[QUOTE="f16doc_FitMD, post: 213943, member: 43382"] Your comments are valid. I am a physician who prescribes a lot of testosterone. I have studied this topic extensively. I believe the origins of the concern about testosterone and prostate cancer go back to research done in 1941 by nobel prize (1966) winning physician/urologist who published a (very poor) study on treatment of a group of end stage prostate cancer patients. He castrated one of his subjects and the prostate cancer regressed. So, what Huggins showed was that is you take away ALL testosterone from a male, the prostate tissue (cancerous (even metastatic) or otherwise, will shrink. Although many urologists and even their societies are coming around, for many years they flipped this such that if it shrinks when you take it away, it must grow when you give it. Thanks to the work of Dr Abraham Morgentaler and others, we now know that the prostate tissue (cancerous, metastatic or normal tissue) has a saturation point of about 240 ng/dl. Anything above that has no further affect on the tissue. Like a flower and water, take it away, the flower shrivels, add it back, the flower comes back, give more, no further affect. As Dr Morgentaler has said (you can find his lecture on YouTube), 'There is not one (as in ZERO) article in the scientific literature that proves that testosterone causes or stimulates prostate cancer'.
