There's another way to stop DHT, but it's quite complicated, but it's canceling or denying its pathway through the use of another enzyme called the "Human type 3 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase" or (AKR1C2 aldo-keto reductase 1C2) HSD type 3, and that's in androgen metabolism in prostate cells.
Fancy way of saying this pathway can actually turn DHT into and estrogen metabolite in estrogen receptor beta ER-beta. This wasn't known, probably still not, but it's least it could be a potential new action, but that info was posted in the Anti-Androgen section sometime ago, very complicated stuff.
Oh thanks POM, I appreciate that.
