research Superiority of Dutasteride Over Finasteride in Hair Regrowth and Reversal of Miniaturization in Men With Androgenetic Alopecia: A Randomized Controlled Open-Label, Evaluator-Blinded Study
Dutasteride is more effective than finasteride at increasing hair count and reversing hair thinning in men with hair loss, but both have similar side effects.
research 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors and Combination Therapy
Finasteride and dutasteride are effective for long-term treatment of enlarged prostates but have sexual side effects and a risk of high-grade prostate cancer.
research Finasteride-Induced Depression: New Insights Into Possible Pathomechanisms
Finasteride may increase depression by reducing brain cell growth.

research Cloning, Expression, and Characterization of Rhesus Macaque Types 1 and 2 5alpha-Reductase: Evidence for Mechanism-Based Inhibition by Finasteride
Finasteride inhibits enzyme activity in rhesus macaques, suggesting they're useful for evaluating similar drugs.
research PNU 157706, A Novel Dual Type I and II 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
PNU 157706 is a more effective treatment than finasteride for conditions caused by DHT, like enlarged prostate and hair loss.
research Studies on the Effect of Betula Platyphylla Extract on Human Dermal Papilla Cell Proliferation and Its Mechanism of Action
Betula platyphylla extract, particularly the H3-2 fraction, may help treat hair loss by promoting cell growth and inhibiting a hair loss-related enzyme.
research Evaluation of 5α-Reductase Inhibitory Activity of Certain Herbs Useful as Antiandrogens
Some herbs show promise as antiandrogenic agents.
research Pharmacogenetic Analysis of Human Steroid 5α Reductase Type II: Comparison of Finasteride and Dutasteride
Dutasteride is more efficient than finasteride, but individual results vary.
research Bioactives in Chinese Proprietary Medicine Modulate 5α-Reductase Activity and Gene Expression Associated with Androgenetic Alopecia
Chinese medicine may help treat hair loss by affecting genes and enzyme activity.
research Human Type 3 5α-Reductase Is Expressed in Peripheral Tissues at Higher Levels Than Types 1 and 2 and Its Activity Is Potently Inhibited by Finasteride and Dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Determine the Effectiveness of Botanically Derived Inhibitors of 5-Alpha-Reductase in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Natural 5AR inhibitors effectively improve mild to moderate hair loss in men.
research AKR1D1 Regulates Glucocorticoid Availability and Glucocorticoid Receptor Activation in Human Hepatoma Cells
AKR1D1 controls glucocorticoid levels and receptor activity in liver cells.
research Key Targets of Hormonal Treatment of Prostate Cancer: The Androgen Receptor and 5α-Reductase
Blocking DHT production more strongly may help control advanced prostate cancer and improve quality of life.
research In Vivo and In Silico Evaluation of the Ameliorative Effect of Hesperidin on Finasteride-Induced Testicular Oxidative Stress in Wistar Rats
Hesperidin protects rat testicles from finasteride damage and improves sperm health.
research A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Determine the Effectiveness of Botanically Derived Inhibitors of 5-Alpha-Reductase in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Plant extracts effectively reduce hair loss and increase growth, offering a safe alternative treatment.
research In Vitro Main Pathways of Steroid Action in Cultured Hair Follicle Cells: Vascular Approach
Steroids, particularly estrogens and 5α-reductase inhibitors, affect blood vessel-related hair growth processes in hair follicle cells.
research Circulating and Intraprostatic Sex Steroid Hormonal Profiles in Relation to Male Pattern Baldness and Chest Hair Density Among Men Diagnosed with Localized Prostate Cancers
Baldness in men with prostate cancer is linked to higher levels of certain sex hormones, but chest hair density is not.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for Screening Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Expression of Type 1 5α-Reductase and Metabolism of Testosterone in Reconstructed Human Epidermis: A New Model for Screening Skin-Targeted Androgen Modulators
The study created a new method to test drugs that affect hormone processing in skin.
research Androgen Metabolism as It Affects Hair Growth in Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgens, like DHT, affect hair growth and treatments like finasteride may help.
research Alopecia: Unapproved Treatments or Indications
Many treatments for hair loss lack proper testing and FDA approval, so their effectiveness is uncertain.
