This document discusses inhibition of 5-alpha reductase as a way to treat male pattern baldness. It references two studies, one on saw palmetto and one on Curcuma aeruginosa, that found these botanical extracts to be effective 5-alpha reductase inhibitors for treating male pattern baldness. It also links to an online article about attacking DHT by inhibiting 5-alpha reductase.

Ketoconazole, also known as Nizoral, is a compound that has been found to
stimulate hair growth. It is commonly used as an anti-fungal agent and was initially developed to treat dandruff and psoriasis. Nizoral is a brand name of shampoo that contains ketoconazole. The treatment has demonstrated a high level of efficacy in promoting an increase in both hair count and hair thickness. One of the potential adverse outcomes is the manifestation of dryness, thinning, and brittleness in the hair. The mechanism of action of this substance is intriguing as it has the ability to impede certain fungal growth on the scalp. Ketoconazole functions as an antifungal agent that appears to enhance the sebum's ability to prevent other fungal infections. Consequently,
