90-120 / 1000+ resultsresearch Development of prostate cancer in a patient with primary hypogonadism: intratumoural steroidogenesis in prostate cancer tissues
Prostate cancer can progress even with low testosterone due to internal hormone production in the tumor.
research The Effect of Leonuri Herba alkaloids on Senile BPH (male and female hormone induced) model rats
Leonuri Herba alkaloids may help treat hormone-induced enlarged prostate in rats.
research Should Finasteride Be Routinely Given Preoperatively for TURP?
Finasteride may reduce bleeding after TURP, but more research needed.
