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.
