I thought steroids shrank the testicles

...Yup. Body counteracts all the extra test by reducing the natural output, this the side effect.
But, there are other meds that counter that, I believe a female fertility drug, so there shouldn’t be any shrinkage.

But, I doubt Tiger is taking steroids. Guessing something like HGH, with an advanced masking agent.

We’ve seen this story before, with BALCO, Clemons, A-Rod, etc. Why does Tiger need a foreign Dr. to come to his home for some special treatment? Couldn’t be done anywhere else? Mayo? That hospital he visited twice a couple of weeks ago?

Clomid. Functions as an estrogen blocker in men, and also elevates production of follicle stimulating hormone and leutenizing hormone, which leads to an increase in natural testosterone production. It's sometimes prescribed to men with fertility problems as well.
