The DHT (Dihydrotestosterone) test is a specialized blood test that measures the level of dihydrotestosterone, a potent androgen hormone derived from testosterone through the action of the enzyme 5-alpha-reductase, playing a crucial role in male sexual development, prostate growth, body hair patterns, and contributing to conditions such as male-pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia), benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), hirsutism in women, and acne. For residents of Delhi, this test is particularly valuable in diagnosing and evaluating androgen excess or deficiency conditions, male-pattern baldness, benign prostatic hyperplasia, hirsutism (excessive hair growth) in women, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), 5-alpha-reductase deficiency, delayed or precocious puberty, infertility, erectile dysfunction, decreased libido, and hormonal imbalances affecting skin and hair health, helping physicians identify the underlying causes of symptoms such as excessive hair loss, receding hairline, bald patches, excessive facial or body hair in women, severe acne, enlarged prostate, urinary symptoms, irregular periods, difficulty conceiving, or abnormal sexual development, and develop appropriate treatment strategies including 5-alpha-reductase inhibitors (such as finasteride or dutasteride), anti-androgen medications, hormonal therapy, lifestyle modifications, or further diagnostic evaluations for optimal reproductive health, hair and skin management, and overall wellness.With Seviyaar, Delhi residents can access NABL-certified laboratories that maintain strict quality standards for accurate diagnostic results.
