> Yeah, it was the undecanoate test. But, I also tried the gel....just weird, weird feelings, even my cognitive function is affected. It does, what I imagine to be, feel like how 'roids affect bodybuilders...but these are supposed to be the 'gentle' kind..ugg.. Just, yuck. Now I have a throat and ear infection that I think was possibly caused by all of that steroid use.

So, I am thinking of trying chaste berry, and/or red clover, which have an estrogen effect and lower PSA in men. I really don't care much about sexual function anymore...I just want to chill, my psych meds are fine, and enjoy the rest of my life.

> JayHave you tried finasteride or dutasteride? They inhibit the synthesis of the most potent androgen, dihydrotestosterone, but increase testosterone and estradiol (the most potent natural estrogen). Through this action, they shrink the prostate and reduce androgenic hair loss.
