[QUOTE="Nelson Vergel, post: 97352, member: 3"] . RobRen Sorry to hear about your DVT. Corticoid steroids may have accelerated it but difficult to know. I do not know if you have read this interview: [B][URL="https://www.excelmale.com/forum/showthread.php?3201-Can-Testosterone-Induce-Blood-Clots-and-Thrombosis-Interview-with-Dr-Charles-Glueck"]Can Testosterone Induce Blood Clots and Thrombosis?
