Where Azelaic acid is applied it can reduce the level of DHT by 90%.

DHT (Dihydrogen Testosterone) is formed from the combination of the hormone testosterone and the enzyme 5-Alpha-reductase in the body.
Azelaic Acid blocks the 5-alpha-reductase which prevents the conversion of Testosterone into DHT.
