DHT blocker

DHT blockers are medications and supplements that block dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is a male sex hormone that can cause hair loss. 

 

DHT blockers can:

• Reduce DHT levels in the body
• Inhibit the effects of DHT at the scalp
• Accelerate hair growth
• Promote healthier hair
• Stop hair loss from continuing

Some examples of DHT blockers include:

• Prescription medications: Finasteride pills for men and spironolactone for women
• Natural DHT blockers: Pumpkin seed oil, stinging nettle, pygeum bark, green tea, and saw palmetto
