A member asked:

Please explain how letrazole helps men with low testosterone. is this better than directly using a testosterone supplement?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Letrazole: Is an aromatase inhibitor for women with breast cancer. It is not approved for use in men. There are isolated reports of it increasing testosterone in elderly men, but it has potential side effects. It is not for recreational use, but then either is testosterone. If you are truly testosterone deficient, talk w/your doctor, .
