I get this vague sense from urologists and oncologists that you can't give T supplements to prostate cancer patients no matter what their PSA, their Gleason, their PSMA shows because the cancer is always LURKING in the lymph nodes, the body, the ether, waiting to strike.

Actually, they use BAT to treat Advanced prostate cancer patients who’ve had their ARPI stopped working. Doesn’t work for everybody, but I can reset the body so that the ARPI works again. Some people will have quick PSA rises that can’t be helped. This uses monthly testosterone injections.
Here’s one place you can read about BAT treatments

They say it’s a new treatment, but it’s been around for at least 20 years. I was offered a few years ago if I had my ARPI fail.
Here’s another magazine that not only discusses BAT with Dr. Sartor, but also BRCA with PARP and advanced prostate cancer treatments
