hey, it's a fair question! how much do we really know about their lives anyways? maybe it WAS the gear, maybe it WASN'T ... but my understanding is that lower over all hormone levels could account for premature aging... not supraphysiological levels. So maybe they had some permanent supression?? if so, why not do some HRT... look, I think a good urologist, and regular checkups would ease yoru pain, and maybe put this issue to rest.
