research Markers of Peripheral Androgen Action In Vivo and In Vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is crucial for conditions like male-pattern baldness and acne, and measuring a byproduct, androstanediol glucuronide, is a better way to assess DHT's effects than DHT blood levels.
research Rebalance of the Scalp Microbiota by a Multifunctional Ingredient
Dutasteride improved hair density and thickness in men not helped by finasteride, with minimal side effects.
