Posted , 3 users are following.

I just had the urolift done about a week ago and wonder if I should continue using Testosterone injections? My prostate was basically border line with a very bladder damage so i elected to go with the urolift and yes the first day was a mother but everything tappered off. So what really happens if lift weights of ride a bike a couple weeks out?

    Their is a lot of evidence pointing to exogenous testosterone causing bph or increasing prostate size.. Better to increase your own test levels

      I've heard that but can't find any real documentation that supports it. I've asked my doctor and says Testosterone has got a bad rap. He says I can stop using it if I want which is why i'm asking.
