The tone varies from straightforward to contentious, highlighting nuanced engagement with the article’s implications.

AgreementModerate agreement

Most discussions recognize the study's findings and some debates question its methodology or significance, indicating general support but some skepticism.

InterestHigh interest

There is high interest shown by individuals referencing multiple studies, discussing implications like hair loss, and sharing examples, demonstrating active engagement.

EngagementModerate engagement

Posts go beyond simple reactions, with users referencing specific research, critiquing methodologies, and sharing personal interpretations, reflecting moderate-depth interactions.

ImpactModerate impact

The discussions influence perceptions about creatine safety and hormonal effects, especially concerning hair loss concerns, indicating some level of impact.

Abstract in brief

  • This study looked at how three weeks of creatine monohydrate use affects levels of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in college rugby players, finding that DHT increased significantly while testosterone stayed the same.
  • Creatine supplementation raised the DHT to testosterone ratio, mainly by increasing DHT levels, which suggests it might influence hormone conversion processes.
  • The findings highlight the need for further research into long-term effects and safety of creatine, especially since many athletes use it and the hormone changes could have biological implications.]

Creatine boosting DHT based on one study (https://t.co/QiQK24qq5S) with poor methodology simply shouldn't convince people that it raises DHT. The study had several flaws: — poor randomization (participants assigned based on arrival order rather than actual randomization). — https://t.co/U2aqxnamVB

@HansAmato studies vary: https://t.co/jO1Jq066y4 perhaps it's about the dose, DHT peaked during the loading phase in this study, stayed elevated once returning to 5g a day once loading phase was over, but not as high as in the original 7 days. excited for your bloodwork after the 45g

4. Creatine = more than muscle You already know it helps in the gym. But creatine also supercharges DHT. One study showed a 56% increase in DHT after just a week of creatine: https://t.co/0AGPzCKoQj 5g-10g a day. Cheap, effective, underrated.

9. Does Creatine Cause Hair Fall? There’s no direct evidence linking creatine to hair loss. A single study performed on 17 rugby players showed a slight rise in DHT, but this doesn’t conclusively cause hair fall as that study was not repeated. https://t.co/wrM4hFH3os

@trycreate_co From people reading way too much into a 2009 study showing an increase in DHT with creatine supplementation. The study didn’t even assess hair-loss. https://t.co/1pAhEZ4Ch8

التحقيق : من أين أتت هذه الإشاعة حول تساقط الشعر؟ هناك دراسة واحدة https://t.co/L5nT3OHAe9 تشير إلى أن الكرياتين يزيد من (DHT) وأن DHT يسبب تساقط الشعر 20 مشارك من لاعبي الركبي لوحظ زيادة صغيرة ولكن ذات دلالة في DHT بعد استخدام الكرياتين لمدة 21 يوما.

So the whole ‘creatine causes baldness’-rhetoric is based off of a South African, 2009 study, by Van der Merwe, et al. called “Three weeks of creatine monohydrate supplementation affects dihydrotestosterone to testosterone ratio in college-aged rugby players”. Crushed…

Concerned about creatine & hair loss? A 2010 study found increased DHT levels (a hormone related to hair loss) in rugby players using creatine, but levels stayed within normal ranges. No other studies have validated these results. https://t.co/FtMFAHvEXU

@konrad_sitarz @BowTiedUM @AaronAlexxander It is absolutely possible. Finasteride can lower DHT up to 70%, so why can't a 30-50% increase not speed up hair loss? https://t.co/EJJj4y4qFq https://t.co/FLbo2HGpng

@TheCryptoDog @Jetskigrizzly @Jacktheoiler It's mainly because of these studies: https://t.co/iAA06VEfsh In the end, with or without creatine your body will produce DHT and whatever hair will fall out will end up falling out...

Jurnal yang membahas pengaruh creatine terhadap jerawat dan hair loss gag nemu saya. Cuman ada penelitian yang mengatakan bahwa creatine dapat meningkatkan konversi testosteron ke DHT. Clin J Sport Med. 2009;19(5):399-404. doi:10.1097/JSM.0b013e3181b8b52f https://t.co/TTfT3GqMq9
