Testosterone post ADT
My t level is coming back very slowly following salvage radiation + 6 months ADT. I’m 60 years old and after nearly 18 months still have difficulty gaining muscle mass and losing this gut. The good news is my PSA is still undetectable. Any suggestions?

Testosterone

L-tyrosine causes sebaceous hyperplasia?
I read that L-tyrosine increases
testosterone
, which leads to PCOS (which I have) and sebaceous hyperplacia. Did anyone experience this? How did you got rid of this acne?

Can anyone relate?
I got diagnosed with pcos in august 2020 after having a blood test to show my
testosterone
was raised 3.7n/mol. I miscarried in April 2020 and from august 2020 up until this month (it's still happening now) I bleed constantly, I loose large clots etc.

Value of LDH
A young oncologist where I had my PSMA scan requested PSA,
testosterone
and LDH tests to go along with the scan. My LDH was at the low end of the "range" (but we still didn't discuss it LOL). My question is what part (if any) will/should LDH play in my treatment going forward ?

Awful night sweats: hyper, hypo, other?
I have pretty awful sleep, possibly worse since recently starting
Testosterone
Replacement Therapy (HRT for men if you like). I'm a 56 year old man.

and episodes of RLS?

All these are listed as becoming worse if these are taken 🤦🏻♀️ I’m 41 and typically have low egg quality, I’ve been put on
testosterone
which seemed to help in the past. Not sure what the aim of this is has it hasn’t been discussed.

Would you recommend any further tests BEFORE IVF? (ERA, NK cells, etc)
I’m 33, have a very high AMH, short luteal phase of 5 days and some signs of PCOS (High follicle count, slightly raised
testosterone
but normal LH/FSH balance and i ovulate on my own) The nurse i met with last week was confident we should qualify for NHS funding in my area but also suggested my PCO

Effect of low endogenous testosterone
Have had low
testosterone
(<150 ng/ml) most of my life. Non-existent libido, depression and tired most of the time. Recent studies have shown that aggressive prostate cancer more common in people with low
testosterone

Thoughts on ADT with sRT?
It seems like the answer to this could be teased out of existing data if we excluded the guys who never got their
testosterone
back from the data. What do y'all think?

BCR May Not Be a Strong Surrogate End Point for Prostate Cancer Survival
{This was sufficient for me to delay Lupron as long as I could (I still haven't used it, but I do use DES [Diethylstilbestrol]) and to develop the hypothesis that periodic
testosterone
replacement might be useful during ADT, to reverse adaptations.}

Hormone concerns prior to ICSI
So far I have found that on a day 21 test I have normal levels of estradiol but low progesterone and
testosterone
. So I have low pH/E2 meaning my body is acting like I am in estrogen dominance.

Multi-Drug Combo May Be Best Against Prostate Cancer...I thought it was a known fact already!
"Combining two or three
testosterone
