Hairloss for men, and even more so for women, is certainly one of the nastiest side effects of either naturally or artificially induced hormonal disturbances. And while the vilification of DHT as the #1 inducer of male pattern baldness and a potential cause of female hair loss may be overblown, it is a well-established fact that (over-)expression of DHT, or rather a high / over-activity of the 5a-reductase enzyme which converts testosterone to the ~10x more potent androgen dihydrotestosterone will, over time, lead to a shrinkage and gradual disappearance of affected hair follicles .
