GlossaryAndrostanediol Glucuronide

metabolite of dihydrotestosterone linked to hair loss and hirsutism

Androstanediol Glucuronide (3α-Diol G) is a metabolite of dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a potent androgen hormone. It is often measured in clinical settings to assess androgen activity in the body, as elevated levels can be associated with conditions like androgenic alopecia (hair loss) and hirsutism (excessive hair growth).
