A member asked:

Can estrogen inhibitor formen cause the same side effects as testestorne therapy?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Age 80: I am not sure I understand your question but at your age (if I read it correctly) you may be having side effects from your own testosterone - such as an enlarged prostate. In that case you must see a Urologist. I cannot think of any reason to consider an estrogen inhibitor for you.
