research Sperm Aneuploidy in Infertile Male Patients: A Systematic Review of the Literature
Infertile men are more likely to produce sperm with abnormal chromosome numbers, which can affect pregnancy success and embryo health.
research Sex-Limited Chromosomes And Non-Reproductive Traits
The document discussed how sex-limited chromosomes, like the Y chromosome, influenced non-reproductive traits in various sex determination systems (XY, ZW, UV). Traditionally associated with sex determination and reproduction, these chromosomes were found to also impact traits unrelated to reproduction. The study explored evolutionary processes that maintained variation in these chromosomes and the molecular mechanisms through which they affected non-reproductive traits.
research Acromegaloidism With Normal Growth Hormone Secretion Associated With X-Tetrasomy
A woman with acromegaloidism and normal growth hormone levels had a rare X-Tetrasomy, suggesting a need to study X-chromosome genes for their role in growth and facial development.
research Genetic Defects of Female Sexual Differentiation
Genetic mutations can affect female sexual development, requiring personalized medical care.
research Abstracts from the ASA 40th Annual Meeting

The conversation discusses how Caucasian men are more likely to experience hair loss due to genetic predisposition, with factors like the androgen receptor on the X chromosome playing a significant role. The user also expresses confusion about the evolutionary reasons for hair loss, especially in colder climates where it would seem beneficial to retain hair for warmth.
community IVF process on Finasteride and effects of stopping finasteride.
Concerns about finasteride affecting sperm quality and embryo abnormalities during IVF. The user plans to stop finasteride for 6 months and use minoxidil, microneedling, a red light cap, and saw palmetto shampoo to manage hair loss.
community Female, 30, PCOS diagnosis, MPB Norwood 2. Endo refuses to give anything other than Spironolactone. Feel like I’m at my wit’s end here.
A 30-year-old female with PCOS and male pattern baldness is frustrated with her endocrinologist's recommendation of only Spironolactone and minoxidil, feeling that dutasteride, finasteride, and progesterone would be more effective. Other users suggest various online sources for treatments, warn against self-medicating due to potential risks, and recommend seeking a specialized endocrinologist or considering additional treatments like Inositol, Berberine, and dermaneedling.
community Why do we have head hair in first place if we evolved to start losing it in some cases as soon as puberty hits
Hair loss is influenced by genetics and sensitivity to hormones like DHT. Treatments like Minoxidil and finasteride are commonly used, and baldness persists as it doesn't affect reproductive success.
community What the hell happened in my family genes?
A user is frustrated about early balding despite older male relatives retaining hair into old age. Another user plans to start finasteride soon to address their hair thinning.
