A member asked:
I read taking taurine is good for hair growth but then read it raises testosterone and prolactin. so would it raise dht causing hair loss??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible: If you raise your testosterone level that typically will be more substrate to make DHT. However, I am unaware of any study that associates taurine use with hair loss.
