research In Vivo Time-Dependent Inhibition of Human Steroid 5a-Reductase by Finasteride
Finasteride poorly inhibits type 1 5AR, affecting its effectiveness.
research Cloning, computational analysis and expression profiling of steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 (SRD5A1) gene during reproductive phases and ovatide stimulation in endangered catfish, Clarias magur
The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research Rat steroid 5α-reductase kinetic characteristics: Extreme pH-dependency of the type II isozyme in prostate and epididymis homogenates
The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.

5 / 833 resultscommunity Did anybody use beta sisterol for hair loss? I saw in many articles in the internet that said that beta sisterol blocks dht by inhibiting 5a reductase type 2 enzyme and some reviews of people who said that it worked better than saw palmetto in terms of stoping hair loss and helping prostate.
Beta-sitosterol may inhibit 5-alpha reductase type 2 enzyme, potentially reducing DHT levels and promoting hair growth, similar to finasteride but possibly with fewer side effects. Its effectiveness and side effects compared to other treatments like saw palmetto and finasteride remain uncertain due to limited research.
community 28M experiencing thinning - first timer here, please help
A 28-year-old male experiencing hair thinning is considering minoxidil and finasteride. Minoxidil helps regrow hair, while finasteride prevents further loss; both are usually lifelong treatments.
community 2.5 years Minoxidil and HRT, CPA->Lupron +Minox 5%
The user experienced significant hair regrowth after 2.5 years of using Minoxidil 5% and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) with Lupron, despite initial scalp irritation. Finasteride was ineffective for them.
community Finasteride does deplete important nuero-active steroids
Finasteride can reduce neuroactive steroids, causing side effects like depression, anxiety, and sexual dysfunction. Some users experience persistent symptoms after stopping finasteride, while others use alternative treatments like topical solutions.
community Feeling the 2nd, perhaps 1st, Dutasteride shed, might shave, might thug it out.
The user is experiencing increased hair shedding after 6 months of using Dutasteride and oral minoxidil, despite previous regrowth and satisfaction with the results. They are considering shaving their head again and discuss the effectiveness of their treatment routine, which includes Dutasteride, oral minoxidil, and Nizoral, while also addressing concerns about side effects like erectile dysfunction and body composition changes.
