Testosterone replacement therapy for late onset hypogonadism: what is the risk of inducing prostate cancer?

Abstract:

:Prescription sales of testosterone have risen considerably over the last decade and are likely to continue to grow as further preparations become available. Testosterone promotes existing prostate cancer; however, concern does exist as to whether or not testosterone therapy induces prostate cancer. The aim of this article is to review the evidence for such a link.

  • The role of candidate genetic polymorphisms in the etiology of prostate cancer.

    abstract::Prostate cancer appears to result from complex interactions among genetic, endocrine and environmental factors. Identification of risk factors for development and progression of prostate cancer is needed. This will allow researchers to design strategies to reduce the morbidity and mortality from this cancer and to ide...
