  1. I suppose since testosterone increases red blood cell production ..
    then the heart failure in these patients could very well be caused by
    the testosterone .. treatment / increased red blood cell production ..
    which was 'diagnosed' as .. "needed" .. BECAUSE .. the body shut it
    down .. to keep itself from .. dying .. of .. ? .. increased red blood
    cell production..

    So 'they' replace it .. and .. kill .. you ..

    Summary
    Iron-overload alone does not seem to explain the pathogenesis of heart
    failure (HF) associated with beta-thalassemia major (BTM). Further
    contributing factors i.e. myocarditis, HLA haplotypes are being
    claimed to play important roles in the development of HF especially in
    case of predominantly left-sided involvements. Here we report a case
    of BTM plus secondary hemochromatosis, in whom the testosteron
    replacement therapy was temporally associated with initiation and
    aggrevation of HF. We propose that gonadal replacement therapy can be
    considered as a potential contributing factor to the heterogenous and
    multifactorial nature of BTM-associated HF.
