The Dr. Geo Prostate Podcast

Does Testosterone Fuel or Protect Against Prostate Cancer? with Dr. Mohit Khera


Listen Later

In this episode of the Dr. Geo Prostate Podcast, Dr. Geo welcomes Dr. Mohit Khera, a globally recognized leader in men’s health, Professor of Urology and Director of the Executive Health Program at Baylor College of Medicine. With over 160 peer-reviewed publications and decades of clinical experience in testosterone therapy, male infertility, and prostate health, Dr. Khera shares cutting-edge insights on testosterone replacement therapy (TRT), including the rise of oral testosterone like Kyzatrex, and the evolving understanding of testosterone’s relationship to prostate cancer.

Whether you’re considering TRT, recovering from prostate cancer, or supporting a loved one’s health journey, this conversation brings clarity to one of men’s most pressing health topics.

What You’ll Learn:

  • The 4 C’s framework to determine the best TRT option:
  • Cost, Compliance, Convenience, Concentration
  • Why oral testosterone (Kyzatrex, Tlando, Jatenzo) is gaining traction—and what makes them different
  • How Kyzatrex may help preserve fertility by reducing gonadotropin suppression
  • What the TRAVERSE trial revealed about TRT and cardiovascular safety
  • Why low testosterone may be linked to more aggressive prostate cancer
  • What the latest science says about BAT (Bipolar Androgen Therapy) for advanced prostate cancer
  • The truth about testosterone’s impact on BPH and urinary symptoms
  • Why total testosterone isn't enough—labs like SHBG, DHT, estradiol, and free testosterone matter

Key Insights:

  • TRT doesn’t cause prostate cancer — and may even have protective effects in some men.
  • Testosterone is the best barometer of male health—predicting cardiovascular risk, mood, bone density, and more.
  • BAT (Bipolar Androgen Therapy) is showing promise in treating advanced prostate cancer in specific scenarios.
  • Avoid unnecessary aromatase inhibitors and DHT blockers unless clinically indicated.
