Thread: PE vs testosterone vs dht?
- 06-01-2011 #61
From what I've read in various studies, hypogonadism (reduced testicular function/reduced circulating androgens) causes penile atrophy.
So reducing androgens can shrink the penis, restoring androgens can restore penis size but supplementing androgens to supraphysiological levels does not seem to result in significant growth above normal size. There are pieces of the puzzle that need to be found and implemented such as growth factors involved in the healing process and androgen receptor density and sensitivity.
I've read of cases of pituitary tumors in adult women causing increases in gonadotropic releasing hormones resulting in significant clitoral growth. Female bodybuilders usually develope huge clitoral development due to androgen usesage. The clitoris is very similar in structure to the penis but appears to be much more sensitive to androgen stimulation. So it appears in adult women that supraphysiological androgen levels will stimulate genital growth, overriding possible genetic control without exercising the clitoris, although some women do pump to achieve greater size.

I'll throw in my two cents here. I just started PE this week but:
I started on Finesteride over 10 years ago, back when it was off label and I had to cut up prostate pills with a razor. I was about 20 at the time and starting to lose a patch in front. That stopped. It was pretty tiny mostly noticeable if I cut my hair really short or it got wet. I actually recently turned to monoxodil to restore it, which was kinda a pre-cursor to PE.
I've lifted a lot of weights in the past, when I did so I quickly acquire an increased libido and mild acne. The acne would fade as my body adjusted. And put on muscle well. Generally people say I look a lot younger than my age.
I dunno if it effected my penis, but I'll tell you having a full head of hair and looking younger in your early thirties when you're not married is nice. I date girls in their mid twenties. Shrug. Hair. I recommend it.2011/6/01: NBPEL 5 EG 5 FL 2.5 FG 4

Ahhh...hair. I always feel I'm stuck between two opposing worlds. Being folliclly challenged and always trying to regrow my hairline and increasing androgens to maintain virility and enhance the ole penis.
I wonder what would happen if I started rubbing the Andractim right into my scalp?
