Creatine has an ugly history of being blamed when in fact athletes are using steroids. There is a single study from 2009 involving college rugby players in South Africa in which all of the rugby players taking creatine also had increased levels of DHT. Correlation does not equal causation, meaning that just because this portion of the population happen to have increased DHT levels while also taking creatine, doesn’t mean that the creatine caused their increased DHT levels.
Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa, two former Major League Baseball players, were pulled into Congress asked why all of these baseball players were hitting balls out of the park. They blamed it on creatine. This study is attempting to say that increased DHT is not caused by creatine. Creatine has an ugly past of being blamed for athletes bad behavior. Steroids cause hair loss, probably not creatine.
