Does it raise DHT?

Yes

Does it raise DHT?

There’s a single small scale study that uses very large doses of creatine for a short time period that suggests creatine raises dht.

hardly confirmation which is exactly why a larger scale over a 6 month timeframe is being performed to give clarity on whether creatine raises dht, unfortunately it has been postponed due to covid but when it gets released it should give clarity on the subject.

right now the creatine dht link is dubious (for those high dosages + short timeline too btw) so make a judgement call over whether you want to use it or not.
