After ADT

[Nomiskneh]

Dear fellows, see my post "Adjuvant ADT". My question there was what to expect after completion of 24 months of ADT (22 june 2023). Now we are six weeks later and first results are in. PSA remained <0.1, whereas my T. rose from <0.4 to 0.9. Coming thursday I am seeing my oncologist/radiotherapist. Is there anything I should ask him about these results. I see him once every six months. Isn't that quite long?

I thank you all for your attention. As said earlier you have been a great support for me.

Sounds pretty good to me. Your PSA is undetectable and your testosterone rose a bit, which it is bound to do once ADT is over. The 6-month checks will track your PSA and testosterone but for now I'd try to decompress and live life.

Thanks for your uplifting words. I will try to life your advice.

Best wishes,

Seems about on track to me. I bet it will take another 6 months before you see much move in T. Seems ADT has a pretty long tail - a 2 year treatment ends up being 2 1/2 etc……

Hi OldVTGuy,

Thanks for your response to my post. I`ve seen my RO last week and he told me to wait and see. Next appointment in half a year.

Best wishes,

Henk
