    Prostate levels of androgens/DHT drastically lower in prostate cancer patients

    Yet another study, which raises serious doubts about the so-called "androgen hypothesis" of prostate cancer (PC). The study found that androgen levels, and especially DHT, are drastically (90%+) lower in PC than in people with benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). In fact, 1/3 of the PC patients...

    DHT may treat thyroid cancer

    Yet another "non-endocrine" tumor turns out to be anything but. Thyroid cancer rates have been rising for the last 30 years and parallel the increase in diagnoses of its likely precursor - i.e. the "autoimmune" disorder Hashimoto Disease. While there is solid evidence implicating endocrine...

    DHT as anti-inflammatory as cortisol, but without the side effects

    As most of my readers know, glucocorticoids (synthetic or bioidentical) are widely used clinically and there is hardly a chronic conditions for which they are not prescribed even if only for managing brief "acute exacerbations".

    DHT can stop aging of the pancreatic beta-cells (insulin-producing)

    Another great study, which demonstrates that far from being a "villain" (in both males and females) DHT is in fact a crucial and positive factor in health. In this specific study below, it was demonstrated that DHT dose-dependently inhibited the aging/dysfunction of the pancreatic beta-cells...

    Scoliosis (even in females) may be driven by low androgen levels, DHT may treat it

    I am posting about this condition as it seems recently its numbers have absolutely exploded in the general population. Scoliosis used to be a relatively uncommon condition, usually present in adults over the age of 50. Mainstream medicine has no explanation for its possible causes, but suspects...

    Why DHT doesn’t cause hair loss - My response to Kevin Mann

    Kevin Mann attacked me in one of his vids a while ago, saying that DHT is a trash hormone and that I don't know what I'm talking about. He clearly believes that DHT is harmful and that finasteride is awesome, despite a ton of scientific papers and anecdotes showing that DHT is very much needed...

    5α-reductase type 2 (SRD5α2)

    Im hoping this thread can be a place to discuss this enzyme, it seems we haven’t discussed it much on here, most of the research is about inhibition, I’m curious as to how we can increase it more specifically. It converts testosterone to DHT, we have always focused on 5AR in general, we have 3...

    Stress ups cortisol/estrogen/prolactin, drops DHT, causes male infertility and prostate issues

    DHT, not T, likely the "active" androgen in heart and brain

    Interesting study, done on baboons (so should have good relevance for humans), demonstrating that the cardiovascular system (CVS) exclusively accumulates and recognizes (at the receptor level) DHT, instead of testosterone (T). In fact, the androgen receptor in CVS is so structurally different it...
