0:00.0	So up guys, Derek more plates more dates.com. Today we're going to be talking about just
0:03.9	creteam cause hair loss. So this is super highly requested topic. A lot of guys have asked me.
0:10.1	It's something that's a lot harder to prove. It's rather than saying yes or no. I just kind of
0:14.5	want to delve into first of all the study that everyone references as far as implying that it does
0:19.7	cause hair loss and everyone you know talks about
0:21.8	this study as the reference point for okay I got to stop creatine now because it did this
0:26.0	then I'm going to show you my own blood work on creatine as an example and I'm going to show you
0:31.8	another set of blood work that was brought to my attention from another guy on the Reddit who
0:37.0	basically did a before and after on
0:38.7	fanasteride without creatine and with creatine and the difference in his dhacht levels so the first thing

1:11.8	with creatine at 25 grams per day or placebo for seven days followed by a maintenance of 14
1:18.8	days with 5 grams per day. So, you know, a fairly standard creteen, you know, loading phase
1:23.7	followed by maintenance of 5 grams afterwards. You've probably done the same thing if you're on creatine. So basically the results showed that after seven days of creatine loading or a further
1:33.1	14 days of creatine maintenance, serum testosterone levels did not change. However, levels of DHT
1:38.8	increased by 56% after seven days of creatine loading and remained 40% above baseline after 14 days maintenance.
1:46.0	The Dht to testosterone ratio also increased by 36% after seven days.
1:51.0	Creightine supplementation and remained elevated by 22% after the maintenance dose.
