Dihydrotestosterone, or DHT, is a natural but powerful metabolite of the human body and the main cause of hair loss in both men and women. It’s a chemical derivative of testosterone, created when the metabolism of androgen gets involved with an enzyme called 5-alpha-reductase.

HOW DHT AFFECTS HAIR GROWTH
Dihydrotestosterone, or DHT, is a male sex hormone responsible for the development of primary male sex characteristics. This androgen is also linked to the masculinization of boys during puberty, stimulating a deepening of the voice, development of muscles and the growth of facial and body hair. Later in life, DHT can greatly affect the entire process of hair growth, leading to both male and female pattern baldness.
