Blocking the enzyme that turns testosterone into DHT can safely and effectively treat enlarged prostate.
research Treatment of hirsutism with the pure antiandrogen flutamide
Flutamide effectively reduced excessive hair growth and improved related symptoms in hirsutism patients without significant side effects.
research Parenteral and Oral Cyproterone Acetate Treatment in Severe Hirsutism
Cyproterone acetate implants were more effective at reducing facial hair and improving skin in severe hirsutism than oral treatment.
research Estimating the Contribution of the Prostate to Blood Dihydrotestosterone
The normal human prostate does not significantly affect blood DHT levels.
research The clinical management of testosterone replacement therapy in postmenopausal women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder: a review
Testosterone Replacement Therapy can improve sexual health in postmenopausal women with low sexual desire, but more research is needed on its long-term effects.
research Serum concentrations of dihydrotestosterone are associated with symptoms of hypogonadism in biochemically eugonadal men
Higher DHT levels are linked to fewer hypogonadism symptoms in men with normal testosterone levels.
