It is my understanding that Armstrong had his testicles removed as a
result of his cancer. *That (I presume) would reduce his natural
production of the steroid testosterone. *Thus, he should have the
medical right to replace the missing testosterone.


I have never heard this discussed.
Does anybody here *know* anything about this?


It is public knowledge that he had *one* testicle removed. We must assume
the remaining testicle is still functional. Thus there would be no need
for testosterone replacement therapy.
