TweetDont cut back that much do 500mg a week and keep taking the saw palmetto and what ever else is out there,if it hasnt help the cut back to 250mg but see what works for ya.you dont wanrt to cut back to much to fast. Why didnt the doc give you anything for the prostate. and yeah him being 61 and old school thats what he would say.

TweetOh and I bet theres a whole lot of us here on the board with a prostate thats swollen or inlarged somewhat and we know its from the gear and we dont go to the doc to get it checked. my point is everyone should go get a prostate exam and have the doc get it tetsted just incase. every 5-6 months everyone should do this imo

TweetGOOD ADVICE FUZO....GET THE CHECKUPS!

TweetI bet your prostate would be in the same condition ...even if you would have never taken AAS?

TweetI had some issues with prostate on my last cycle ,pissing 4-5 x a night.After I was done my prostate went back to normal.It just happens I've been "on" for almost 6 weeks now and went for a check-up at the urologists (I'm almost 40),everything was fine when he did the physical check-up,but I still have to get my blood work done this week.The whole finger in the ass had me scared as hell,when I seen him put that lube stuff on his finger it had me all ****ed up.That shit hurt,I'm an exit only type of a guy.I felt violated when I left ,I swear.I don't know if he enjoyed it ,but he was laughing and I was squeezing my ass.I know its a serious subject,but damn there is got to be another way.I'm actually scared if I have to do it again .And I know I'll go to a female doctor with small fingers.

what theory would make you say that

TweetIf you had bloodwork done and your PST levels came in high, you really need to be taking proscar/finasteride. Even if you didn't get bloodwork, proscar 5mg tabs are for an enlarged prostate but bodybuilders can control elevated DHT levels with a much smaller dose (1-2mg per day). 100 pills will be around $100. Not bad if you are taking 1/2 per day.
Another is to keep the test levels in your cycle low. Use non aromatizing androgens.

Unfortunately, I have a hypersensitivity to Finasteride. My lips and hands swol up like you wouldn't believe when I tried taking it with my first cycle when I was concerned about hairloss...

FUZO - Good looking out bro, thanks for the advice. I trimed back to 250 last week as it was taking about a minute for me to start a urine stream when I had to piss... but will bump it up to 500 and keep you guys posted. I'm 8 days into the Saw Palmetto so should see some results by next week.

Did a doctor diagnose that? Only 1.3% had peripheral edema (compared to.9% placebo). cheilitis (swelling of the lips) wasn't even mentioned as a side effect. At what dose?

TweetThis may be a little out there but i speak from personal experience, no scientific data to back any of it. I'm 50, on HRT and here's what i've found works, sex...... Seriously, when i was working in logging camp's it would be 3 to 4 weeks before i had any and it was like pissing through the eye of a needle. But when i'm at home and have sex 4 to 5 times a week i have no issue's.

I even put it to the test, went 6 days with no sex and had my prostate checked and it was swolen, had it tested after regular sex and prostate was fine.

K you can start laughing now, but hey, it works for me

I think there is something to that.
