Solid postYour remarks here indicate that you have a very limited understanding of the community's view on hormones... You should read more articles and listen to more podcasts to get a more complete view of hairloss and hormones.
High androgens can easily convert to excess estrogen which influences an increase in all stressful hormones. Especially in the context of a poor diet and poor metabolism. That is why exogenous testosterone has enarly all of its bad effects, especially cancer.
Finasteride works sometimes because it mimics progesterone but without many of the protective effects.
Higher dht can also cause hairloss in certain context of not being adequately supplied with nutrients. Elevated dht and testosterone can be stressful if the rest of the hormonal cascade is not in order and there is not enough glycogen and nutrients.
