you shouldn't use anadrol or growth hormone. growth hormone is said to aggrevate cancer and anadrol will make prostate cancer worse.
i don't know how much of drugs like test or dbol convert to dht. since they cause hair loss, i am assuming at least some (hair loss and prostate cancer are both due to dht, so i am assuming that you shouldn't use any drugs that cause hair loss, since the same hormone that causes hair loss also causes prostate cancer) of it is converted to dht. if you want my opinion (i'm not basing this on fact, you should get a 2nd opinion), you should stay away from the hard drugs like dbol, test and anadrol. use something that has no conversion to dht (or that never has hair loss as a side effect). i think that deca might be like that, no dht in it, but i am not sure. The gains will be slower (probably about 1/2 as fast as on test or dbol), but they will be more permanent. are you currently on finasteride, ie proscar? IP: Logged |

Titan, any type of steroid promotes cancer cell growth. The most common are testicular, prostate, and liver. Even the simplest steroid like Decca will promote, but maybe not cause, "cancer". Every steroid alters the immune system, thus making it harder,(or sometimes impossible) for the body to fight off the ocassional cancer cell. Sorry to darken your perspective of A.S., but it is only the truth. Besides, one or two cycles will not pose a threat if you are healthy. As long as you don't have any auto immune diseases, etc. GOOD LUCK MAN! IP: Logged |

I HAVE THE ANSWER FOR YOU, WHEN YOU GO ON THE JUICE USE A SUPPLEMENT CALL "SAW PALMETTO" THIS WILL BLOCK A CERTAIN ENZYME FROM ENLARGING THE PROSTATE GLAND G IP: Logged |

The current consensus is that DHT is NOT the main culprrit in causing prostate cancer and scientists are focusing on estrogen and prolactin as culprits. There are a few new studies out that show testosterone replacement vs. primobolan and in these individuals estrogen levels were higher in the primo group and the primo group had more negative effects on the prostate. I take the saw palmetto because it has been shown to keep the prostate from growing and proscar for hairloss. IP: Logged |

actually only one steroid converts to DHT- testosterone. though some other androgens are 5a reduced deca and one or two others- most androgens just bind to the the prostate cells- the difference being their binding capacity and their stimulation of the receptor- DHT binds really well and has a strong expression in these cells- the bind capacity of other AS is not all that well known- though I am sure their are some studies, I just have not read any. ------------------ IP: Logged |
