ADT
this month - but my results came back and showed a dramatic drop.

The human microbiome links to prostate cancer risk and treatment (Review)
Androgen deprivation therapy (
ADT
), hormone therapy and chemotherapy are also effective in male patients with Pca (8). However, certain patients progress to castration‑resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) within 2‑3 years after starting
ADT
treatment, resulting in a poor prognosis (9).

Am I over medicated?
My Free T4 always comes up low. I understand from this grp that this means I am over medicated. I do not feel over medicated, but am I doing myself long term damage? I currently take 45mgs of NDT & an extra 12.5mcgs of T3. (In one dose) each day. (& supplements) Thanks in advance.

Calcium, confused
After Dexa scan revealed osteoporosis ( 4 years of
ADT
) I started Prolia, supplements of calcium, vitamin d3 and k 2. Blood results from 2022, December, and April 2023 showed a score of 2.47mmol/L in a range from 2.24 to 2.58, so l have an adequate calcium level.

Do CRPC cancer cells always or usually act different then CSPC cancer cells, or do they sometimes act similar to CRPC?
If someone is castration sensitive (on
ADT
pause) and their psa is 40 (for example), and they show very little suspected cancer (5mm spot for example) on a PSMA PET scan or an Axumin scan, then is it likely that castration resistant cancer show very little (5mm), as well, on a PSMA PET or Axumin scan

Greetings from Sweden
Can PSA bounce during
ADT
? So if he already is castrateresistant should he have chemo? I am so worried again and hoping for advice from this group with so much knowledge and kindness. All the best to you all!

Looking for a doctor / functional medicine
Hi everyone, I am on 4 grains NDT and 20 mcg T3 per day. My FT4 is just beneath normal range, FT3 upper third of range and suppressed TSH. My endo is supportive but says he has never seen anyone on so much thyroid replacement! I am wondering why I need so much (and have a few symptoms I would like

Just had hysterectomy due to prolapsed bladder and think it's come back due to severe constipation.
Completely fed up. Does this mean I have to have surgery again? I have also ran out of ndt again for about the fifth time due to it being so expensive and my tsh was really high about 6.5 when I had blood test for my pre op. It was also high the previous time as I had ran out then as well. I hate

Bit lost …wondering where I’m heading …
Hi forum friends I went to my gp Friday to see what help I might get re my thyroid now and also if I might see a haematologist re high serum iron but low ferritin (28 …5-204) thus can’t take three arrows. I didnt get many answers as he concentrated on a current kidney/uti issue I have so he’s booked

Results of TSH Modification Experiment
I inquired last week about what effect I could produce on TSH within three days. I appreciate the expertise and wisdom I received. I had just seen an endocrinologist who wanted to cut back my NDT because my TSH was 0.027. You advised me to stick to my rights as a human being. The endocrinologist seemed

anyone got experience of private Drs or this reaction to dropping meds?
TO UPDATE, I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH AN ENDO FROM THE LIST AND AS MY ENDO ALREADY PRESCRIBES T3 ONLY THERAPY FOR ME (long story) HE MADE IT CLEAR THAT I WAS ALREADY GETTING THE BEST I PROBABLY COULD OUT OF AN NHS GP. SO NO NEED TO PAY PRIVATELY. Depressing to know no more nuanced help from anyone, but
