What are the warning signs that DHT is high?

Asked 2 years ago

My son is going through puberty and I'm worried he might produce excess levels of DHT as his father did. But because all teenagers produce acne, it's hard to tell. What other effects of DHT should I look out for?

Puberty is a time characterized by many body changes some might be confused for signs of high DHT. If you're worried that your son is producing high levels of DHT, it's advisable to speak about it to a medical professional.
