Jose Canseco didn’t agree to provide a urine sample for steroid testing in Mexican Baseball League

Jose Canseco refused to submit to a urine analysis for steroids, when he tried to return to the Mexican Baseball League. It was earlier claimed that the “Tigres de Quintana” of Cancun agreed to give him the second chance and invited him to play.
This baseball player refused to submit to steroid testing that had to be conducted by officers of the Mexico’s National Commission for Physical Culture and Sport (CONADE). CONADE is government agency that manages Olympic sports in Mexico.
The CEO of the “Tigres de Quintana”  Cuauhtemoc Rodriguez Meza stated that Jose Canseco would not be allowed to play for the team because he had admitted that he used prohibited medicines.
Jose Canseco acknowledged that he was on testosterone replacement therapy under supervision of a physician in the US. He mentioned that he was receiving TRT since 2008. This player was not surprised by the requirement to submit to urine sample for steroids. He wrote on his Twitter account last month that the Minor League Baseball would perform testing for banned medications.
It is known that  an athlete is allowed to apply steroids for TRT and participate in competitions, if he/she has obtained a therapeutic use exemption (TUE). A TUE allows usage of banned products, if it is supported by medical conditions.
It is evident that Jose Canseco has prescription from his physician that indicates about his condition which requires being TRT. But he hasn’t obtained a TUE for usage of testosterone.
Canseco has openly admitted that he had a prescription from his doctor to administer testosterone as a part of testosterone replacement therapy. He described about  this condition in a documentary in 2008. He noted that he discontinued utilizing illegal steroids and had hypogonadism that was provoked by steroids. Then his doctor recommended him taking a testosterone gel in order to escape from negative effects of steroids.
You observe that Jose Canseco’s usage of steroids is justified because he has medical support for usage. But since he hasn’t got a TUE, it is not clear whether he would join the team that has testing for steroids.
The CEO of “Tigres de Quintana” mentioned that he had known that Canseco was on TRT but he invited him to play, just getting a TUE.
