Finasteride may help improve certain brain function issues linked to dopamine.
research Dihydrotestosterone and 5α-Reductase
Dihydrotestosterone and 5α-Reductase play a role in hair loss and prostate health, and finasteride can increase hair growth in men without affecting sperm production, but it doesn't work for postmenopausal women with hair loss.
research A model for the turnover of dihydrotestosterone in the presence of the irreversible 5α-reductase inhibitors GI198745 and finasteride
Both drugs lower DHT levels, with GI198745 being more effective.
research Inhibition of 5α-reductase in the rat prostate by Cimicifuga racemosa
Cimicifuga racemosa extract may help prevent and treat prostate issues by inhibiting 5α-reductase.
research Characterization of follicular minoxidil sulfotransferase activity in a cohort of pattern hair loss patients from the Indian Subcontinent
