Estrogen Causes Prostate Cancer

By Todd Lee M.D.

For many years doctors have believed that DHT or dihydrotestosterone caused prostate cancer and cancer treatment has been targeted at DHT almost exclusively.  
Recent research shows that it is not infact DHT, but instead is estrogen that causes the prostate cancer to grow.  
One study used undifferentiated progenitor cells to a prostate and exposed it to estrogen. These cells grew but did not form into actual prostate tissue. This indicates estrogen would grow a prostate tumor/cancer mass.
Another study showed that a prostate exposed to testosterone but no estrogen did not grow prostate cancer. A similar study was done with DHT but this showed minimal cancerous activity.  
The prostate has its own version of aromatase, the enzyme which makes testosterone into estrogen, and this version of aromatase is located mostly in the parts of the prostate most prone to developing cancer.
Additionally when prostate cancer metastasizes to other parts of the body, those “seeds” produce 30 times more estrogen than normal prostate tissue.  
Most interesting part was in mice which had the gene for aromatase eliminated, there was no cancer potential. Even bombarding these mice with testosterone and estrogen yielded no cancer.

H-DRL

By Todd Lee M.D.


H-Drol is the street name for 4-chloro-17a-methyl-androst-1,4- diene-3-17b-diol, AKA Halodrol 50 a prohormone to the Illegal steroid Turinabol. The name stems from the halogen gas chlorine at carbon number 4. as a 1,4 diene it behaves like an oral version of Boldenone AKA Equipoise: very mild. Although unlike EQ, there is no estrogen conversion. This means there is lean mass gains but no water bloat or other major side effects like the extra harsh M-Drol. It would be perfect but there is some liver toxicity from the 17 methylation like any oral steroid. Unfortunately it binds poorly to the androgen receptor, so it may not actually add anything when added to a stack with stronger steroids.

A legal and safe prohormone, H-DRL is available still and has not been banned yet.
