After 25 years of study, the results of the Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial are in, and they conclude that finasteride reduces men&#8217;s prostate cancer risk and does not increase the risk of a more aggressive form of the disease. Here\u2019s what the study had to say.<\/p>\n<h3>Finasteride Does Not Cause Cancer<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/medicalxpress.com\/news\/2018-05-finasteride-prostate-cancer-death.html\">The Prostate Cancer Prevention Trial<\/a> has been in progress for 25-years. The study finally closed, the data meticulously analyzed, and the results are written about in scientific journals.<\/p>\n<p>The news is good: finasteride, a hormone-blocking medication, is an effective tool to reduce men\u2019s chances of getting prostate cancer, without increasing the risk of dying from the disease. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.renalandurologynews.com\/prostate-cancer\/long-term-data-show-finasteride-does-not-up-risk-of-high-grade-prostate-cancer\/article\/772759\/\">One doctor at the University of Chicago said<\/a>, \u201cClinicians should feel comfortable prescribing finasteride to a man with a large prostate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Some initial studies showed that finasteride may actually cause a more aggressive form of prostate cancer. The results of the 25-year study showed that is not the case. This is particularly important because prostate cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in men today.<\/p>\n<p>Treatment of prostate cancer has serious side effects such as urinary incontinence and erectile dysfunction (ED). While Viagra can help with ED, cancer is serious, so this confirms that finasteride can help reduce prostate cancer is very good news indeed.<\/p>\n<p>For men seeking to stop the effects of aging, tools like finasteride and Viagra for ED are available, safe, safe and effective.
