    PAE Surgery for Prostate ( anyone here of it ? )

    FWIW, I did look into PAE late last year, in case I needed something like this. They do the procedure locally in the Chicago area, if you have NO insurance, it cost $7000. Most insurance will cover it, but you need clinical documentation to support this for insurance to cover it. I like to...

    Doctor just put me on dutasteride for BPH

    I am partial to using "Prostate Artery Embolization", which to put it simply, partially blocks the blood supply to the prostate to shrink it. I would like my prostate to actually shrink, and not use traditional surgery or a drug like finasteride to do that. What do you think about that procedure?

    First, glad your son and others recovered. From what I have read, it's very plausible that this drug helped.

    Ivermectin and COVID-19

    @seaexplorer I would say the reason this hasn't been more widely disseminated and given more attention is the study about covid-19 was done in vitro with doses 35 times higher than the approved dose in humans. They said they have increased dosage 10 times higher, and have had some limited...

    Coronavirus antibodies may last only two to three months

    That's a bummer if true. I suppose I should make an effort to expose myself to the virus to maintain my immunity. :)

    Sound's like the basis for another class action lawsuit concerning propecia and BPH treatments.

    Is DHT the Cause of BPH ( Prostate Enlargement ) or is it Estradiol?

    I don't know that HCG did have an effect. It's certainly in a related region and changing testicular levels of Testosterone / DHT / estrogen is more likely to have an effect Vs serum levels. I saw one study where HCG was implicated in prostate growth, but it wasn't very convincing. Much...

    Is DHT the Cause of BPH ( Prostate Enlargement ) or is it Estradiol?

    On a similar note, at age 43 my PSA was 2.1, and stayed in the range of 2.1-2.7 for the next 22 years, even with 5 years of TRT at age 57. My T has been both low and high during that time, likely E2 was fairly low and well as DHT likely being on the low side, even during most of the TRT...

    Lowering Testosterone May Reduce Severity of COVID-19

    Lowering Testosterone May Reduce Severity of COVID-19

    At this point, I don't think anything really works outside of lucky genetics and good health. I haven't been taking melatonin and have a fairly high testosterone level, I had covid without even being aware of it. They eliminated testosterone, brought it close to zero with degarelix, not just...
