Warriors:

Is it possible get treatment for BPH (rezum, Holep,..) while on AS?

Warrior in WI.

sure.

[witantric in reply to Tall_Allen]

OK. One of my friends was claiming that it is dangerous because it might spread cancer cells.

[Tall_Allen in reply to witantric]

Cancer cells can't spread until they have undergone a genomic transition called EMT. Low risk men are not in any danger of EMT.

I use Saw Palmetto. Prosta Strong or you could use beta sitosterol. I use both. Surgery not needed for BPH for me for the last 20 years. Best of luck to you.

I've been on AS for 18 years. Was low-risk Gleason 6 at start, now intermediate risk 3+4 and continuing with AS. Meanwhile, for BPH, in January of this year I had UroLift, which was a godsend. So, for me, the answer is yes.

I had TURP surgery for BPH 10 years prior to a prostate cancer diagnosis. My only regret was waiting longer than I should have to get it done. How do I spell relief? T - U - R- P !
