Gamma Linolenic Acid

Studies carried out in 1992 suggested that unsaturated fatty acids such as Gamma Linolenic Acid play an important role in regulating androgen action in target cells. Studies carried out in 1994 show that certain unsaturated fatty acids such as Gamma linolenic acid are potent 5 alpha reductase inhibitors and may be usefull in the treatment of disorders related to DHT such as benign prostratic hyperplasma, acne, androgenetic alopecia and female hirsuitism.
