Not exact matches
The problem is that squalene peroxide both increases the
amount of keratin your skin produces, and triggers a further localised increase in
sebum production.
This is shown in the results; while they found that
sebum production was identical, they also found that the
amount of acne between twins varied significantly.
This phenomenon means that the same
amount of DHT can stimulate a lot more
sebum production in women than men.
Therefore if you take saw palmetto and inhibit the conversion process, you have the same
amount of androgens in your body (because less testosterone is being converted and it thus increases) but overall lower
sebum production.
