5α-Reductase inhibitors do not consistently increase testosterone levels in the blood.
research Associations between sun sensitive pigmentary genes and serum prostate specific antigen levels
Men with less sun-sensitive skin have lower PSA levels, while men with more sun-sensitive skin have higher PSA levels.
research 174 Changes in urine androgen and PG levels during finasteride treatment
Finasteride treatment lowers urine androgen and prostaglandin levels, making them potential markers for effectiveness.
research Association between degrees of alopecia and prostate specific antigen level in men with androgenetic alopecia
No link found between hair loss severity and PSA levels in men.
research Relation of urinary stone disease with androgenetic alopecia and serum testosterone levels
Balding and low testosterone increase risk of urinary stones.
research Evaluation of serum G protein-coupled estrogen receptor 1 (GPER-1) levels in patients with androgenetic alopecia
Alopecia patients have less GPER-1, which might affect hair loss.
research Finasteride, not tamsulosin, increases severity of erectile dysfunction and decreases testosterone levels in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia
Finasteride worsens erectile dysfunction and lowers testosterone in men with enlarged prostates, unlike tamsulosin.
research Studies on the Disposition of Finasteride. (I). Absorption, Distribution and Excretion of (14C)finasteride after Single Oral or Intravenous Administration in Rats.
Finasteride has different absorption and metabolism in male and female rats, with higher concentrations in certain organs and mostly excreted through feces.
research Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Finasteride
Finasteride helps regrow hair and shrink prostate by reducing DHT, with some sexual side effects.
research The effect of St. John’s wort on the pharmacokinetics, metabolism and biliary excretion of finasteride and its metabolites in healthy men
St. John's wort increases finasteride metabolism, reducing its effectiveness; use caution when combining them.
research Acne: Hormonal concepts and therapy
Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.
research Physiology and Medical Treatments for Alopecia

research Novel inhibitors of 5α-reductase
New research is needed to create better drugs that block the enzyme responsible for conditions like male baldness and prostate enlargement.
research FINASTERIDE INHIBITS 5?-REDUCTASE ACTIVITY IN HUMAN DERMAL FIBROBLASTS: PREDICTION OF ITS THERAPEUTIC APPLICATION IN ANDROGEN-RELATED SKIN DISEASES
Finasteride helps treat skin issues like acne and baldness by blocking testosterone conversion.
research A New Look at the 5?-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and hair loss, but may cause side effects in some patients.
research Testosterone, Dihydrotestosterone, and Incident Cardiovascular Disease and Mortality in the Cardiovascular Health Study
