Testosterone

Has anyone had any issues taking a Testosterone booster while on Gleevec? Asking for a friend. 😉

Hi I am on imatinib 400mg for cml, also had testicular cancer as well. I am know using testogel daily with no adverse effects. Plus other mens for other conditions
Hope it helps

I too had testicular cancer, and am on Nebido injections every 12 weeks for testosterone. Never had a problem with it, other than convincing the doctors that one liver function test every  6 months by one of them is enough for both. 

I believe that the radiotherapy I had in the late 1987 for the testicular cancer is most likely the root cause of my CML diagnosed in 2007. 

Hi 

I was diagnosed with very low testosterone some 15 months ago - I am on Gleevec  400 mg per day  

I started TRT therapy some 3 months ago - 40 mg per day - I have had my first bloods which are ok but still the T level is low . 

I checked all this out with my consultant at Hammersmith hospital and no adverse affects to date

I had similar issues and found out that low testosterone was part of the problem after starting treatment. I went through blood tests first, and my doctor eventually prescribed TRT. I’ve been using products from balkanpharma with decent results so far—levels are stable and energy's better. Just make sure your blood work supports it and you're working closely with a doc who knows what they’re doing.
