Hi,

I think I have seen the comment somewhere here that 'orchiectomy has the same effect as HT but without the man boobs' (or something like that).

Just wondering if that was anecdotal experience or is definite/documented.

Thanks

I didn't post that comment but moobs are more likely with bicalutimide or stilboestrol than with hormone therapies such as Prostap or Zoladex. Orchiectomy is more similar to zoladex / prostap than to bical or stilboestrol.
