Drugs for hair loss and benign prostatic hyperplasia may result in loss of
libido, erectile dysfunction in men - Science Daily, 1/11/11 -
"5a-reductase inhibitors (5a-RIs), while improving
urinary symptoms in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and
possible hair loss prevention, produces significant adverse effects in some
individuals including loss of libido, erectile dysfunction (ED), ejaculatory
dysfunction and potential depression" - Note: That goes back
and forth. One study claimed that finasteride improved sex after after
six months of taking it. Regarding gynaecomastia, if you're taking low
dose letrozole to increase testosterone and to prevent aromatization it many
also help prevent gynaecomastia.

Aromatase Inhibition Offers Little Benefit, Possible Harm to Men With Lo...
- Medscape, 12/22/09 - "The inescapable conclusion from
these data is that the 50% increase in testosterone levels was trumped by the
much more modest 20% reduction in estradiol levels, leading to negative skeletal
effects of anastrozole therapy in aging men" - Note: I'm not sure
that thought this though thoroughly. Mortally in men is best when estrogen
is around 25pg/mL. I suspect that most have higher estrogen than that.

Short-term
aromatase inhibition: effects on glucose metabolism and serum leptin levels in
young and elderly men - Eur J Endocrinol. 2008 Dec 2 -
"Ten elderly and nine young healthy men were randomized
to receive letrozole 2.5 mg daily or placebo for 28 days in a crossover design.
Results: Both in young and elderly men, active treatment significantly increased
serum testosterone (+128 and +99%, resp.) and decreased estradiol levels (-41
and -62%, resp.). Fasting glucose and insulin levels decreased in young men
after active intervention (-7 and -37%, resp.) compared to placebo. Leptin
levels fell markedly in both age groups (-24 and -25%, resp.), while adiponectin
levels were not affected by the intervention. Lipid profile was slightly
impaired in both groups, with increasing LDL-cholesterol levels (+14%) in the
younger age group and 10% lower levels of ApoA1 in the elderly. A decline in
IGF-1 levels (-15%) was observed in the younger age group. No changes in weight
or BMI were observed in either young or old men" - See

Letrozole once a week normalizes serum testosterone in obesity-related male
hypogonadism - Eur J Endocrinol. 2008 May;158(5):741-7 -
"Isolated hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) is
frequently observed in severely obese men, probably as a result of increased
estradiol (E(2)) production and E(2)-mediated negative feedback on pituitary
LH secretion. Aromatase inhibitors can reverse this process ... treated with
2.5 mg letrozole once a week for 6 months ... Six weeks of treatment reduced
total E(2) from 123+/-11 to 58+/-7 pmol/l (P<0.001, mean+/-s.e.m.), and
increased serum LH from 4.4+/-0.6 to 11.1+/-1.5 U/l (P<0.001). Total
testosterone rose from 5.9+/-0.5 to 19.6+/-1.4 nmol/l (P<0.001), and free
testosterone from 163+/-13 to 604+/-50 pmol/l (P<0.001). Total testosterone
rose to within the normal range in all subjects, whereas free testosterone
rose to supraphysiological levels in 7 out of 12 men ... Letrozole 2.5 mg
once a week produced a sustained normalization of serum total testosterone
in obese men with IHH. However, free testosterone frequently rose to
supraphysiological levels. Therefore, a starting dose <2.5 mg once a week is
recommended" - See

treatment, letrozole lowered E2 by 46% in the young men (P = 0.002) and 62%
in the elderly men (P < 0.001). In both age groups, letrozole, but not
placebo, significantly increased LH levels (339 and 323% in the young and
the elderly, respectively) and T (146 and 99%, respectively) (P value of
young vs. elderly was not significant). Under letrozole, peak LH response to GnRH was 152 and 52% increase from baseline in young and older men,
respectively"

