Dutasteride, fesoterodine, and finasteride help older patients with urinary issues.

This report describes a rare case of porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus in a 64-year-old woman, successfully treated with CO₂ laser, highlighting its potential occurrence in older adults.

This study found several microRNA-related genetic variants linked to epithelial ovarian cancer risk, with a notable association at the 17q21.31 region, suggesting potential new susceptibility genes.

This study suggests revising PCOS diagnostic criteria to integrate the polymenorrhoea subcategory due to shared metabolic dysfunctions with oligomenorrhoea.

This study found that deslorelin implants can effectively reduce estradiol levels and support hair regrowth in neutered ferrets with hyperoestrogenism caused by nodular hyperplasia of the adrenocortex.

In this case report, a 55-year-old postmenopausal woman was diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis as the cause of her hyperandrogenism after detailed hormonal and imaging investigations, which was successfully treated with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, leading to symptom improvement and normalized testosterone levels.

In this case report, a 62-year-old woman with hyperandrogenism and polycythemia was diagnosed with a rare ovarian steroid cell tumor, highlighting the importance of considering such tumors in similar presentations; surgical removal led to symptom and lab normalization.

This review explores the potential of topical minoxidil as a treatment for erectile dysfunction, indicating that while a mild erectile response was observed, evidence remains insufficient for confirmation.

This study reviews prior research using transgenic K6/ODC mice and demonstrates that elevated polyamines in epithelial cells contribute significantly to skin tumor development and progression by stimulating proliferation, altering cell signaling and chromatin remodeling, and affecting immune functionality, amongst other mechanisms.

This case study describes two postmenopausal women with severe androgen excess symptoms, diagnosed with ovarian hyperthecosis and stromal hyperplasia, emphasizing the challenges in differentiating these benign conditions from androgen-secreting tumors and the importance of surgical and histopathological evaluation for correct diagnosis and management.

Combination therapy for BPH is cost-effective, especially for men with larger prostates.

This study observed that improving male lower urinary tract symptoms was associated with a lower risk of death, with a 1-point improvement in symptoms leading to a 4% reduction in mortality risk.

This case study reported a 68-year-old woman with postmenopausal virilization due to a rare Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor, where her symptoms and elevated testosterone levels only normalized post-surgery, underscoring the importance of thorough evaluation in such cases to improve diagnosis and treatment.

This case report details a diagnostic challenge in a postmenopausal woman with severe hyperandrogenism where distinguishing between adrenal and ovarian causes was complicated by elevated 17-OH Progesterone and asymmetric ovarian enlargement; pending surgical pathology is expected to guide further management.

This study suggests 5α‐androstan‐3α‐17β‐diol may be the true inducer of kidney enzymes in certain mice, while its induction mechanism likely involves pinocytosis rather than a receptor protein.

This review focuses on recent advancements in understanding and treating ischemic and nonischemic priapism, but does not present new clinical results.

This study found that elevated epidermal ODC activity in transgenic mice promotes skin tumor development by recruiting bulge stem cells, rather than through reactive oxygen species generation by polyamine catabolic oxidases.

Using buccal mucosa for hypospadias repair in children is effective and reduces complications.

In this study from Bangladesh Medical University, researchers found strong correlations between symptoms such as oligomenorrhea and amenorrhea with bilateral polycystic ovarian morphology in women with PCOS, highlighting the link between clinical symptoms and ultrasound findings in predicting the severity of the condition.

This study concluded that medieval Āyurvēda's treatment of Indralupta aligns with modern understanding of androgenic alopecia, emphasizing the historical scientific basis of Āyurvēda.

This study found that olive and olive oil may significantly reduce cardiovascular disease risk, cholesterol, and blood pressure, while offering antioxidant protection through bioactive metabolites like oleuropein.

In this study, testosterone was reported to increase aquaporin levels and water reabsorption in the kidneys of male rats, potentially leading to higher blood pressure, with effects mitigated by flutamide and finasteride.

This case report presents a 60-year-old woman with virilization and elevated adrenal androgens, where a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy confirmed ovarian steroid cell tumor NOS, and her symptoms resolved post-operatively.

This review discusses the potential of combined therapy with WP 631 and epothilone B for ovarian cancer, but reports no new clinical results.

This study found that suppressing allopregnanolone production in late gestation fetal sheep altered CNS activity and behavioral responses to transient asphyxia, effects mitigated by an analog co-infusion.
