Interactions between Dehydroepiandrosterone and Testamone-100

The dehydroepiandrosterone (prasterone) in dehydroepiandrosterone has a major potential interaction with Abnormal Uterine Bleeding.

The use of estrogens is contraindicated in patients with undiagnosed, abnormal vaginal bleeding. Prolonged (greater than 1 year), unopposed estrogen use (i.e. estrogen without concomitant progestin therapy) has been associated with a significant, dose-related risk of endometrial carcinoma. The risk may be offset substantially by the addition of a progestin but may not be completely abolished. Prior to initiating estrogen therapy, appropriate diagnostic tests should be performed in patients with abnormal vaginal bleeding to rule out endometrial malignancy. The same applies if recurrent or persistent bleeding develops during estrogen therapy.

The testosterone in Testamone-100 has a major potential interaction with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.

The use of androgenic anabolic steroids is contraindicated for male patients with carcinoma of the breast or prostate. Circulating androgens can be converted in peripheral tissues to estrogens and dihydrotestosterone, which may act as promoters of tumor growth in the breast and prostate, respectively. Likewise, androgenic agents may cause enlargement of the prostate and should be used cautiously in patients with or predisposed to prostatic hypertrophy.

The testosterone in Testamone-100 has a major potential interaction with Bleeding Disorder.

Androgenic anabolic steroids may cause suppression of clotting factors II, V, VII, and X, and an increase in prothrombin time. Androgen therapy should be administered cautiously in patients with bleeding disorders.

The testosterone in Testamone-100 has a major potential interaction with Breast Cancer.

When treated with androgenic anabolic steroids, patients with metastatic breast cancer may develop hypercalcemia due to osteolysis. Frequent determination of urine and serum calcium levels is recommended during therapy with androgenic agents. If hypercalcemia occurs, therapy should be stopped. The development of hypercalcemia may indicate progression of metastases to the bone.

The testosterone in Testamone-100 has a major potential interaction with Breast Cancer, Male.

The use of androgenic anabolic steroids is contraindicated for male patients with carcinoma of the breast or prostate. Circulating androgens can be converted in peripheral tissues to estrogens and dihydrotestosterone, which may act as promoters of tumor growth in the breast and prostate, respectively. Likewise, androgenic agents may cause enlargement of the prostate and should be used cautiously in patients with or predisposed to prostatic hypertrophy.

The dehydroepiandrosterone (prasterone) in dehydroepiandrosterone has a major potential interaction with Cerebral Vascular Disorder.

The use of estrogens is considered by manufacturers and some authorities to be contraindicated in patients with active thrombotic, thromboembolic, or thrombophilic disorders. The use of estrogen-containing oral contraceptives is additionally deemed contraindicated in patients with a history of such disorders and/or current cerebrovascular or coronary artery disease. Females with a history of migraines with aura are at an increased risk for stroke and this stroke risk may be further increased in females who have migraines with aura with use of combination oral contraceptives. Hypercoagulability and changes in various clotting factors and blood components have been observed in women receiving estrogen therapy. Known preexisting risk factors for increased thromboembolic or cardiovascular events include smoking, especially over age of 35; hypertension; hyperlipidemia; obesity; diabetes; age over 40; and lupus. Therapy with estrogens should be administered cautiously in the lowest effective dosage and only after careful consideration of risks and benefits. Estrogens should be avoided in patients with a history of thrombotic and thromboembolic disorders associated with estrogen use, except when used in the treatment of metastatic breast or prostatic malignancy.

The testosterone in Testamone-100 has a moderate potential interaction with Diabetes Mellitus.

When androgenic anabolic steroids are used in patients with thyroid disorders, clinicians should be aware that these agents may affect thyroid function tests. Specifically, thyroid-binding globulin levels may be decreased, resulting in lower total T4 serum levels and increased resin uptake of T3 and T4. Free thyroid hormone levels remain unchanged, however.

The use of androgenic anabolic steroids may be associated with development of cholestatic hepatitis and jaundice. Other, more serious hepatotoxicities such as peliosis hepatis and hepatocellular neoplasms are rare but may occur with prolonged use or high dosages. These latter toxicities may be fatal and often not recognized until they become life-threatening. Patients with preexisting liver diseases should be monitored more closely during therapy with anabolic steroids if they are used.
