This review evaluates pharmacologic treatments for female sexual dysfunction (FSD), focusing on hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD). We provide clinically relevant applications for Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved medications (flibanserin and bremelanotide) and investigational therapies (Lorexys and testosterone combinations). Detailed study outcomes, safety profiles, and clinical strategies guide clinicians in appropriate diagnosis, patient selection, expectation setting, side effect management, and patient education, improving treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction.

The twin testosterone transfer (TTT) hypothesis posits that females with male co-twins (opposite-sex, OS) might develop male-typical traits due to higher prenatal testosterone exposure. This study explored whether females of OS have lower 2D:4D digit ratios and higher testosterone levels compared to females of same-sex (SS) twin pairs. Conducted in Tamale from January to December 2022, the study included 40 participants aged 18-27 years: 10 males of OS, 10 females of OS, and 20 females of SS twin pairs.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs), including electroacupuncture, exercise, diet, and lifestyle changes, in reducing androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) through a systematic review and network meta-analysis.
Methods: Comprehensive searches were conducted in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wanfang up to June 2024. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing NPIs with other NPIs or placebo treatments in adult women with PCOS were included.

Background: The oxidative handicap hypothesis posits that testosterone-dependent traits, such as muscle mass and strength, may be costly to develop due to testosterone's pro-oxidative properties, leading to increased oxidative stress. This hypothesis suggests that only individuals with superior biological conditions can afford these costs. This study examines the oxidative handicap hypothesis, exploring the relationship between muscle mass or handgrip strength and oxidative stress markers in men.
