Is ADT routinely given after prostatectomy
am thinking
prostatectomy
might help with the BPH issues of pain and frequent urination

Yale New Haven
will have
prostatectomy
. Considering Yale New Haven, as I’ve been seeing a urologist in the network for the past few years. Would like to know about the experience of others that have done same procedure in YNH, and whether they recommend it.

Had appt with urologist, although already stated no surgery
Had appt and the urologist seemed to he trying to persuade me to have
prostatectomy
although I was clear at diagnosis no surgery primarily due to incontinence issues.He said permanent incontinence occurred in less than 5% of cases, I disagreed and said 10/15% is nearer the mark am I correct?

Prostatectomy
I was scared to death to hear that I had cancer. My Father died from it. There was no offer for chemotherapy or radiation. I was told that my doctor needed more experience with the DaVinci robot and I was chosen. I died that day and was traumatized beyond traumatized and purposely given ecoli and regretted

Out of town prostatectomy
For those that have had a
prostatectomy
out of state, who did most of the follow-up? Did you have a local urologist too? I suspect a local urologist would be hesitant to follow up on a patient whom had his surgery done by someone else.

Chronic pain after prostatectomy
My friend had robotic
prostatectomy
in May 2019. In the almost 5 years since he has experienced daily abdominal pain. He has seen numerous doctors but none of them have been able to diagnose the source of the pain. He is an invalid due to this problem. Does anyone else know of a similar case?

PSA Rising and MRI Negative
My husband PSA has been rising after
Prostatectomy
. A recent PET Scan showed cancer cells in the Prostate bed, but the MRI didn't pick-up any disease. The Oncologist is checking labs, and will start my husband on HT.Question for the group.

Satisfaction with AUS after Radiation
I have had both a
prostatectomy
and salvage radiation (see profile). I regained continence after the
prostatectomy
. But about 6 months after the salvage radiation I started leaking due to stress incontinence and it has gotten progressively worse.

PSA, total
I had a RP June 2023 I just got the results from my forth PSA test the first three were a post
prostatectomy
PSA test and all three were 0.02 this last one was a PSA, total. That’s what the Urologist wanted and it came back 0.10.

Mr Geoff Lloyd
Prostatectomy
in 2011 followed by the "all clear". PSA refused to disappear and so RT followed. PSA still present and PC nodules found in my lung in 2021.

Open or Robotic Prostatectomy
An open
prostatectomy
might give the surgeon a better view of the surgical field. Does anyone have any wisdom to lend me so I can make a choice between open or robotic
prostatectomy
?

Month 5 of ORGOVYX
After radical
prostatectomy
and radiation treatment, I’m now on ORGOVYX and my testosterone has decreased from 672 to 11. I’ll be coming off the medication in one month. If anyone has used ORGOVYX, do you stop cold turkey or is there a tapering off of the drug? Thank you.
