So dutasteride is an oral medication that is sold under the brand name Avodart by the drug company GlaxoSmithKline
It was originally developed and is currently approved in the US and Europe for the treatment of a condition known as benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BHP. This is when the prostate enlarges, due to reasons that are not related to cancer.
Prostate enlargement is a very common condition with old age.
It’s estimated to affect close to half of men who are 50 years old, and over 90% of men by the time reach 80 years.
It’s not life threatening in and of itself, but has many unpleasant symptoms that can lower quality of life.
These include things like increased frequency of urination and difficulty starting or completing urination. There’s also some other less common symptoms like urinary tract infections or blood in the urine.
Now the molecule in the male body directly implicated in causing the prostate to enlarge is dihydrotestosterone, or DHT.
DHT is one of the 4 male hormones that make up the androgen family, the other 3 being testosterone, androstenedione and dehydroepiandrosterone.
Out of these 4 hormones, DHT is the strongest, with a potency in the male body about three times that of testosterone.
So when a male starts out his life as a fetus in the womb, he needs DHT to develop the male sex organs. Without DHT the male reproductive organs will not develop, so this is obviously a crucial hormone.
Shortly after birth, the production of DHT drops to undetectable levels.
But during puberty, DHT is once again critical for the development of the so-called secondary sex characteristics, like the bodily hair on the chest and other parts of the body, the deepening of the voice, as well as musculoskeletal changes and more.
