal values should be reduced to two hairs or fewer, with no significant impact from hair washing, brushing, or lifestyle factors such as hair texture and medication use.

This review discusses the negative health impacts of testosterone deficiency and the potential adverse effects of 5α-reductase inhibitors, emphasizing the need for patient-physician discussions regarding these treatments.

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 suggests that in gilthead seabream, DHT is involved in the onset of the meiotic phase of spermatogenesis and influences serum levels of E2 through regulation of aromatase activity.

In this study, exposure to the drug finasteride in Silurana tropicalis significantly increased testosterone levels in liver and testis tissues and altered gene expression related to male reproduction and oxidative stress.

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 article discusses the kinetic and topographical heterogeneity in follicular thyroid neoplasms and reports no new research findings; the authors emphasize understanding diverse growth patterns.

This systematic review of Mendelian randomization studies reports that autoimmune thyroid disease is associated with increased risk for numerous health conditions, including coronary atherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis, while decreasing risks for others, such as lung cancer.

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.

This study found that finasteride treatment in male rats may lead to changes in connexin 43 expression in the testes of their offspring, potentially affecting spermatogenesis.

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 article reports two cases where ovarian hyperthecosis caused hyperandrogenism in postmenopausal women, confirmed by imaging and resolved after bilateral oophorectomy.

This study found that androgenic hormone levels did not explain growth differences between furless and furred male rabbits, despite a potential growth advantage in furless rabbits.

This review concluded that for women, the benefits of testosterone implants are outweighed by risks, with possible higher rates of irreversible adverse effects than previously reported.

This study found that silver nanoparticles synthesized using Mitracarpus scaber extract showed potential hepatoprotective and anti-hyperplastic effects in rats, suggesting novel therapeutic strategies for managing liver injury and benign prostatic hyperplasia.

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 systematic review, researchers observed that Toxoplasma gondii infection is associated with alterations in testosterone levels, generally increasing in humans but showing mixed effects in animals, highlighting a complex relationship that warrants further investigation.

This study found that administering an alcoholic extract of Mentha spicata leaves significantly reduced testosterone levels and aggressive behavior in female rats with elevated testosterone, suggesting its potential protective role against such symptoms.

This study found that Helianthus annuus oil promoted hair growth in a testosterone-induced alopecia mouse model, with higher hair density observed compared to untreated mice, though it was less effective than the standard minoxidil treatment.

This case report highlights Leydig cell hyperplasia as a rare cause of increased testosterone and postmenopausal hirsutism, resolved after bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy in a 64-year-old woman.

This study found that in women with PCOS in Port Harcourt, Nigeria, glucose homeostatic disorders were common, particularly among those with higher testosterone levels, suggesting the need for glucose disorder screening in this population.

In this case report, the researchers observed that a woman with longstanding Alopecia Universalis, who had not responded to various treatments, experienced hair regrowth and improved quality of life after two years of individualized homeopathic treatment centered around Natrum Muriaticum.

This study suggests that finasteride at doses of 5 mg/kg BW or higher may adversely affect spermatogenesis and male fertility in NMRI mice.

This study reports a novel TRbeta gene mutation associated with resistance to thyroid hormone syndrome, which may contribute to various forms of alopecia in the affected family members.

This study found that the LH response to nafarelin effectively distinguished gonadotropin deficiency from constitutional delay of puberty, performing comparably to the sleep test and offering certain advantages.

In this study, researchers found that overt hyperthyroidism was the most prevalent thyroid disorder among patients, especially in women, and it was characterized by classic symptoms like high pulse rate and weight loss, highlighting the importance of early identification and management to prevent complications.

This review discusses the use of antimüllerian hormone as a marker of ovarian reserve in infertility diagnosis and treatment, noting it reflects oocyte quantity but not health or pregnancy likelihood.
