DHT

DHT blockers are the most scientifically-advanced products for the treatment of hair loss. By looking at the biological basis of hair loss, these products break up the natural cycle that leads to hair loss. While the process is fairly simple, the terms involved requires some explanation.

What is DHT?

DHT, or dihydrotestosterone, is a naturally occurring chemical that arises in the body as a by-product of testosterone. DHT is produced by the enzyme called 5-Alpha-Reductase. Once scientists pinpointed this enzyme as the cause, it was a simple matter of how to inhibit it in a safe, healthy way. ** Procerin blocks the DHT without reacting with testosterone, like some prescription medications.**

Procerin - DHT Blocker Product

Thanks to scientific breakthroughs, Procerin DHT blocker are now available. These products do just what they say--block the production of DHT, and thus save hair. By stopping the process before it can start, these blockers offer a solution based in science.

More DHT Information

It is now widely accepted that the main culprit in the hair loss of 95% of us is DHT . Therefore the principal aspect of the strategy to stop hair loss is to block dht.

Blocking DHT can be accomplished by:

• Keeping DHT from attaching to the receptors in the hair follicles.
• Reducing the production of DHT.
• Inhibiting the production of the enzyme 5 alpha reductase which converts testosterone into DHT.
• Reducing the substances that can produce the enzyme 5 alpha reductase like cholesterol.

Alopecia and DHT

The most widely accepted theory of what causes Androgenetic Alopecia is the DHT factor. DHT is produced when the enzyme 5 alpha reductase combines with testosterone. DHT then attaches it self to the hair follicle eventually causing it to stop producing hair. Apparently, the inherited genetic trait for hair loss, makes some hair follicles more susceptible to DHT.

In addition to this DHT factor there are other secondary factors that may also contribute to the hair loss. While they may not cause pattern baldness, they may affect how susceptible the hair follicle is to the effects of DHT. By being aware of these additional factors, we can increase our chances of preventing and halting hair loss through the blocking of DHT.
