It has NEVER been proven. At least to my knowledge.

anything that promotes cell growth including testosterone can be considered a promoter of cancer. especially avoid GH and above all put your health first.

Found some things on Liver cancer actually...

Not many reports however.

[peachfuzz]

the liver cancer is only with orals tho correct?

Only substances that induce mitotic division are considered a risk at promoting cancer. Having said that there is conflicting data on testosterone's role in prostate cancer.

To my knowledge Testosterone is not mitogenic in any tissue in adults....

Fine fine smarty pants. Testosterone can be a cancer initiator. Im a victim a faulty teaching allright. Also it should be noted that it is contained on the list of known carcinogens as well as estrogen. Why do i feel like weve had this conversation before?

Very conflicting, in my view Estrogen is probably more of a culprit than Testosterone

I would agree...but HGH on the other hand ...although not technically a steroid...is mitogenic and should def be avoided . Would you agree with this?

its provoke.

[vishus]

bro, everything nowadays causes cancer...drinking tap water will cause cancer, eating too much red meat will cause cancer, breathing in air will cause cancer...im pretty sure steroids wont cause cancer, you have plenty more to worry about than juice

[jimmyinkedup]

I dont think the question was causing cancer it was from someone who has had melanomas asking if they provoke cancer cells. Thats the thing with growth ..(simple terms here) it doesnt merely promote cellular growth ...it promotes cellular division ie increasing cell #'s whether cells are good or bad ie- normal cells or cancerous ones..it does not distinguish. This is not true with steroids...they will not increase number of cells.

that is true, which testosterone wouldn't fit into. i would still be weary of it however, since it can speed things up in the body (mpb, maturation, etc) so it doesn't seem worth the risk at all, even though its probably safe.

its good to hear its going well for now, that can be rough

I would tend to agree with that too. I worked next to reproductive endocrine biologist that were cancer researchers. Both labs worked exclusively with estrogen pathways and cancer.

I would tend to agree with this too, simple for the fact that IGF-1 is the major hormone expressed under the influence of HGH. However tumor cells secrete there own growth factors so its complicated and not worth the risk IMO.

I dont think it is worth the risk as well.

thanks for the input guys. yeah it was pretty rough.
still looking for articles on it. i bet there i some i just haven;t looked in the right place,
