Testosterone is not just about masculinity — it can also have some downsides. Let’s dive in:

🧬 Two Types of Testosterone. There’s regular testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Both have similar functions, but DHT is five times more potent. It affects hair growth: it promotes hair on the body but can cause hair loss on the head.

🚫 Too Much DHT Leads to Hair Loss. High levels of DHT can lead to hair growth problems and balding. Supplements like creatine increase DHT, and for those prone to alopecia, it may worsen hair quality.

If you have a bald dad, it’s better not to boost DHT artificially or take creatine.
