    Glossary Antiandrogenic Effects

    inhibit male sex hormones like testosterone

    Antiandrogenic effects refer to the actions of substances that inhibit the effects of androgens, which are male sex hormones like testosterone. These substances can block androgen receptors or reduce androgen production, and are often used in treatments for conditions like prostate cancer, androgenic alopecia (male-pattern baldness), and hirsutism (excessive hair growth in women).
