NeoVitals DHT Defence Capsule

Description

What is DHT and Why It Causes Hair Loss

Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is a hormone derived from testosterone by the enzyme 5-alpha reductase. In people with a genetic predisposition to androgenetic alopecia, DHT binds to hair follicle receptors and progressively miniaturises them — causing the hairline to recede, the crown to thin, and eventually follicle death. This process affects both men and women.

The pharmaceutical solution — finasteride — works by blocking 5-alpha reductase, but comes with well-documented side effects including sexual dysfunction, depression, and gynecomastia. Many patients discontinue it within months.

Why NeoVitals DHT Defence is Different

Designed by Dr. Nav Vikram — a hair transplant surgeon with 15+ years of experience and over 10,000 successful cases — NeoVitals DHT Defence takes a multi-target botanical approach to naturally inhibit 5-alpha reductase activity without pharmaceutical side effects. Every ingredient has been selected based on peer-reviewed research.

Clinically Researched Ingredients

• Saw Palmetto Extract (320mg) — The most researched natural DHT blocker. Multiple clinical studies show efficacy comparable to finasteride 1mg for hair count improvement, without sexual side effects.
• Bhringraj / Eclipta alba (300mg) — A 2024 IJAR study confirmed Bhringraj has the highest 5-alpha reductase inhibition activity among tested Ayurvedic herbs. A cornerstone of Ayurvedic hair medicine for centuries.
• Pumpkin Seed Oil Extract (200mg) — A randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study showed 40% increase in hair count vs 10% in placebo group over 24 weeks.
• Stinging Nettle Root (200mg) — Binds to sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG), reducing free testosterone available for DHT conversion. Acts synergistically with Saw Palmetto.
• Green Tea Extract / EGCG (150mg) — Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) inhibits 5-alpha reductase and provides potent antioxidant protection to hair follicles.
• Mulethi / Glycyrrhiza glabra (150mg) — Anti-androgenic and anti-inflammatory properties. Helps modulate hormonal signalling around the hair follicle.
• Zinc Picolinate (15mg) — Zinc deficiency is directly linked to hair loss. Zinc picolinate has the highest bioavailability of any zinc form. Essential cofactor for over 300 enzymes involved in hair metabolism.

Who Should Take This

• Men with male pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia)
• Women with female pattern hair loss or PCOS-related hair thinning
• Anyone seeking a natural alternative to finasteride
• Post-hair transplant patients wanting to protect existing follicles
• Those with a family history of baldness wanting preventive action
