  • No harvesting e-mail addresses for Spam;
  • No insults or flaming - be polite and respectful at all times and understand that there may be a variety of points of view, all of which may have some validity;
  • Opinions are OK, but please provide as much factual evidence as possible for any assertions that you are making

Failure to abide by these simple rules will result in the immediate and permanent suspension of your posting privileges.

Re: Blood Clot Poll

Charlie,

The only time I have seen clots (thrombosis) mentioned in connection with prostate cancer is when men are having ADT (Androgen Deprivation Therapy) which includes DES (diethylstilbestrol) or other estrogen compounds. For this reason, men treated with these compounds are usually dosed with coumadin/Warfarin to redeuce the chance of thrombosis.

PC-Spes was said to include estrogen and there are some doubts about the ‘copy-cap’ compounds that have filled the gap created by the banning of PC-Spes, such as PC-Hope and Prostasol.

All the best
