ALT_DEFINITION
  • A substance that blocks an enzyme needed by the body to make dihydrotestosterone (a male sex hormone made from testosterone). Dihydrotestosterone can cause the prostate to grow. 5-alpha reductase inhibitors are used to shrink an enlarged prostate gland and to improve the flow of urine in a condition called benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). A 5-alpha reductase inhibitor is a type of enzyme inhibitor.NCI-GLOSS

DEFINITION
  • Any substance that inhibits steroid 5-alpha-reductase, an enzyme that converts testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Since DHT has three times greater affinity for androgen receptors than testosterone, inhibition of 5-alpha-reductase results in a strong reduction in the androgenic effects of testosterone.NCI
