This literature review identified that phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors, such as Tadalafil, are highly effective in improving lower urinary tract symptoms associated with benign prostatic hyperplasia, while the efficacy of saw palmetto remains inconsistent.

Men using steroids or finasteride to look more attractive may harm their fertility and sexual function, creating a paradox where they seem fit but may be less able to reproduce.

This study found that taurine may have potential as an anti-alopecia agent, particularly against chemical stress-induced hair loss, and could be effective when used with other treatments like finasteride.

This study analyzed the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System and found distinct safety signals and adverse event patterns among α1-blockers, 5α-reductase inhibitors, and tadalafil used in treating benign prostatic hyperplasia, emphasizing known risks and identifying potential new ones that require further study.

This editorial comment reports no new clinical findings, instead discussing a study on the effectiveness of combination therapy with doxazosin and finasteride in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.

This review discusses the potential of Ziziphus species and its extracted oil as new therapeutic agents in drug development and highlights the need for further studies to fully exploit this species for human health benefits.

This review examines the placebo response in conditions such as allergies and weight loss, highlighting its significance in both conventional and alternative medicine randomized trials, without reporting any new results.

This review discusses how targeting TGF-β with specific inhibitors, including components from Traditional Chinese Medicine, may help reduce liver fibrosis by acting through various signaling pathways.

This article reviews the potential of combining antiandrogenic and antiestrogenic treatments for BPH, highlighting aromatase inhibitors, but presents no new clinical results; further research is needed.

This study found that LHE may prevent and reverse testosterone-induced prostatic hyperplasia, supporting the traditional use of Kigelia africana for some reproductive system disorders.

Finasteride effectively inhibits 5α reductase, while plant extracts like Permixon and Bazoton don't show significant results.

In this study, the researchers found that Astragalus sinicus extracts improved wound healing, reduced oxidative stress, and activated crucial signaling pathways in dermal papilla cells damaged by dihydrotestosterone, suggesting it may be a promising ingredient for hair loss treatment.

High doses of cyclosporine A increase testosterone conversion, possibly boosting hair growth.

In this study, researchers observed that Centratherum anthelminticum seed extract effectively reduced cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin resistance, and inflammatory markers, while normalizing hormone levels and oxidative stress markers in rodents with PCOS, suggesting potential benefits for managing the condition.

This study found that the phytosterols β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, and campesterol have low-to-negligible inhibitory activity against steroidal 5α-reductase type 2 compared to the synthetic inhibitor dutasteride, with β-sitosterol showing the highest activity among the tested phytosterols.

This study found that a hair lotion containing saw palmetto and 10% trichogen veg complex increased total hair count in male patients with androgenetic alopecia over four months, though observer assessments varied.

This study found that treatment with oral tofacitinib, alone or with other therapies, was associated with clinical improvement in most patients with recalcitrant lichen planopilaris.

In this study, the ethanol extract of Tridax procumbens leaves exhibited antimicrobial activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, with specific active compounds identified through GC-MS analysis that may contribute to its therapeutic potential.

This study investigated a novel treatment for androgenetic alopecia, combining nanotechnology with a substance called β-sitosterol and laser therapy, and found that this combination showed promise in promoting hair growth without causing irritation or cytotoxicity.

This study found that Physcion from Polygonum multiflorum may be an effective natural 5α-reductase inhibitor for treating androgenic alopecia by enhancing hair growth and improving follicle morphology in laboratory settings.

This case study suggests that the use of the dietary supplement Nutrafol may have led to drug-induced liver injury in a 26-year-old woman, as evidenced by increased liver enzymes and bilirubin levels which improved after stopping the supplement.

This study found that combined therapy with cetirizine and topical steroids stabilized inflammation in most patients with lichen planus pilaris, though one patient experienced cardiac arrhythmia.
