sarms and locally advanced prostate cancer.

[Radars]

hi,I finished treatment in 2016 psa now 0.03 seminal vessicles involved, and my testosterone has not recovered and now I have been diagnosed with osteoporosis, I have asked for some trt but urologist said not a good idea as there might be some sleeping cancer cells, I am only 8st a walking skeleton, I have just started some creatine to see if that helps, I have been reading regarding sarms and wandered if that would be safe for me, any help please.

SARMs weakly activate the prostate androgen receptors. Still, you need to monitor your PSA and scans to make sure bad things are happening.

The big benefit is that they activate the skeletal muscle ARs 10x-90x as much as the prostate ARs.

A 3-5 mg/day dose of Rad-140 seems to work well at increasing muscle mass. Please monitor your PSA and scans and make sure your oncologist knows what you are doing (but with any therapy, remember that it is your life and body and not theirs).

thanks, I have a psa check every 6 months, how often do you need to have scans it's hard to get anything nowadays, I had a zoledronic acid infusion in April to help my osteoporosis, so sarms might also help.

[PCaWarrior in reply to Radars]

I have a scan every 3-12 months. My insurance sucks for most things but is great with the scans and genetic tests.

[Radars in reply to PCaWarrior]

I am in the uk it's hard to get an appointment with gp or anyone.

I suggest you get a bone density scan (ie DEXA). If you are osteoporetic on top of low weight, exercise might be dangerous. Exercise with taurine, HMB, and creatine and a good diet if your bones are OK.

[Radars in reply to Derf4223]

I have had a dexa scan recently-2.5 -4.1lumbar spine. Femoral neck is0.593,vfa shows superior end-plate deformity at t12, it's not good, but I get by ok except a bit of back ache now and again which goes off when I rest,I have just started creatine, I also have a couple of glasses of red wine now and again no problem.

You have severe sarcopenia, osteoporosis and hypogonadism. Probably more dangerous to your health and wellbeing than the PCa right now. I would (and am) going for testosterone replacement. Lacking that RAD-140 is your best choice of a SARM that does not stimulate PCa growth.

[Radars in reply to MateoBeach]

what is hypogonadism,on the 25th April I had a reclast infusion will that help me.

[Radars in reply to MateoBeach]

I have been reading your profile you have done really well since 2007 you are similar to me mines 3+4with seminal vesicle invasion, rt/ht finished 2016,when it gets metastatic they tend to give you testosterone.

[MateoBeach]

the entire range of effects of deficient testosterone.

[Radars]

yeah that's it I have asked for a referral to see a oncologist instead of urologist, don't know how long that will take.

Hi Radars myself I have started drinking cold pressed organic Beetroot juice & I’ve noticed my energy levels have increased & pains in my prostate area are going away as the red pigment in beetroot juice offsets the Chemo & helps skin repair I bought my juice from Tesco the name on carton is: Beet It a 1 LTR size so give it a go a friend of mine is also drinking it

Good luck to you
