For men who do not have prostate cancer, isn’t restoring testosterone levels a bit trickier?

Interesting - I was told that prostate cancer fed off testosterone...

NOT understanding this.

I had Gleason 7 prostate cancer 5 years ago, successfully killed by Tulsa Pro non-invasive procedure and have been cancer-free ever since.

I was on T-shots for low T for over 10 years, and was told by many experts that the testosterone FEEDS prostate cancer.

And all radiation I investigated included androgen therapy that lowers T to zero. Also results in men having symptoms of menopause.

I still have way below normal T and the natural resultant lack of energy.

This study says that after the radiation treatment that the mens T-levels returned to normal?

I’d love to get back on T-shots to boost my energy but risk is too high. I am 80.

Any help understanding this study is appreciated.
