    Estrogen causes prostate fibrosis (cancer?), DHT prevents/treats it

    Slowly, but surely, the myth of the "evil" dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and the "beneficial" estrogen, when it comes to prostate health, is going the way of the dodo. In fact, people I know who work in research circles say that the "androgen hypothesis" in prostate cancer is no longer being taken...

    Blocking androgens causes inflammation and prostate disease/cancer

    Yet another study striking directly the incredibly corrupt theory known as the "androgen hypothesis" - i.e. that androgens are the cause of many of the issues aging males experience, especially prostate enlargement (BPH) and/or prostate cancer. For almost a century now, the so-called standard of...

    Ganodermataceae Mushrooms

    Anyone ever heard of Ganodermataceae mushrooms? One of my male siblings is interested in using this for problems with prostate and urinary issues. Since I don't have those parts, would love to hear if anyone on this platform has ever tried it and to what, if any, success. Can't find anything on...

    https://lifespa.com/sit-stand-pee Do Real Men Stand or Sit to Pee? Recently, I was having breakfast with a brilliant Ayurvedic practitioner and friend, Kashaypa Fisher, and somehow we got on the subject of whether it is healthier for men to pee standing or sitting—typical Ayurvedic breakfast...

    Cordyceps militaris Fruit Body Extract increases testosterone and DHT secretion

    https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/13/1/50 I personally haven't tried cordyceps but their pro-libido and pro-energy effects are well know in the nootropic community, in fact they are often combined with lion's mane, which is known to lower libido and dht, to counteract its side effects.

    Progesterone Is Androgenic

    I am posting this study as a response to the attacks I keep getting over email and PM, claiming that there absolutely no evidence for my statements that progesterone has androgenic effects (depending on the dose). As I mentioned in many other threads, progesterone is actually a true ligand for...

    5-AR Inhibitor Drugs Like Finasteride Cause Persistent ED And Lower Testosterone

    The FDA has denied for decades that the mainstream drugs for hair loss (MPB) and benign prostate enlargement (BPH) cause any persistent problems. It was in the minds of the users, the FDA said. Upon discontinuation, the problems were said to disappear within 2-4 weeks. But the reports on long...

    Omega-3 (DHA, EPA) Degrades The Androgen Receptor

    One of the reasons the medical industry continues to promotes the use of fish oils is that in animal studies it was shown to shrink the prostate. The mechanism was never fully elucidated, but I suspected it is probably not a good one. This study shows that omega-3 fatty acids are anti-androgenic...

    DIM Is A Potent Androgen Antagonist And Estrogen Agonist

    The question of supplementing DIM often comes up on this forum despite Peat directly advising against it. Aside from its known anti-thyroid functions, we can now add a potent androgen antagonism to its list of "benefits". So, please stop loading up on DIM in the (false) hope that it somehow...

    Pregnenolone & Progesterone Are Both Agonists Of The Androgen Receptor

    Patients with prostate cancer are often treated with a combination of therapies such as 5-AR inhibitors to reduce production of DHT as well as other enzyme inhibitors to reduce conversion of DHEA into other downstream androgens. From the point of view of mainstream "treatment" for prostate...

    Prostate Enlargement (BPH) May Be Due To Endotoxin

    BPH is a very common problem, apparently affecting more than 70%of men over 50. Ray has said in some email exchanges that prostatitis and BPH are linked with endotoxin. I was not able to find much published research on the topic but this new study finally makes that claim. What is more...

    Many Officially Diagnosed Cancers Are Not Cancer At All

    While this study is mostly about thyroid "cancer" it actually highlights a problem that Ray has written a lot about - i.e. the manipulation of official diagnostic criteria to skew disease cure rates in favor of modern medicine. Thankfully, the trend seems to be reversing and thyroid "cancer" is...

    Prolactin As A Causative Agent In Prostate Cancer

    Just wanted to post this, given the almost perfect correlation between prolactin and expression of estrogen "receptors" in tissues. If prolactin is a causative agent in prostate cancer, than the current idea of treating prostate cancer with estrogen is laughable. I also posted a study showing...

    Low Testosterone Levels Tied To Worse Prognosis For Prostate Cancer
