peptides and growths of tumor or cyst

[bigman1]

I know there is some studies to show if you have a tumor that any steroid or peptide may increase the rate it grows but will they do the same for a cyst? When I talk about a cyst I mean one on the liver or kidney etc....

Good question. I have a cyst on my forehead and the size has not gotten any bigger.

Hey Jar, thanks for the bright response... as I stated I know there are studies for the tumors but I have not seen any for cysts. If you know about a thread about my questions on cysts then please post it. Thanks

Nobody can answer this. The term "cyst" is overly broad and tells us very little. Usually if a cyst has the potential to become cancerous it is removed. Only a radiologist looking at images or a biopsy interpreted by doctors can make that determination.

Ask your doctor about it and specifically ask if it is the type of cyst that could become cancerous and if so how ...and if not, why not?

That will give you highly specific information upon which you can make a decision on how to conduct your lifestyle.
