5 alpha-reductase inhibitors block the transformation of the male hormone testosterone in his active form in the prostate gland (DHT). The enlargement of the prostate in BPH is directly depending on DHT, so that these drugs lead to approx. 25% of reduction with prostate gland size from six to more than 12 months. That’s why improvement urinary tract symptoms mostly lasts so long to step. Examples of 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors belong Finasteride (Proscar) and dutasteride (Avodart).
