research Relationships Between Biochemical Markers of Hyperandrogenism and Metabolic Parameters in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
This meta-analysis confirmed associations between some androgenic and metabolic parameters in women with PCOS, suggesting that these measurements might help predict metabolic risk in this population.
research REPRODUCTIVE HORMONE LEVELS AND METABOLIC SYNDROME IN WOMEN WITH POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME IN SANA'A, YEMEN
This study found significant associations between polycystic ovary syndrome and increased serum levels of reproductive hormones, as well as connections to infertility, hirsutism, and metabolic syndrome in Yemeni women.
research Untargeted metabolomics analysis of plasma metabolic characteristics in patients with acne and insulin resistance
This study identified 18 significant metabolites and two enriched metabolic pathways, necroptosis and ABC transporters, in serum samples of acne patients with and without insulin resistance, potentially aiding in the clinical diagnosis and drug development for these patients.
research Male polycystic ovarian syndrome phenotype: a meta-analysis of endocrine-metabolic dysregulation in fathers and brothers of PCOS-affected women
This systematic review and meta-analysis found that male first-degree relatives of women with PCOS have increased rates of metabolic issues, hormonal imbalances, and androgenic features compared to controls, suggesting a male equivalent of PCOS.

5 / 240 resultscommunity Physio-metabolic method of treating androgenic alopecia. Cold receptors. The relationship between DHT, cold receptors, minoxidil and antiandrogens.
A method for treating androgenic alopecia using minoxidil, antiandrogens, exercise, and cold exposure to promote hair growth. Environmental factors and lifestyle changes, like diet and exercise, can improve treatment effectiveness.
community Oral Minoxidil - The Hyper-Responder Concept
Minoxidil's effectiveness varies due to genetic differences in the SULT1A1 enzyme, affecting how well it converts to its active form, minoxidil sulfate. Hyper-responders may experience rapid hair growth and increased side effects, such as pericardial effusion, even at low doses.
community Oral Minoxidil and Grapefruit Juice
The conversation is about the potential dangers of taking oral minoxidil and grapefruit juice together. Some users express concern about dangerous drug interactions, while others argue that grapefruit juice may inhibit the metabolism of finasteride. The conclusion is that grapefruit juice may make finasteride less effective, but it won't affect minoxidil.
community How is it possible for someone to be a non responder to ORAL minoxidil?
Some individuals do not respond to oral minoxidil for hair loss, despite it generally working by improving blood flow to hair follicles. Factors like metabolism, drug interactions, and individual variations in the drug's activation may influence its effectiveness.
community Increasing activity of the sult1a1 enzyme via alkalizing agent and tretinoin for better response to topical minoxidil
Increasing the sult1a1 enzyme on the scalp may improve response to topical minoxidil. The user suggests using a baking soda solution, DMSO, and tretinoin to enhance enzyme activity and minoxidil effectiveness.
