What are the consequences of men taking diethylstilbestrol?

Ingestion of diethylstilbestrol in men may cause endocrine system disorders. Diethylstilbestrol is an exogenous estrogen that may affect normal hormone balance when ingested by men, causing adverse reactions such as breast development, loss of sexual desire, and testicular atrophy. In addition, long-term or high-dose intake of diethylstilbestrol may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

After men ingest diethylstilbestrol, they may experience a series of symptoms, including but not limited to breast enlargement, body hair loss, weight gain, decreased sexual function, etc. The occurrence of these symptoms is related to the dose ingested, individual differences and the time of ingestion. For men who have already developed symptoms, it is recommended to seek medical treatment in time for necessary examination and treatment.

Regarding the intake of diethylstilbestrol, it is recommended that men avoid contact with and ingestion of estrogen-containing substances in daily life. If you need to use estrogen-containing drugs due to a disease, you should use the drugs rationally under the guidance of a doctor, strictly follow the doctor's instructions, and avoid blind use of drugs on your own.
