Testosterone is a prostate cancer fertilizer.

This may be true, but i no longer have a prostate, my path report showed clean margins after surgery with nothing being found outside of the prostate itself, and my PSA is undetectable. Not to mention the dying question of if testosterone is a prostate cancer fertilizer, why dont more young people, who have significantly higher testosterone levels, develop prostate cancer?...

@jerryegge not a smart "generalization"...........in fact, your assertion is largely inaccurate. True for recurrent PC that androgyn deprivation therapy is a protocol of choice HOWEVER, for men with low T a number of years after RP, there is zero evidence to show that controlled TRT has any effect on the increase of return of PC. Numerous studies show nothing and some show that the TRT group actually has a LOWER incidence of the return of PC
