General information about Dutahair in USA
Dutasteride (Avodart) is an androgen blocker drug. Dutasteride is primarily used as a treatment for male pattern baldness and enlarged prostate. Dutasteride is not commonly used in the treatment of acne.
Dutasteride is generally available in oral formulations, but topical Dutasteride may be better suited for use as an acne treatment. Dutasteride is readily absorbed into the skin, and topically applied Dutasteride should have significantly fewer side effects than oral Dutasteride. Dutasteride topical solutions may be available in some areas.
Characteristics Dutahair in USA
Dutasteride inhibits the synthesis of the potent androgen (male hormone), DHT. DHT is closely related to testosterone, but is more potent. Inhibiting the effects of androgen hormones can help improve acne symptoms in some individuals by slowing the growth of sebaceous glands. In individuals with androgenic acne, high levels of androgen hormones cause increased sebaceous gland activity, which leads to high sebum production, clogged pores, and excessive growth of acne-causing acne bacteria in the follicles.
Dutasteride works by blocking the activity of an enzyme called 5-aplha reductase, which converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). There are two different versions of the 5-alpha reductase enzyme in humans. Finasteride is an androgen blocker that is closely related to Dutasteride.Dutasteride is a more potent inhibitor of DHT synthesis than finasteride because it inhibits both forms of the enzyme, while finasteride only inhibits one.
Androgen hormones are an essential part of male biology. Because androgen blockers have significant side effects when used in men, they are generally only used to treat acne in women. However, Dutasteride is one of the few androgen blockers that is usually used in men. Two of the most common side effects of Androgen Inhbitor use in men are reduced sexual desire and decreased muscle mass.
