This combination contains several botanicals that inhibit 5-alpha-reductase, which is an enzyme that converts testosterone to the more potent DHT. This is a key therapy for the treatment of prostate cancer and also benign prostatic hypertrophy (BHP). It is also appropriate in the treatment of conditions with elevated testosterone levels such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS).

Thank you for all your efforts, your diligence, and dedication.

This is due to degradation of the substance by both stomach acids and "first pass liver metabolism."
