How to decrease DHT

[joebailey1271]

I'm actually starting to wonder if the conversion of Test to DHT is the reason that when I take the Test at 200mg, the level is only 1200 while most guys are above 1500.

Hair, I always have had crappy hair, been slowly going bald since I was 18. The prostate is normal, my PSA was 0.7.

Sorry ,I totally missed that you were on TRT. My Mistake. As far as lowering Dht,
there are several natural methods of blocking alpha 5 reductase.
Although on Trt,I doubt they will do much.
Its worth a shot though of incorporating all these foods .

coconut oil,
green teas,

Ranges for SHBG are bogus. Even if you fall our of range it isn't a condition in itself, though it can potentially signals other issues.

Do you have diabetes/insulin resistance? Low SHBG is associated with it.
