Duke has recently published a study that says the use of hormone treatment as practiced for the last 20 years is backwards with normal testosterone levels best for aggressive cancer and low testosterone best for less aggressive cancer.
Most doctors are ignoring this new revelation and are still following the practices developed 20 years ago. If Duke is right, then hormone treatment should only be used for low levels of cancer.
