please can someone advise?
I’ve posted here a few times of late, been feeling rough and exhausted since switching from Levo to Erfa 5 weeks ago. I’ve emailed the private doctor to get some advice as to whether the dose is correct she put me on. She’s said my question re doseage isn’t easy to answer and also she charges £20 for

Short Term or Long(er) Term ADT With Salvage RT
Happy to get off
ADT
(usual side effects, but not terrible), but some risk factors have me questioning the decision not to continue
ADT
in some form.

PSA rate of decline in ADT with ductal type cancer?
From my point of view, I had cancer that spread extensively throughout the prostate area and went metastatic hiding behind low PSAs under 1.2 for a long time and it’s probably continuing to spread despite the
ADT
. (I think the 9.7 PSA is a fluke.

T3 only
Hi all, I was just curious, those on T3 only, how did you go about switching to T3 only, what dose do you take and do you feel much better than on levo? This is the only thing I haven't tried other than NDT. Just thinking about it. Thank you.

Localized High Risk Pca (G9 4+5) questions
Questions I have: With a PSMA pet scan as being clear, do I need
ADT
therapy? I believe the standard of care is 2 years with radiation with high risk PCa. PSMA Pet scans are new, and not sure if there is clinical evidence, but with a clear scan, perhaps
ADT
therapy should be reviewed.

Current PCa treatment options in the UK do NOT include Triplet Therapy!
Apparently, the UK "gold standard" of treatment is to give a de novo APC patient either
ADT
+ AR or
ADT
+ chemo but not all three at the same time. They strongly recommend that I start with Prostap + Enzalutamide.

Antidepressants and ED
I've been on
ADT
for 4.5 years. Lupron and Zytiga. We all know the sexual health problems with that. I was getting depressed quite badly at times so I started Citalopram a few days ago. It's already helping but I have noticed a bit more ED. Maybe I have to give it some time to see.

Out of Date Erfa NDT
Hello, Can anyone tell me if they have taken out-of-date NDT? I have read that it may just be a little less effective but not harmful. Is this the case?

Sudden eyebrow loss
Has anyone else experienced sudden eyebrow loss since commencing treatment for hypothyroidism? I’ve been on NDT for six months and in the last month my (usually thick) eyebrows are incredibly sparse.

Will lowering T3 dose raise TSH?
I have been treated for hypothyroidism for the last 51 years, since the birth of my first child. For 12 years, T3 only, for 18 years T4 only, and for 19 years T3 only (since menopause). When I got a diagnosis for osteoporosis, I asked to have a T4 supplement for a T4/T3 ratio that would slow the parathyroids

Can a Levo dose be split Am and Pm, and can NDT be taken Am and a Levo dose added PM?
Hi Everyone, Still struggling with dose and timings 8 years into medication. I wasnt sure if anyone here has had success adding some Levo into their NDT regime in the afternoon, or whether its best to take Levo first thing in the morning (or bedtime if that the routine ) and or add a 2nd dose of Levo
