Alfatradiol (17a-estradiol, Ell-Cranell® alpha) is a stereoisomer of the female hormone 17b-estradiol. It inhibits the conversion of testosterone to the metabolite dihydrotestosterone (DHT) by suppressing 5a-reductase activity. In addition, by inhibiting 17b-dehydrogenase, it impedes the conversion process of androstenedione to testosterone, resulting in a reduction in the syntheses of testosterone and DHT. It also accelerates the conversion of testosterone to estradiol by stimulating aromatase, decreasing the level of testosterone and leading to a reduction in DHT. In addition, alfatradiol (17a-estradiol) has been reported to stimulate the generation of hair follicular matrix cells.
