    I don't know much about this since hair loss isn't an issue for me at least not yet. From what I have read Azelaic Acid is an A5R inhibitor which is the enzyme responsible for converting Testosterone to DHT. I read that the problem with this is that it only seems to work for test but can actually exacerbate the problem with other AAS's. This was from reading people's posts and not drawn from any studies I read so take it with a grain a salt. If using Nandrolone Azelaic acid should not be used and the method suggested was topical spironolactone due to its localized anti androgen properties. I hope this helped some.
