Yes, I waited for three years of 0 psas before asking for T. I was getting so depressed, lethargic, brain fog, early osteoporosis, and of course no libido. My internist said no, once you have prostate cancer you can never have T. I didn't like that answer to I went to my operating uro who said yes, then a local uro who said yes, and finally a local endo who actually recommended it. I was a little scared at first, but I hated the way I felt. Now that my total T has gone from 176 to 300 (240-900 scale) and my free T has gone from 30 to 60 (25-100 scale) I feel much better, even though the numbers haven't really climbed that much. My bone scan has reversed to normal, my depression is much less, my brain fog is gone altogether, I'm back to thinking normally, and my libidio is a little better. So on a scale of 1-10 I'd give it a 4, and my psa is still 0. I know the theoretical risk of taking T is there but I was feeling so bad before, I had to do something.
