How Long after Radical Prostatectomy do you wait before Radiation

[Shorehousejam]

Had Radical Prostatectomy with limited lymph node removal ( 8 nodes )

March 15th how long before I start radiation do I wait?

Some recommend using ADT for about 7 months while waiting for tissues to recover after prostatectomy. That will prevent progression, and might be especially a good idea after PLND.

waited almost a year. Started Lupron/Abi after 6 months and then radiation. Had stopped leaking but radiation caused it to start back.

About 6 months on average if your on adt to allow for healing ❤️‍🩹 while keeping it in check w the adt. I had pretty good results w the ☢️, only at the seventh week started to have some bowel pain n irritation that cleared up a week later. A little fatigue first cpl weeks, had to take naps a cpl times but overall not bad…
