Genetics and hormones cause hair loss; finasteride treats it safely.
research Effects of the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride on Serum Levels of Gonadal, Adrenal, and Hypophyseal Hormones and Its Clinical Significance: A Prospective Clinical Study
Finasteride reduces hair loss and treats BPH without major hormone changes, but may cause sexual dysfunction.
research Androgen Conjugates: Physiology and Clinical Significance
Androgen conjugates might be better indicators of skin sensitivity to hormones in women with excessive hair growth.
research Inhibitors of 5α-Reductase in the Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
5α-reductase inhibitors and alpha-1 adrenergic antagonists together effectively treat benign prostatic hyperplasia, with long-term benefits.
research Biochemical Roles of Testosterone and Epitestosterone to 5α-Reductase as Indicators of Male-Pattern Baldness
High testosterone to epitestosterone ratio in hair could predict male-pattern baldness.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in the Human Hair Follicle Concentrates in the Dermal Papilla
The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.
research Animal Models of Androgen-Dependent Disorders of the Pilosebaceous Apparatus
Testosterone causes hair loss in AGA mice, which are good for testing baldness treatments, and both minoxidil and cyproterone acetate can prevent this hair loss.
research Androgens in Women: Hormone-Modulating Therapies for Androgen-Mediated Cutaneous Disorders
