When do hot flashes end once ADT is suspended?
I was on
ADT
(Eligard) quarterly injections from January 2021 to November 2022 (two years). I am still experiencing the side effects of frequent hot flashes, low energy levels, weight gain, etc.

Any suggestions for supplements to augment Docetaxel/ADT?
Halfway through chemo with Docetaxel. PSA at 0.02 for last two measurements. Anyone aware of any supplements that may help? I am also on Lupron and darolutamide. Treating Pulmonary mets.

Prolia
On
ADT
(Eligard and abirterone with predisone) since June 2022. Went for a second opinion this week with a medical oncologist who specializes in prostate cancer. He stressed the need for me to start on Prolia as soon as possible.

First Post Biopsy Consult
I should note here that my living brother had Gleasons in the 9s and has had aggressive treatment -- the battery of prostectomy, radiation,
ADT
, etc. My deceased father did not die of PCa (and was a regular Lupron receiver).

Long term HDRBrachyboost side effects testimonials.
I’m leaning heavily to HDR Brachyboost +
ADT
. (Due to high decipher score). (4+3, T1c) I’ve seen too many charts and stats on long term side effects of Brachyboost. I’m 58 and need to think way down the line.

To treat or not to treat
By March 2020 this had caused my PSA to drop to virtually undetectable and I decided to come off
ADT
which I had been on (with some breaks) since April 2011 after RRP and RT to the prostate bed. Prior to radiotherapy
ADT
was ceasing to be effective and my PSA had risen to 6.75.

Incontinence after RP and ADT
Although slower due to the
ADT
I still exercise regularly and am fairly active. Has anyone had a urethral sling procedure and if so, did it work? Are there any other options that are successful? Thank you.

PSA keeps rising
My current oncologist will likely recommend
ADT
and radiation. I'm not too happy with my oncologist and will probably request a change which will mean a few more weeks delay in treatment. Should I get
ADT
shot immediately?

Anomaly PSA jump of more than 25%?
I am not happy with husband's doctor as I pushed to have PSMA-PET done after this jump (before this last PSA there was 6 years of stable PSA following RT w/o
ADT
), but both husband and doctor said, wait.

PSA reading
I had PSA resistence so I have been on
ADT
since April 15. I have my PSA checked last week and the report came out yesterday with two results: < 0.006 ( by medical lab with the examination of serum) and < 0.058 ( by nulcear medical check).

biochemical re-occurrence
For those who had biochemical re-occurrence and were treated with
ADT
and radiation what has been your outcome over the years? basically, what I am asking were you cured and had a favorable outcome? How many years have you been with a low PSA, no further issues or, for that matter cured?

Rising PSA...again..
By December 2019 I was alarmed enough to start
ADT
with Elegard and in February 2020 I started radiation therapy for 8 weeks. My PSA finally went down to 0.008 and remained there until now. My PSA is 0.19, a significant rise it seems to me. Not sure what comes next, at this point.
