Plant-based compounds might be effective, low-side-effect treatments for prostate cancer by blocking a specific enzyme.
research Five-alpha-reductase Inhibitors for prostate cancer prevention.
5-alpha-reductase inhibitors can lower prostate cancer risk but may increase high-grade tumors and cause sexual side effects.
research Effects of Finasteride (MK-906), a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, on Circulating Androgens in Male Volunteers*
Finasteride safely lowers DHT levels without affecting testosterone.
research Impact of a Novel Dehydroepiandrosterone Derivative on the Metabolism of RWPE-1 and LNCaP Cell Lines

research Cross-species sensitivity to a novel androgen receptor agonist of potential environmental concern, spironolactone
Spironolactone harms fish reproduction and is more potent in fish than invertebrates, needing environmental monitoring.
research Why Odds Ratios Can Be Tricky Statistics
Odds Ratios can be misleading; it's better to also present risk and Relative Risks for clarity.
research The Development of BL 7660 as an Anti‐Acne Agent
BRL 7660, once studied for male contraception, showed promise as an acne treatment but was not developed further due to competing drugs.
