What Is The Prognosis For A Vasoconstriction In The Testes?

Posted on Fri, 4 Sep 2015
Question: Hello, Was just wondering - if you have a vasoconstriction to the testes- what could happen? Worst case, testicular cancer? If there, is not enough blood flowing to the germ cells, could they become malignant ? If yes, how? Not enough oxygen to the cells? I dont understand. Thanks!

Can 1,3 Dimethylamylamine supplements cause thyroid problems, in other words Hypothyroidism?

Brief Answer:
there is no relation with vasoconstriction

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

vasoconstriction is a physiologic function of the blood vessels and has nothing to do with cancer. Vasoconstriction is not supposed to prevent normal oxygenation either. It is supposed to reduce blood flow but not to the point of no oxygenation (under normal circumstances).
But even if oxygenation was reduced, this could only lead to necrosis (cell death) and not to cancer.

I hope I've clarified the issue to you!

Thank you. And what about calcifications? How do they evolve?

Brief Answer:
let me explain

Detailed Answer:
You're welcome!

First of all, about DMAA. DMAA is not considered safe but not regarding its actions the thyroid but on the cardiovascular system, particularly the potential for causing reduced oxygenation and arrhythmias.

Calcifications may be caused by inflammatory conditions or tumors. For example an old infection or inflammation in the liver is likely to be calcified and be found incidentally while searching for something else. The clinical significance of calcifications may vary depending on the clinical context.
