How can i remove dht from my scalp and body and stop if from being produced?

Testosterone: I assume you are having problems with male-pattern baldness. The 5-alpha DHT is not on your scalp. It is inside your bloodstream and tissues. You cannot "wash it off your scalp." It is produced by your testes. If your hair loss is concerning enough, your doctor can prescribe a 5-alpha reductase inhibitor, such as Propecia, (finasteride) which may arrest the loss of hair. Your doctor can tell you more.
