Default Does/Can flutamide and/or spiro increase testosterone?

I was reading some post on this site and read that sometimes flutomide and/or spiro can actually increase testosterone? Anybody know how these drugs work on the hormones? I thought they lowered androgens?

i've never heard of that, but i HAVE heard of propecia increasing T because it causes you to convert less T to DHT, which means you will have more T but what is important is FREE T.
