In some men, the increasing DHT (dihydrotestosterone) levels associated with aging can trigger hair loss. By the time a man has reached aged 40, he has an estimated 40 percent chance of experiencing male pattern baldness. This risk increases with age.
Hair loss can also be triggered by testosterone use and some testosterone products, since DHT levels typically increase when testosterone does (see Testosterone, Dihydrotestosterone and Estradiol: What’s the Conncection?). The body converts some testosterone into DHT with an enzyme called 5-alpha reductase.
Clinical study shows that MyTosterone decreases DHT by 20% at a dose of 800 mg/day dose.
