A couple months ago I was invited to speak before the Anderson School of Business at UCLA about entrepreneurship, and I was able to talk about the diversity experienced in the multiple careers I’ve held since receiving my Doctor of Medicine degree from the Medical College of Virginia. So from time to time I’ll share some of these personal...
A recent publication in the New England Journal of Medicine shows that Avodart (dutasteride) reduces the risk of prostate cancer along the same lines as finasteride did in earlier studies. The study also shows that in those men on Avodart, there was an increased incidence of heart failure. Here’s a snippet from the Associated Press article...

I’m a healthy 62 yr old caucasion male. Throughout my life time I have enjoyed a full head of hair. Over the past month to two months, I have noticed significant hair loss in the front of my leading to baldness. I am concern for the abruptness that I started losing my hair.

My bother-in-law is one of the most brilliant men I have ever known. I do not mean the Einstein type, but rather, he’s incredibly practical, creative, and clever. He ran a dairy farm passed down from his father in Ireland’s lush countryside, and gave me the opportunity to experience farming firsthand. Enthralled with his inventiveness...
Doctor, There is an established correlation between (early onset) androgenic alopecia and both cardiovascular disease and prostate cancer. Now interestingly, Propecia (more than likely) reduces the risk of prostate cancer. Since Propecia seems helpful against hair loss and against prostate cancer, could it also be helpful against the third correlate:...
Greetings Dr. Rassman, I am a very happy patient of yours. (Background: I’ve had two procedures and am taking Propecia.) I wanted to pass along the information below. Perhaps it would be useful for your blog. I was flying the other day, and in the airline magazine, there was an article on preventing cancer that mentioned finasteride: “...
Green tea is made from the dried leaves of the tea plant (camellia sinensis), whereas black tea is made from leaves of the same plant that have gone through a fermentation process before being dried. Green tea is rich in catechins, which are known to have anti-oxidant properties and it is, therefore, often claimed to help prevent cancer. In addition,...
