I was under the same impression about testosterone and bicalutamide, however I had it tested recently and was 33 - quite low. As for side effects, I’ve had what are some typical ADT side effects. Weight gain (which I have successfully combated with diet and exercise), reduced energy and libido, and Gynecomastia. I don’t like the times when I’m on the bicalutamide, but I really enjoy the vacations.
