Finasteride and Nizoral shampoo with Ketoconazole are used for hair loss treatment. Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) is recommended over Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) for more accurate DHT testing.
community Dutasteride isn’t working confirmed by test.
Dutasteride isn't effectively reducing DHT levels, prompting a switch back to finasteride. The user questions the reliability of their DHT test results due to hair loss concerns.
community DHT levels went up after 6 months of finasteride usage.
Finasteride's effectiveness may be reduced due to heat exposure, affecting DHT levels. Testing methods and medication storage conditions are likely factors in the unchanged DHT levels.
community 13 Years Finasteride, Switched to Dutasteride - 25% increase in Total Testosterone (expected) but 150% increase in Free Testosterone?
After switching from finasteride to dutasteride, the user experienced a 25% increase in total testosterone and a 150% increase in free testosterone, with side effects like brain fog and nipple tingling. The user plans to consult a lab for accuracy and adjust the dutasteride dosage to manage side effects.
community What Determines Sulfotransferase Enzyme Levels In The Body?
Some people have low sulfotransferase enzyme levels, affecting their response to minoxidil. Lifestyle factors, genetics, and diet, like MSM intake, might influence these enzyme levels.

1 / 801 results- Want to stop hormonal hair loss without touching your hormone levels? Procapil could block the enzyme doing the damage. Procapil's supplier describes it as inhibiting 5-alpha reductase at the scalp without changing hormone levels, but the published support is cell and animal work plus one small human study of a caffeine-plus-Procapil formula. It is a cosmetic ingredient, not an approved hair-loss treatment, and no trial has compared it with finasteride or minoxidil.
