Other ways to reduce DHT,
Reports suggest a diet high in phytosterols may inhibit the enzyme, 5-alpha reductase and block the production of DHT. You can obtain phytosterols through food sources, including wheat germ, sesame oil, corn oil, canola oil, peanuts, almonds, macadamia nuts, brussels sprouts, olive oil and rye bread. The most abundant phytosterols are, beta-sitosterol, campesterol, and stigmasterol. Phytosterols are not produced in the body. Thus, their sole source is diet.

Although pumpkin seed is considered a fruit its still a pretty interesting choice, it inhibits 5 ar, also a phytoestrogen and galactagogue, other info posted in the link.
