Benefits of Rexigo Tablet
In Treatment of Advanced Prostate cancer
Prostate gland is a small walnut-sized gland that produces a fluid called seminal fluid that nourishes and transports sperms in males. The most common symptom of prostate cancer is difficulty with urination, but sometimes there are no symptoms at all. Rexigo 120mg Tablet suppresses the production of testosterone, a hormone that fuels the growth of prostate cancer cells.