Letrozole normalizes serum testosterone in severely obese men with
hypogonadotropic hypogonadism - Diabetes Obes Metab. 2005 May;7(3):211-5
- "Six weeks of treatment decreased
serum estradiol from 120 +/- 20 to 70 +/- 9 pmol/l (p = 0.006). None of the
subjects developed an estradiol level of less than 40 pmol/l. LH increased
from 4.5 +/- 0.8 to 14.8 +/- 2.3 U/l (p < 0.001). Total testosterone rose
from 7.5 +/- 1.0 to 23.8 +/- 3.0 nmol/l (p < 0.001) without a concomitant
change in sex hormone-binding globulin level. Those treated with Letrozole
17.5 mg per week had an excessive LH response" - Note: A
half tablet per day would be 8.75 mg/week. I believe 40 pmol/l of
estradiol is
11.54
pg/mL and the normal value for men is
10 to 52 pg/mL (Quest
says
10 to 50).
The way I read that, testosterone tripled. See

caused a corresponding decrease of 84.3%, 87.8% and 98.0%, respectively. The

Joint Supplements for
Aromatase Inhibitor Adverse Effects - Medscape, 11/18/11 -
"Aromatase inhibitors are widely used in the
treatment of breast cancer but are associated with significant
musculoskeletal adverse effects, including joint pain and stiffness ... We
know that these symptoms are unresponsive to conventional pain medication
and often lead to low adherence to aromatase inhibitor therapy ... The
cohort consisted of postmenopausal breast cancer patents with stage I to III
disease who had been on aromatase therapy for at least 3 months, who
reported a pain rating of 4 or higher on a 10-point visual analog scale, and
whose pain worsened after initiating treatment with aromatase inhibitors if
they had preexisting osteoarthritis ... Participants took 1500 mg/day of
glucosamine and 1200 mg/day of chondroitin, and were evaluated every 6 weeks
at the clinic ... There was a drop in pain and stiffness in the hips and
knees at 12 and 24 weeks, as well as improvement in function. "This affected
about 50% of the women," she explained. "We saw a very similar pattern
looking at the hands and the wrist. We saw similar results with the Brief
Pain/Stiffness Inventory — with about 35% to 50% of women."" - See

Breast Cancer Survival: Femara Better Than Tamoxifen - WebMD, 10/21/11 -
"At an average follow-up of more than eight years,

from their breast cancer compared to postmenopausal women who too"

Aromatase inhibitor letrozole guards against breast cancer relapse for up to
8 years, study finds
- Science Daily, 9/25/11
Toxicity of aromatase inhibitors may explain lack of overall survival
improvement - Science Daily, 8/22/11 - "compared
to tamoxifen, longer use of AIs was
associated with increased heart disease and bone fractures, but lower rates
of blood clots and cancer of the womb. There were no differences in the risk
of stroke or other types of cancer. Furthermore, use of AIs for 2-3 years
after initial treatment with tamoxifen was associated with a lower risk of
death unrelated to breast cancer compared to the use of either AIs or
tamoxifen alone. The authors therefore concluded that the toxicity of AIs
when used for longer periods of treatment may explain the lack of overall
survival benefit while still having a positive effect on breast cancer
recurrence"
Vitamin
D relieves joint, muscle pain for breast cancer patients - Science Daily,
7/26/11 - "Rastelli's group recruited 60 patients who reported pain and
discomfort associated with anastrozole, one of three FDA-approved aromatase
inhibitors. The patients they studied also had low vitamin D levels. Half the
group was randomly assigned to receive the recommended daily dose of vitamin D
(400 international units) plus a 50,000-unit vitamin D capsule once a week. The
other half received the daily dose of 400 units of vitamin D plus a weekly
placebo. All subjects received 1,000 milligrams of calcium daily throughout the
study ... patients receiving high-dose vitamin D every week reported
significantly less musculoskeletal pain and also were less likely to experience
pain that interfered with daily living" - See
vitamin D products at iHerb.
Exemestane reduces breast cancer in high-risk women, researchers show -
Science Daily, 6/4/11 - "The study showed that in postmenopausal women at
increased risk of breast cancer, but who have not previously been diagnosed with
breast cancer, the aromatase inhibitor called Aromasin, made by Pfizer, reduces
this risk by 65 percent compared with placebo" - Note: If you go the the
abstract is says "Funded by Pfizer and others" and like it says, Aromasin
(exemestane) is made by Pfizer. I've always thought of Aromasin
(exemestane) as being cheaper and less effective than Femara (letrozole) which
is made by Novartis. A good study would have included Femara.
