[QUOTE="madman, post: 129146, member: 13851"] As far as mpb (male pattern baldness) it is genetic and even though dht plays a role it comes down to the sensitivity of ones AR (androgen receptor) to dht/among other factors as genetically prone men can still experience hair loss/thinning even with normal dht levels. Regarding oily skin/acne ones genetics also plays a strong role as some men with higher levels of testosterone still have blemish free skin. Testosterones metabolite dht is responsible for increasing the size of the sebaceous glands and the increased production of sebum (oil) which can result in acne (white heads, black heads, papules/pustules, cysts) but to what degree one experiences these side effects comes down to genetics and how one reacts to androgens. Testosterones other metabolite estradiol also plays a role regarding inflammation/acne. Higher doses of testosterone resulting in excess dht or estradiol can cause side effects but again it comes down to genetics/sensitivity of ones AR. [/QUOTE]
