Anytime i've gone over 12 weeks or more , my prostate becomes an issue.
I'm sick of not being able to piss or not getting a quality boner Lol...

Can you be more specific - what you are taking and how much for the 12 weeks?

In HRT your taking enough to make you normal so really the prostate is not that big of a deal. How do you know it is your prostate that is causing your problem and not some problem like high estrogen.

Also I find it hard to beleive that your prostate will suddenly swell up enough to cause problems and then snap right back when you go off.

If you are on HRT your doc should be taking blood tests on a regular basis so tell him to do a PSA when he does the blood work. My Euro did one every six months. It's not the testosterone per se that affects the prostate but the DHT is the main culprit. This is also what causes men to lose their hair, too high a level of DHT. The protate is loaded with androgen receptors for DHT but I don't know how long it takes for it to cause problems. The therory is that DHT causes BPH. As for the boner, DHT should help in that respect. Better do a check on the aromatization to estrogen also. If you take too much test it can aromatize into estro, affects some men more than others.
