Is Testosterone Replacement Safe?

The biggest fear among men and their doctors is that elevating Testosterone will lead to an increase in prostate cancer. Paradoxically men who develop prostate cancer do so when their levels are low, not high. The other question is whether adding T to an existing prostate cancer that is slow growing will speed it up or make a small cancer that is dormant flourish. Dr. Abraham Morgentaler, is a urologist at Harvard and a nationally recognized expert on Testosterone replacement. He has studied this extensively and has stated in writing "There is not now-nor has there ever been a scientific basis for the belief that T causes prostate cancer to grow." There is no adverse effect of T on the prostate.

With all of the benefits to health in general it seems that normalizing Testosterone can only have a beneficial effect on a man.
