    GlossarySteroidal Antiandrogens

    block male hormone effects to treat hair loss

    Steroidal antiandrogens are a class of medications that block the effects of androgens, which are male sex hormones like testosterone. They are used to treat conditions such as prostate cancer, androgenic alopecia (hair loss), and severe acne by reducing the influence of these hormones on the body. These drugs work by binding to androgen receptors, preventing androgens from exerting their effects.
