DHT Blockers & How They Prevent Hair Loss

Описание: DHT blockers are the most effective hair loss treatment. Testosterone converts to DHT with the help of 5α-reductase (pronounced 5-alpha-reductase), an enzyme that is held in the oil glands of a hair follicle. If you’re genetically prone to male pattern baldness, DHT binds to receptors in your hair follicles, causing the follicle to miniaturize (which basically means shrink) and, eventually, to stop new growth altogether.

While you can go down an internet rabbit hole and read about all kinds of “DHT blockers,” there’s only one that’s proven to work. And that one is finasteride. Finasteride is a prescription tablet that effectively blocks DHT and stops further hair loss, including receding hairlines. It works by binding to the 5α-Reductase enzyme, effectively inhibiting your body from producing DHT in the first place.
