Abstract in brief

  • The study examines how free testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) levels, particularly their ratio, change across a man's lifespan and how these hormones influence androgen activity in areas like the prostate and skin.
  • Results from over 13,000 male patients show that the free DHT to free testosterone ratio is high in infancy, drops during puberty, and remains relatively stable from around age 20 until old age.
  • The findings highlight the importance of DHT in androgen functions, especially during the prepubertal period, with the ratio's stability suggesting a consistent role of DHT in adult men.]
