The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.

Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone treatments can help with penile growth in males with 5α-reductase type 2 deficiency, with dihydrotestosterone being more effective in infancy.

Inhibiting 5α-reductase can help reduce prostate cancer risk and improve treatment.

DHT affects bone growth by altering gene activity in osteoblasts, potentially complicating steroid use.

New treatments for male hypogonadism are effective and should be personalized.

Different skin cells process testosterone differently, and certain drugs can change this process, possibly helping treat acne and hair loss.

Minocycline may cause hair loss by increasing DHT levels, but finasteride can help counteract this effect.

Dermal Papilla cells are a promising tool for evaluating hair growth treatments.

Dihydrotestosterone increases growth and spread of human brain cancer cells, and blocking its formation might help treat this cancer.

MENT could be a better option than testosterone for male hormone therapy and birth control because it works well at lower doses and has fewer side effects on the prostate.

Eating alfalfa sprouts every day can raise testosterone levels in middle-aged men, but broccoli sprouts don't have this effect.

Muscles can make their own androgens, which may help muscle growth.

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.

Finasteride helps treat hair loss by blocking enzyme activity.

Researchers developed a new method to find substances in herbs that can block a specific enzyme linked to hair loss.

Early treatment of PCOS in teens is crucial to prevent long-term health issues like diabetes and heart disease.

Male hormones may play a role in the development of heart disease, and more research is needed to understand their effects.

Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.

MK-386 and finasteride together effectively reduce DHT levels, potentially treating acne and male pattern baldness.

New compounds may help treat prostate cancer by reducing cell growth.

The enzyme 5α-reductase type 1 is important for blood vessel development and fertility in the uterus.

Researchers developed a model to predict how well certain compounds can block an enzyme related to hair loss and prostate issues, suggesting a 50 mg dose of finasteride might be effective based on lab and body data.

Grateloupia elliptica extract may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.

Finasteride effectively treats male pattern hair loss with a 1 mg daily dose.

Dihydrotestosterone treatment can help penis growth in boys with 5α-reductase deficiency but doesn't fully normalize size after puberty.

Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.

Changing the C-ring structure in certain compounds can make them better at blocking a specific human enzyme.

Four-amino acid part makes enzyme sensitive to finasteride.

Dihydrotestosterone increases certain inflammatory signals in skin cells, potentially contributing to acne.

Hair loss, known as Androgenetic Alopecia, is often caused by hormones and can be diagnosed using noninvasive techniques. Treatments include topical minoxidil and oral finasteride, with new treatments being explored. There may also be a link between this type of hair loss and heart disease risk.
