    GlossaryNonsteroidal Inhibitors

    compounds that block biological processes without using steroids

    Nonsteroidal inhibitors are compounds that block specific biological processes without using steroid structures. In the context of hair and alopecia, these inhibitors can target enzymes or pathways involved in hair loss, such as 5-alpha-reductase, which converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to hair thinning and loss.
