“Can anabolic steroids cause hair loss?”
My boyfriend takes anabolic steroids to help build his muscles, but I found an article that said that these steroids can cause hair loss. Is this true?

Yes, anabolic steroids have the potential to cause hair loss. Anabolic steroids accelerate the production of the hormone DHT, which is the primary hormone involved in male pattern baldness. Propecia decreases scalp and serum DHT thus preventing male-pattern balding. Therefore, he can discuss that option with his doctor.
