Excessive androgen exposure and risk of malignancies: A cohort study

Discussion and conclusionMale androgen users did not face an increased short-term risk of cancer, neither overall nor related to prostate or breast cancer. Our study indicates that the absolute risk of malignancies in androgen users is comparable to that in the background population. However, we cannot exclude androgens as a cancer risk factor due to the limited sample size, relatively short follow-up period, and subject age.
