There's not much difference in ways people handle it, though there are special cases in every scenario. Exceptions to the rules.
deadlyshaolin, this is for you home-skillet:
Researches from the UCLA Medical Center found no effect on prostate metabolism or size in older men receiving testosterone supplements for 6 months:
(JAMA, 296: 2531-2361, 2006)
Also, Dr. Abraham Morgentaler of Harvard Medical School cited in his writing that the perceived link between testosterone boosting and prostate cancer was based on one subject in a study published in 1941. Castration caused a decrease progression in prostate cancer whereas testosterone supplementation caused growth. Since then, numerous studies have reported no link between testosterone levels and specific risk of prostate cancer:
(European Urology, 50: 935-939, 2006)
I also have something few people have ever seen. A long-term study of Powerlifters and muscle morphology comparing steroid users to non. After 10 years if memory serves me there were no endangerments of prostates. I can e-mail that one to you if you'd like to see it.
Not sure how this relates but what of the numerous studies linking estrogen hormone replacement with cancer? Is there any other instance relating to men?
I'd be interested in seeing any long term (5-10 yr) studies on the effectives of steroids and any tests examining increase in cancer and other side effects.
I've heard of nolvadex and clomid used post cycle but never for a cycle. Any side effects of the usage?
Also I read this somewhere:
"With all due respect, I'm pretty sure that nolvadex will not prevent estrogen buildup. It prevents the binding of estrogen to the receptors.... so you can still have a buildup of estrogen while taking Nolvadex. Once the Nolvadex is discontinued, you can potentially suffer from a rebound free estrogen in your system. However, taking something like arimidex will prevent the formation of estrogen in the first place."
Care to comment?
(Not trying to be an asshat, just curious)
