Anti-androgens are only risky if you are not taking some form of estrogen.
The harmful thing is having really low levels of all sex hormones, so if you get rid of your testosterone without raising your estrogen, you are in trouble.
If your blood chemistry is in the female range you should be fine. After all, females aren't at a higher risk for dementia as far as I know.
This study was conducted on people who were taking anti androgens for other health reasons. They were not on estrogen of any kind.
Yeah, you did point out the possibility of low testosterone to be a possible cause. I'd say that's very likely.
My gender doctor said that the trick is to lower active DHT and T. But once you do that, you have to raise E to about 200. Otherwise you do risk dementia as well as osteoporosis and other maladies.
