How many estrogen patches should I use?
In this latter case, men should be able to simply replace Lupron
ADT
with high-dose transdermal estrogen (patches, gels, or IM shots). Or, they can combine Lupron
ADT
+ transdermal estrogen (either low-dose or high-dose).

3 Abiraterone tabs in place of 4.
So with this small sample of results there were really no change in
ADT
effectiveness. I will add that I was on the 4 tablets for about 5 months prior to moving to the 3. Just food for thought.

He has been on
ADT
since January, and tolerating it well. He is active almost daily. I believe chemo is the next step according to his MO. Gleason 9, original diagnosis in 2019. Does anyone have similar diagnoses with some uplifting stories?

Non metastasis castrate resistant
When you are on
ADT
and become Non metastatic Castrate resistant and your testosterone levels are below zero, what is the cancer feeding off to cause the PSA to still rise? Hoping for your replies so as to give me some understanding. Thank you.

Side effects from Xtandi monotherapy?
after failing multiple times on regular
ADT
plus SBRT and finally failing LU– 177 and Provenge, my PSA went on the rise again. I’ve been on mono Xtando for six weeks and not feeling well despite trying to exercise heavily. Going in for bloodwork tomorrow. What kind of labs should I ask for?

post radiation. Currently on ADT. PSA slight increase ?
.: and remains on
ADT
. his PSA was sitting 0.03 but has jumped to 0.08. Is this any cause for concern? I took it as a positive as it sounds extremely low but now second guessing ..

Cardiovascular disease in men with pc
Men with pc are more likely to get cvd than non sufferers, is this due to
ADT
when advanced pc is treated or are there other reasons

My husband is in year 7… He has been on the traditional SOC with
ADT
… Lupron, Firmagon, Nubequa, and lastly Zytiga. All have ceased working. His PSA has risen to 47. Auxium scan shows pretty extensive growth in Retroperitineal Abdominal area.

palliative radiation treatment questions
As he’s not on the Goserelin
ADT
treatment, it would seem that metastasis will continue. 1- I don’t understand why the radiation treatment would not change the trajectory of the disease.

Dad 2nd BCR. Advice needed...
He has been off
ADT
for 1 year when PSA began to rise again. From 0.01 to 0.03 in less than 2 months then 0.05 after another 3 months. Is this indicative of an aggressive progression and metastasis?

How do I update my bio?
My MO said don't worry about my rising testosterone, which is now up to 320 ng/dl; he said just keep an eye on my PSA, and if it goes up to 0.20, then we'll consider going back on
ADT
(abiraterone and 3-month Lupron shots). Thanks in advance.

Diet for duration of ADT?
What diet should I be following while on
ADT
for the next two years? Guidelines from handout sheets are contradictary and unclear. I have been on Orgovyx for almost three months, starting on February 27, 2024. My PSA has dropped from 9.2 to 1.2 to 0.9.

I am about to start
ADT
and salvage radiation in 2 months (PSA 0.052) . So in mean time I was going to check him out and wondered if anyone who does a ton of research has heard of him?

To PET or not to PET
I have been battling PCa for 10 years: prostate removed,
ADT
, and three courses of radiation over that time. The more I think about it, I see another source of radiation as not helpful.

CV and Bone Health when ADT is a treatment option.
Thought this provided a useful framework to guide discussion with my medical team when discussing whether or not and what to do about CV and bone health when starting on
ADT
.

Mortality Risk Up for Cancer Survivors With Elevated Loneliness
Especially with men on
ADT
with the attendant mood swings, depression, fat gain, & loss of libido, I can see how that could occur. https://www.practiceupdate.com/news/45931/2/1?
