So there are some receptors left. Maybe overloading them with DHT would produce growth like in puberty. Maybe the limiting factor in adult men is not a lack of DHT but a lack of androgen receptors or maybe the receptors are downregulated and could potentially be upregulated. I havent read the full article. Help me out here.
I’m undecided as to whether I’m going to use the other three tubes I bought. There are a lot of people saying that Andractim does nothing and I think the few people that say it works may be trying to sell it.
Oh, I read that about the receptors, london100.
What you’re setting forth are a lot of suppositions and ‘maybes’, without any particular reasoning or a coherent theory behind them.
“Help me out here”? This is your theory, not mine, london100. I don’t think it’s going to work.
And did you actually read your second citation?
Quote
There is considerable evidence to suggest that progression of prostate cancers to castration-resistant is due to inappropriate activation of the androgen receptor (AR) and hence, the AR is a good target for the treatment of this disease. In this study we used two approaches to investigate AR activation and inhibition.
And you’re wondering “Is there a chemical that could be used to upregulate ARs and allow this stuff to work?”
Uh… maybe inappropriate activation of the androgen receptor has some degree of danger associated with it? I’m just saying…

If you don’t have time to look into all that stuff properly, you can’t make an informed decision about what you are doing to your body. I don’t think that is a good idea, personally.
