Some final words on androgens

As androgens, and especially testosterone, are important for male health they are an interesting field of research. Unfortunately the research is scant on the relation between androgens and CPPS. But it is definitively a good idea to try to minimize androgen disruption by trying to get enough sleep. Especially due to the fact that nocturia disrupts sleep in CPPS. A possible solution could be very small doses of desmopressin, to see if sleep improves leading to improved wellbeing and vigour. It would also be interesting to research thyroid and gonadal-pituitary function.
