Interestingly, on the RYZE mushroom coffee website, it cautions people with hormone sensitive cancers to speak with their doctors before drinking their coffee.
They use a variety of shrooms in their blend, including Turkey Tail and Lion’s Mane. Now, perhaps hormones ARE affected, but how exactly - up or down they don’t specify.
I would have to think that if it has a beneficial effect on PCa, it must lower T (by increasing gut flora which inhibits production of T by harmful bacteria) but don’t remember seeing its direct correlation to PSA values. Ed, do you have any info or links to share?

From my readings Turkey Tail mushrooms do not work on the hormonal system or lower testosterone. Turkey Tail has been reported to work through the immune system and T- cells

T-cells. From the Cleveland Clinic:
T cells are a type of white blood cell called lymphocytes. They help your immune system fight germs and protect you from disease. There are two main types. Cytotoxic T cells destroy infected cells. Helper T cells send signals that direct other immune cells to fight infection.
