So, age related hairy-ness like hair on ears, shoulders and all the unwanted places should not be blamed on DHT ?They were treated with androsterone - 50mg - 150mg daily by injection. Not as shocking as treatment with DHT but still pretty close given that androsterone is also being blamed for hirsuitism. The study about reversing liver cirrhosis with testosterone and thiamine said the same thing - that DHT should be used in women instead of testosterone because (counterintuitively) DHT had a lot less virilizing effects on women than T did. So, it seems the virilizing effects need estrogen and strong non-aromatizable androgens like DHT and androsterone do not have as high risk virilization/hirsuitism.
