Hypothyroidism & no period for 17months
In November of last year my
testosterone
levels were reading slightly high so I was advised by the GP to research PCOS and make some changes to my lifestyle. I did this but still no period. February this year my GP decided to test for thyroid and my TSH level was 37.5.

Bipolar Androgen Therapy in Prostate Cancer.
The bipolar androgen therapy is an under-investigation treatment that consists in periodical oscillation between castration levels and supraphysiological levels of
testosterone
in order to prevent the adaptation of prostate cancer cells to a low-androgen environment.

Ok to take a Lupron Vacation?
PSA and
Testosterone
undetectable in December, 2019. Started Lupron vacation in June, 2020. Treating at Dana Farber, Boston, with Dr Sompavdeh. Side effects are typical: weight gain, constant fatigue combined with insomnia (which is a heck of a combo), zero libido, and difficulty recalling words.

University California-Los Angeles have launched Phase Two Clinical Trial Of Degarelix To Treat Only Male COVID-19 Patients
Dr Rettig is Medical Director, Prostate Cancer Program, UCLA Institute of Urologic Oncology The reason for choosing degarelix might be that it brings
testosterone
down very quickly. This means otherwise healthy (except of COVID-19) male patients will be (temporarily?) castrated.

Insulin and Prostate.
I'd gone as far as I could in researching the condition and came up against '
testosterone
and dihydrotestosterone' leaving it at that - it's a hormone thing right?

Follow up to previous post regarding a friends blood tests.
He is on
testosterone
injections as he had low
Testosterone
. He has been prescribed eltroxin 50mcg per day. Any thoughts? Would this be a typical starting dose? I hope you can make out the results from the photo.

High Testosterone after one month Leuprolide shot
My dad went to his first blood control one month after his first 3-months Leuprolide shot, but his
Testosterone
is still on normal levels (4.7 ng/ML equivalent to 470 ng/dl). His PSA come from more than 50 to 22, but I guess is only because Bicalutamide. His alkaline phosphatase is on 75.
