Start worrying when your tits start to look like domes................But I must admit they look fashionable on me....

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.

Same here j-o-h-n. I think my domes are looking good. 😊

There’s nothing to be ashamed of. Some side effects are just more noticeable than others.

I'm glad to hear that it's rarely a problem with Orgovyx; that's new information for me. 👍

But I don't think your questions gotten answered yet.

It's been about 2 years since I was similarly concerned about the possibility for myself. There is information somewhere on this forum about preventative measures, but for the most part I forgot what they are because I didn't follow up on them for myself. You might want to try doing some search work for previous posts about it.

I think I did have some slight enlargement on Lupron, but not noticeable. Maybe I just got lucky.
