Many people are now aware that DHT is the leading cause
of hair loss and is responsible for hair loss in 95% of
the cases. Because of this information, more and more people
are searching for DHT blockers that are non-systemic, and
can block DHT at the scalp. There are different ways to
block DHT, which we will discuss below.
DHT is short for dihydrotestosterone which is formed
primarily in the prostate gland, testes, adrenal glands
and hair follicles. DHT
is formed mostly by the enzyme 5 a-reductase and is three
times more potent than testosterone.
DHT is responsible for other characteristics often largely
attributed to males like facial hair. The irony is that
while DHT is putting hair on the face, it’s also
taking hair off the scalp in many men, gradually thinning
hair, and over time, leading to significant overall
loss of hair. This has lead many men to take synthetic
drugs in the form of DHT Blockers.
Finasteride is one of those drugs and has been marketed
and sold as an actual DHT blocker. Approved initially
to treat prostate enlargement, the drug was later approved
for male pattern hair loss. Finasteride only works at
inhibiting type II 5 a-reductase.
Dutasteride is another drug that has also been used to
treat enlarged prostate glands. Dutasteride has also been
found to be three times more potent than finasteride at
inhibiting type I 5 a-reductase and 100 times more potent
at treating type II 5 a-reductase. Dutasteride has not
been approved by the FDA to fight male
pattern hair loss.
Unlike synthetic drugs that block DHT throughout the
entire body, there is another treatment that combats DHT
naturally and on a more local level. Revivogen is a DHT
blocker that was created by Dr. Alex Khadavi in the late
90’s. Revivogen lowers the level of DHT in the scalp
by combining nature’s most powerful ingredients
that have been proven to block the activity of 5 a-reductase.
Revivogen works by inhibiting types I and types II 5 a-reductase.
It also blocks the androgen receptors in which the DHT
would normally use to attach itself to the hair follicle,
which makes it very effective as a DHT blocker. Because
Revivogen is an all natural and topical formula, there
are no systematic side effects.
DHT continues to be produced in the body throughout a
person’s life. If you using DHT blockers, you should
know that you have to continue on that treatment program
for as long as you want to treat your hair loss. Revivogen
allows you to cut back to 4 days a week after you’ve
started to see maximum benefits from using the treatment.
This usually takes up to a little over a year to accomplish.
Good luck and remember that to become an expert in hair
loss means becoming an expert on DHT. Keep educating yourself
and remember that knowledge is power.
