Prostate

[Sub-Zero]

my buddy had some complications with his prostate last cycle and he described it as "always havin to piss really bad but when he got to the bathroom he could only squeeze out a few drops"

Oh damn! Could Masteron do this to me???? Yikes!

hopefully someone who knows more can chime in but i thought the answer to this is YES

the DHT ones, that cause balding, also cause prost8 issues

inflamed prostate is common among older men.. best thing is to get checkups, I hate doing it but ya got to. its easy to treat if caught.

anytime you experience burning or the other symptoms listed above you should get checked

Burning where? When I pee? Or sit down?

Also..doesn't estrogen need to be high in order for prostate issues to occur?

Definitely T causes prostate changes (enlargement), and I've seen it in myself. I keep up on the PSA and the other unpleasant but necessary checkup, and it's so far, just normal prostate enlarging that happens after your 30s & into 40s. If you get an infection of prostatitis, (not related to AAS or meds that I know of), the symptoms would be pain and really sudden change with difficulty in getting pee started, or sometimes being totally plugged off and needing a catheter. Also it can cause semen to be bloody or smelly. That's an infection that needs antibiotics, and sometimes an injection of antibiotics into the prostate itself. Regular enlargement is just part of life for most all men, and we learn to cope with it. As far as sexual function, the reduced semen is also an effect of AAS, but that's another issue. Just an off-topic mention: Prozac is a classic cause of reduced semen and VERY long-time to ejaculate; often too long. But if you're 18 and tend to blow your load as soon as your GF grabs your belt buckle, a low dose of Prozac sometimes gives you more time...

Charles,

Excellent and far more thorough of a response. Sub zero you are correct all aas that convert to dht will affect your prostate. Charles however covered the topic quite well and every mans prostate WILL grow as we age hence the need for regular checkups.

Hold up!!! Got 2 questions I need answered.

1- so taking masteron, which is a dht...I'm asking for prostate problems?

2- my primary doc is a female. Does that mean she's going to be the one putting her finger up my butt???

Smoke,

Yes, again ANY aas that converts to dht WILL affect your prostate. However we unless you are at least in you late 30's I wouldn't worry about it but if you begin to experience any of the symptoms listed above go get a check up!

As for your female MD she can run a simple lab work on you instead of a prostate exam so don't get all worked up over small potato's. ;-)

I'm 35 years old. And would like to NOT wait for symptoms to arise. I would like to make sure things are check. Just so I can have piece of mind.

I mean, what if I wait until there IS symptoms. Then what? Now I'm fucked.

Also....doesn't the prostate need high E levels along with DHT in order for problems to arise?
