FDX 78: Dihydrotestosterone
£85.00

FDX 78: Dihydrotestosterone

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a male sex hormone (androgen). Androgens are endogenous steroid hormones consisting of DHEA, Androstenedione, Testosterone and DHT. DHT is the most potent hormone amongst the androgens because it is not converted to estrogen, it is considered to be a pure androgen. It is created from testosterone via the action of the enzyme 5 alpha-reductase and is produced in the prostate gland, adrenal glands, liver, brain, and hair follicles. Its action is related to the tissue in which it is produced. It is a more potent hormone than testosterone (approx. 1% circulated feely as unbound), it has a slow dissociation (approx. 5x less than testosterone) and long half-life (2x affinity to the androgen receptors). During development and adult life in men, it promotes prostate growth, activity of the sebaceous glands, male pattern baldness and the development of characteristics that are typically associated with men (body hair, muscle growth, and a deep voice). In women DHT levels are associated with issues including hirsutism, amenorrhea, and increased acne.

FAQ's

Can using a contraceptive impact the results?

The hormone markers will be influenced by hormone contraception; therefore, we recommend testing 4-6 weeks after contraception discontinued. However, the test can be used to identify dysfunctions that can impact on fertility aside of sex hormone levels.

Can using HRT impact the results?

The hormone markers will be influenced by HRT medications. However, the test can be used to identify dysfunctions that can impact on ageing aside of sex hormone levels.
