research Dutasteride
Dutasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate, reduces prostate cancer risk, and promotes hair regrowth with few side effects.
research Ursolic acid reduces prostate size and dihydrotestosterone level in a rat model of benign prostatic hyperplasia
Ursolic acid can shrink the prostate and lower a hormone linked to prostate growth in rats.
research Efficacy of Topical Combination of 0.25% Finasteride and 3% Minoxidil Versus 3% Minoxidil Solution in Female Pattern Hair Loss: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Controlled Study
Combination of 0.25% finasteride and 3% minoxidil works better than just 3% minoxidil for increasing hair thickness in women.
research Corn silk extract improves benign prostatic hyperplasia in experimental rat model
Corn silk extract helps reduce prostate enlargement symptoms.
research Comparison of clinical trials with finasteride and dutasteride.
Dutasteride reduces DHT more than finasteride, but both drugs improve BPH symptoms similarly.
research Saturable Binding of Finasteride to Steroid 5α-reductase as Determinant of Nonlinear Pharmacokinetics
Finasteride's effect on hair loss and prostate enlargement depends on its binding to an enzyme, with maximum impact at 0.2 mg dose.
research Oral Testosterone With and Without Concomitant Inhibition of 5α-Reductase by Dutasteride in Hypogonadal Men for 28 Days
Taking oral testosterone with or without dutasteride increases testosterone levels and could be an effective treatment for low testosterone.
research A herbal formula, comprising Panax ginseng and bee-pollen, inhibits development of testosterone-induced benign prostatic hyperplasia in male Wistar rats

research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research Administration of Caesalpinia bonduc Seed Extracts Ameliorates Testosterone-Induced Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) in Male Wistar Rats
Caesalpinia bonduc seed extracts may help treat enlarged prostate in rats.
research Dihydroartemisinin attenuates benign prostatic hyperplasia in rats by inhibiting prostatic epithelial cell proliferation
Dihydroartemisinin helps reduce prostate enlargement in rats by stopping the growth of prostate cells.
research Is Dihydrotestosterone a Classic Hormone?
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) mainly affects nearby cells, doesn't significantly change prostate hormonal environment or cancer risk, and doesn't play a main role in causing hair loss or acne. More research is needed on its effects on heart health, sexual function, and bone health.
research Moxibustion improves ovarian function based on the regulation of the androgen balance
Moxibustion may help improve ovarian function by changing androgen levels.
research The unseen Impact of an observable disease: Association of dihydrotestosterone levels and psychosocial impact in androgenetic alopecia: An analytical cross-sectional study
Androgenetic alopecia in males is linked to significant psychological distress, highlighting the need for both mental and dermatological care.
research Design of Liposome Formulations for CRISPR/Cas9 Enzyme Immobilization: Evaluation of 5-Alpha-Reductase Enzyme Knockout for Androgenic Disorders
New liposome treatment successfully delivers CRISPR to deactivate a key enzyme in androgen-related disorders.
research Evaluating 5 alpha reductase inhibitors for the treatment of male androgenic alopecia
Finasteride and dutasteride are effective in treating male hair loss but can cause sexual side effects and birth defects.
