Yes but Dexamethasone will get the blame for it.Ebenezer said:Heat stroke probably already wiped him out for a while anyway on live sperm.
M.Magis said:There are studies published online showing the effects on bulls. Never seen testicular shrinkage mentioned, so not sure why thats a concern? But all studies involved a LOT more than a single 4mg dose. Like mentioned, the heat stroke would be a far bigger concern.

Yes, I'm quite aware of that. That's why I didn't ask about that. Thanks

Oh well, we will have to be more specific about your questions in future, take note everyone. You seem to know everything else.Stephanie said:M.Magis said:That was specifically what you asked. Post #6.Stephanie said:Yes, I'm quite aware of that. That's why I didn't ask about that. Thanks
I am aware of the issues that stem from fevers. I was told elsewhere that one dose could shrink his boys. Inquiring about the steroids only.
Thanks
