Anal sex after LDR brachy
Am posting because I've seen various posts and questions about anal sex after radiotherapy (and prostatectomy), some of which were positive experiences, others not. I think it's an important issue to relay experiences about. I had LDR brachytherapy four days into the new year, and wrote all about it

DHEA and Pregnenolone
A recent visit to a MD in general practice who was interested in administering injections of Testosterone decided to wait and prescribed DHEA and Pregnenolone and MSM instead. His blood test did show these to be low. Also, in this blood test it showed the hormon estrogen to be low. I am not sure I want

Triplet Systemic Therapy for low volume mCSPC
Hi everyone, first a big thanks to this group for all the input. I’m incredibly grateful for tons of input, the latest PSMA scans, and excellent medical advice. Passing this along for anyone else on this path. The very recent ARASENS trial results helped me finalize treatment plans for low volume

Question about weight lifting while on anti testosterone therapy.
I was placed of abiraterone and ADT 6 months ago. I am an avid exerciser so I have not experienced any fatigue but I think I was noticing mild weakness. I decided to start weight lifting. My question is: Do I expect to get stronger or just slow the deterioration.

The Starting Dose of Levothyroxine in Primary Hypothyroidism Treatment
This paper compared patients started on a calculated full replacement dose of levothyroxine against starting at 25 micrograms and incrementing every four weeks. Since this paper - and others - the idea of starting on full replacement dose has permeated the guidelines in several countries. Unfortunately

Second Guessing Surgery Decision
I'm posting this in the Advanced PCa forum as this involves potentially assuming I'm going to need to deal with Advanced Prostate Cancer. The problem with treatment decisions is no one ever knows at your early stage if you have micrometastases outside your prostate. My biopsy results, 2 months ago

I HAVE HUNG UP MY RUNNING SHOES
It is approaching nine years since I discovered C25k and subsequently this forum and the combination of the two changed my life in more positive ways than I could ever imagine. From a 57 year old who thought that running might be a lesser necessary evil than heading off to the gym to maintain stamina

Four Year Transdermal Estradiol Update
Well, it's been four years since I started applying transdermal estradiol gel (tE2) as my mono-therapy and I'm quite happy with the results. My SOLE side effect is some degree of gynecomastia which is a 'small price to pay to keep the PC at bay'! Just a brief history, and yet another 'boob' pic (taken

Hormone treatments- pro's and con's?

Cognitive Impairment from ADT and Advanced AR Drugs
Good analysis of database to estimate the neurotoxicity of hormonal treatments for PC. Takeaways 1) Yes they do cause cognitive impairment. And 2) Abiraterone +p is the only exception, reducing cognitive impairment in this analysis. Neurocognitive impairment associated with traditional and novel androgen

The importance of radiotherapy dose escalation and long-term ADT for success
Both increase "cure rates" in high risk and intermediate risk patients (at least "unfavorable intermediate risk" patients). https://www.prostatecancer.news/2022/04/the-importance-of-radiotherapy-dose.html

PSA rising
My husband has aggressive prostate cancer. He was diagnosed 9/20/2019. Gleason score 9. Because he is 93 he is only treated with ADT. His PSA was 100.4 when he started treatment. He had a TURP and found the cancer. My question is can he start having side effects after being on ADT for 2 years.

Testosterone injections for prostate cancer
It seems there is two ways this is being done. One is testosterone only, no adt and one way testosterone is the shot all by itself. I have two doctors willing to give me the T but there is no discussion of doing BAT. BAT is ADT alternating with testosterone. Today I visit the OC willing to do this. Presently

Life left to live?
I know we have talked about this subject before. I am an Australian and I appreciate this forum’s advice. I was told I was metastatic in October 2021. I had a PSMA pet scan which pointed out I had a infected Lymph node just outside my Prostate bed area. I started Lucian (spelt differently in Australia

Hormone treatment
There are so many helpful people on here to whom we have cause to be grateful, for their many suggestions. In particular we owe a great deal to Joanna Lane, who set us on cause for the hormone treatment my husband now has. If you can, read her book, "Mother of a Suicide". Don't be put off by the title

Orchiectomy or ADT
I'm 80 years old with ED since my prostatectomy. Both surgery an radiation have failed to cure my PC so, I find myself at a fork in the road. Do I have an Orchiectomy or use ADT medications. from what I have read, Orchiectomy has shown to have better result than ADT in terms of long term survival plus
