Prostate question

[guns626]

Does anyone know why you get enlargement of the prostate from aas? What are the best ways to combat this?

[LORDBLiTZ]

Proscar

It is normal for a man to get a enlarged prostate as we get older. BHT or prostatic hypertrophy/hyperplasia is the technical term used. As it gets bigger it rubs agaisnt the bladder causing frequent trips to the bathroom or dripping discharges maybe with painfull urination. DHT (dihydrotestosterone) is believed to accelerate the prostate cell growth so alot of your aas such as deca is a DHT derivitive. As we age test levels normally fall thus leaving the test to estrogen ratio worse, meaning higher estrogen in your body. Estrogen is a known cause for abnormal cell growth to prostates. So you can see why aas can be a possible conributing factor. If you are predisposed to BHT then prolong continued high doses of aas with accellerate growth. A rectal exam and PSA (prostate specific antigen) blood work is needed yearly for over 40+ .

hehe , he said rectal.

Deca is not a DHT derivitive its also not to androgenic .

LOL fina truck... your just a post whore..

True, deca is a derivitive of 19-nortesterone and is a progestin. However, with 5alpha-reductase enzyme is converted to DHT a lesser androgen vs. test.

I don't understand what you are getting at. DHT stands for dihydro-testosterone , nandrolone converts to dihydro-nandrolone which is not as androgenic as DHT.

Bro, I know what DHT stands for if you read my thread, yes nandrolones are converted to a lesser androgen then DHT but perhaps I should of not evan mentioned DECA but my whole point is DHT & estrogen affects the prostate and evan Deca a nandrolone can in some instances aromatize to estrogen (although most of the time it may not).

TOTALY AGREE

[***xxx***]

yep, but still deca converts to dhn not dht. if you are sensitive to that, cycle always with proscar.
now this rectal exam sounds ****ty

In clinical studies Beta Sitoserol has been shown to stop the binding of DHT to receptor sites on the prostate. Read more at www.youngagain2000.com
