Aims: We have previously shown that orchidectomy (ORX) in adult mice induces hypercalciuria and upregulation of renal Ca2+ and PO43− transporters, but also bone loss already after 2 weeks. Pretreatment with risedronate inhibited bone resorption and hypercalciuria but confirmed the upregulation of renal Ca2+ and PO43− transporters, suggesting bone-independent renal effects of androgens. We hypothesize...

Objective: Long-term androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) negatively influences bone. The short-term effects on bone and mineral homeostasis are less known. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the early effects of ADT on calcium/phosphate homeostasis and bone turnover.Design: Prospective cohort study.Methods: Eugonadal adult male sex offenders, who were referred for ADT to the endocrine outpatient clinic, received cyproterone acetate....
