- W2795707621 abstract "Genitourinary conditions in women increase in prevalence with age. Androgens are prerequisite hormones of estrogen biosynthesis, are produced in larger amounts than estrogens in women, and decrease throughout adulthood. However, research and treatment for genitourinary complaints have traditionally focused on estrogens to the exclusion of other potential hormonal influences.To summarize and evaluate the evidence that androgens are important for maintaining genitourinary health in women and that lack of androgenic activity can contribute to the development of symptoms of the genitourinary syndrome of menopause.The role of androgens in the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of genitourinary syndrome of menopause was discussed by an international and multidisciplinary panel during a consensus conference organized by the International Society for the Study of Women's Sexual Health. A subgroup further examined publications from the PubMed database, giving preference to clinical studies or to basic science studies in human tissues.Expert opinion evaluating trophic and functional effects of androgens, their differences from estrogenic effects, and regulation of androgen and estrogen receptor expression in female genitourinary tissues.Androgen receptors have been detected throughout the genitourinary system using immunohistochemical, western blot, ligand binding, and gene expression analyses. Lower circulating testosterone and estradiol concentrations and various genitourinary conditions have been associated with differential expression of androgen and estrogen receptors. Supplementation of androgen and/or estrogen in postmenopausal women (local administration) or in ovariectomized animals (systemic administration) induces tissue-specific responses that include changes in androgen and estrogen receptor expression, cell growth, mucin production, collagen turnover, increased perfusion, and neurotransmitter synthesis.Androgens contribute to the maintenance of genitourinary tissue structure and function. The effects of androgens can be distinct from those of estrogens or can complement estrogenic action. Androgen-mediated processes might be involved in the full or partial resolution of genitourinary syndrome of menopause symptoms in women. Traish AM, Vignozzi L, Simon JA, et al.
