This study found that non-alcoholic fatty pancreas disease is significantly more prevalent in women with polycystic ovary syndrome, and is associated with metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and hyperandrogenism.

This case report describes a 47-year-old woman diagnosed with a rare Sertoliform endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary, emphasizing its early-stage presentation and generally favorable prognosis.

This case report describes a postmenopausal woman with hirsutism and hair loss attributed to ovarian stromal hyperplasia; surgical removal of the ovaries normalized testosterone levels and resolved symptoms.

This case report involved a premenopausal woman with rapidly progressing virilizing symptoms caused by a rare sertoliform endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary. Following surgical intervention, her symptoms improved, highlighting the importance of recognizing virilizing symptoms as potential indicators of low-grade ovarian malignancies in similar cases.

This study found that a nutrition intervention was more effective than nutrition education or medication alone in reducing symptoms of PCOS, with significant improvements in body measurements and testosterone levels.

This study found that Iraqi male bodybuilders abusing anabolic androgenic steroids experienced significant changes in sex hormones, liver and kidney function, and lipid profiles compared to non-AAS-using controls.

This study found that older age at puberty may be associated with lower semen quality and altered reproductive hormone levels in young men, though only some results were statistically significant.

In this study, overweight women with polycystic ovarian syndrome who took evening primrose oil for 10 weeks experienced significant reductions in BMI, LDL, and total cholesterol levels, alongside hormonal changes such as decreased LH, FSH, and testosterone levels, and increased estrogen.

This study found that reduced plasma DIAPH1 levels were associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, suggesting DIAPH1 as a potential predictive factor for the condition.

This study found that female pattern hair loss is the most common type of diffuse hair loss in women, with significant associations observed between chronic telogen effluvium, low iron levels, and high total iron-binding capacity.

This study found no difference in lipid levels between men with and without androgenetic alopecia, suggesting the increased heart disease risk associated with this condition does not solely depend on cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

Taking 1mg finasteride tablets for 6 months can lower good cholesterol (HDL) and raise triglycerides in men with hair loss.

This study found that combining low-dose spironolactone with metformin provided greater clinical benefits and improved treatment compliance in women with PCOS compared to either drug alone.

In this study, acne and hirsutism in women were associated with a higher prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome compared to those without these conditions.

This study found that among different subtypes of PCOS based on Rotterdam criteria, group A showed higher androgen levels and hirsutism, while all subtypes had increased LH and LH/FSH compared to controls.

In this study, cyproterone acetate was found to be effective in treating 'idiopathic' hirsutism, while a combination of ethinyloestradiol and lynoestrenol reduced hair growth in fewer patients despite uniformly lowering testosterone levels.

This study evaluated the hair growth potential of a microbial biotransformed extract of tobacco leaves in male albino wistar rats, but no new results are provided in the abstract.

This study concluded that the modified Ferriman-Gallwey score was more effective in detecting hyperandrogenism in PCOS patients compared to serum testosterone and free androgen index in Sri Lankan women.

This study found that improved testosterone measurement using LC-MS/MS in women with PCOS revealed a stronger correlation between hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance than previously detected.

This article discusses PCOS in adolescents and highlights the importance of early diagnosis and treatment to prevent long-term health complications, noting increasing adolescent obesity may worsen symptoms.

In this study, the authors reported that depression and anxiety are more prevalent in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome compared to healthy women, reinforcing the need for routine mental health screening in this population.

This review analyzes 873 cases of female hyperandrogenism, primarily attributing it to polycystic ovarian syndrome, and explores sample testing for suspected neoplasms but reports no new clinical findings.

In this study from a south Indian hospital, idiopathic hirsutism was the most common cause of hirsutism, with a significant portion of affected women also displaying features of metabolic syndrome.

This study described four adult male cases of Kennedy disease with typical neurological symptoms and noted gynecomastia as the most frequent endocrinological manifestation, accompanied by an abnormal expansion in the androgen receptor gene.

This study found that spironolactone significantly reduced hirsutism scores in women with idiopathic hirsutism compared to finasteride and cyproterone acetate but showed no significant difference among women with PCOS compared to flutamide and finasteride, and it was well tolerated overall.

This study found that both finasteride and a regimen of cyproterone acetate plus ethinyl estradiol effectively reduced hirsutism in women, with similar results despite differing hormonal effects.

This case report describes a 57-year-old woman with hirsutism, hair loss, and vocal changes, who was found to have elevated testosterone levels but normal dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate levels.

This study found that free testosterone levels were a more sensitive indicator of hyperandrogenism in women with acne than total testosterone levels.

In this study, DHT and calculated free DHT were linked to higher risks of incident cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality in elderly men, while total testosterone and calculated free testosterone showed no such associations.

In this study, the NADES extract of mangkokan leaves (Polyscias scutellaria) demonstrated antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, with a total flavonoid content measured at 4.944 mgEQ/gSimplisia using the disc diffusion method.
