Steroids and anesthetic

[SilverTest]

Hey guys

If someone was on TRT , or doing a cycle , say 250 mg test per week , does it interfere with the anesthetic dose if he is going for a surgery ??

In general , the question is , are steroids and in particular testosterone significant if one is going for a surgery ? biologically speaking

Thanks

No, you will be fine, if you have concerns tell them beforehand.

I had hernia surgery while "ON"..no problem.

Not with the anesthetic, but there is a possibility of clotting issues so i would mention it, it's probably rare on such a dose but better safe..........

"HE" should be ok. "HE" shouldn't have to worry about anything if its trt since the dr's should know

yeah i know. he kinda said both, so i'd imagine the dr's would take the precautions anyway if he's on trt. and i was accentuating the third person

think it will be fine.
unfortunately these medline citations don't have accompanying abstracts, but the fact that someone has written about this makes me wonder.have no idea what interactions could exist.
