What is the next step
My PSA has been fluctuating and is now 0.65, doubling time is 16 months, I have not had
ADT
yet and my MO wants to just wait and watch. What do you think?

Adjuvant ADT & duration
When studies refer to adjuvant
ADT
with radiation are they counting the length of time from the start of RT or the end of the RT course ? And as previously questioned I didn’t quite get the answer I was looking for.

Testosterone volatility
It was not measured again until after I started on
ADT
and it has been >7 ever since. Is there a way for me to extrapolate what it would have been in 2021 when I was DX with Gleason 9.? How Volatile are "T" numbers?

ADT response and questions for MO
As he's got low volume, was healthy, lean (prior to
ADT
) and fit, and min symptoms we are wondering if he can go hard for total remission. Seems like
ADT
plus RT will knock it back for a while, until it comes back as CRPC.

PSA doubled in last 30 days after 4 months stable since Provenge. What's next?
I have been off of all
ADT
since finishing fourth LU-177 injection five months ago and one SBRT treatment 4 months ago. After LU-177, PSA had been climbing quick until leveling off at 1.77 even as testosterone slowly returned.

How to convince a GP to prescribe estradiol patches?
I've been busy with
ADT
for almost 5 years and one of the most insidious SE has always been hot flushes. I find them quite debilitating as, when they hit (and that's often), I'm briefly incapable to concentrate/perform any task.

Quite happy with ADT
Almost 83 years old, living presently in Germany, RT and PT not possible,
ADT
during the last 9 months (Lupron quarterly), PSA down to undetectable, quite happy with that.

Dutasteride Monotherapy is effective for Newly Diagnosed PCa men not on ADT
Neither group is on
ADT
. Dutasteride monotherapy (0.5 mg/day) causes an average drop in PSA of about 50% in both Groups, and an average drop of about 20% in prostate volume. In one man, his PSA dropped from 43 to 3 (a 93% drop)!

How important is missing 2 months of ADT?
How important is missing 2 months of
ADT
for the effectiveness of the RT? I don't wish to be antagonistic, but I'm pretty pissed because of their mistake. I just don't know how important it is. Any data out there about gaps in
ADT
?

ADT + Zytiga holiday???
The nerve pain has gotten worse and my oncologist and neurologist are wondering if
ADT
or Zytiga are too blame. Anyone have experience with these drugs and nerve interaction?

Long term ADT bone loss mitigation tips?
My post RP BCR was diagnosed 8 months ago when they said, "you will be on
ADT
the rest of your life". I am on Lupron and abiraterone 4 months now. I am taking 1000mg of calcium per day and 2000IU of D3 per day. If I am lucky enough to last years, what else can I do to prevent the loss of bone?

Update On Eclipse Trial-another failure. Has LU-177 worked for anyone?
Due to cardiovascular problems, going back on
ADT
is a last resort. What do you guys think?

Does this mark the beginning of castration resistance?
Can anybody please let me know whether this is reasonable fear given this increase and perhaps what options others have found that may help him perhaps prolong
ADT
?

Testosterone Recovery Time after 1 Year of ADT?
I am ending
ADT
at 1 year. As of today my Testosterone is <0.01. It was 4.3 mg/mL before my first shot. Is there any data on how long it will take a 61 YO to start to see some T come back? Anyone here of a similar age and duration have any words or wisdom on what to expect?

Decided on brachyboost plus 6 months ADT
After a lot of research, questions and consults, he has decided on brachyboost (EBRT plus brachytherapy) plus 6 months of
ADT
. It was a tough decision and we both know way more about prostate cancer now that we ever wanted to, but I am glad we did our due diligence.

ART Favorable Prognosis Adjuvant Androgen Deprivation Therapy A-ADT after Radiotherapy
I was also on
ADT
a total of 21 months reaching a nadir of 0.001 for some months...based on this study it should improve my odds of having better outcomes. I am now 9 months into my
ADT
vacation; dont know how this will develop.
