PSA #’s elevated from sex (After ADT and RT)
I’ve been on Active Surveillance since completing my
ADT
and RT both in 2017 &18 finally coming out of castration in 2019 / early 2020 with a basement T level, so I began Penile Rehab. Well over a year after that, I was able to resume (what I now refer to as) sexual relations with my wife!

Can this be considered castrate resistance?
Through
ADT
his PSA dropped to 0.4 in 16 months. In the last 3 months his PSA has increased as follows: September: 0.42 October: 0.45 November: 0.53 Is this considered three consecutive increases which people talk about or is this fluctuation normal?

"Real Thyroid"
Regard all. I've been treating hypothyroid for many years with Thyroid S (Thailand). I am seeing a new NDT called "Real Thyroid" from Vietnam. I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with this. I'm not finding any reviews when I search for them. Love to hear from anyone who uses this or has

T4 in Levo v T4 in NDT
Taking NDT I have often wondered how long the T4 in NDT starts to work and how. In Levo everyone states six weeks before it starts to work. Does anyone have a clue it could be interesting but I cannot find any information on it.

Having an op and NHS freaking out about suppressed TSH
I am having a very minor op under general anaesthetic and NHS have revealed suppressed TSH (0.024). They are basically refusing to operate until I get a Dr to say this is ok in the presence of normal T3 (5.2) and T4 (14.8). The problem is I self medicate with levothyroxine (50mcg daily) and one grain

Is surgery usually the only option?
Hi, I have a history of Endo and possible Adenomyosis - previously had cysts and lesions removed during laparoscopy (not sure if it was ablation or excision - it was over 10 years ago & I was quite uninformed at the time). I am approaching menopause age (no sign yet) - I was hoping this would alleviate

T3 / NDT
Hi - I'm 39 and have had hashimotos / under active thyroid for 10+ years. I have suffered from 3 miscarriages recently + had 2 poor quality / outcome IVF egg retrievals. I'm on 100mg of levothyroxine, TSH is in range (around 2) but T3 is really at the bottom of the range. I don't think I'm converting

Anyone out there in south Essex recently had NDT removed by their endocrinologist
I'd like to contact anyone else in the same area and situation as myself as I have recently had my NHS Armour prescription removedly a new endocrinologist. Please pm me if you're in this boat. I need T3 and it seems I may get Levo + Lio - anyone taking this instead of NDT with success? I am so scared

Finishing up my SBRT treatment this week. Now What?
Choose SBRT + 18m
ADT
as treatment. Finishing up SBRT(week of 12/9/22). My questions are: 1. How do we know that the RT was successfully executed/delivered? I understand the timeline and how to monitor the outcome of PSA recurrence.

PSA is relatively low, but I am having bone pain in my pelvis and spine
In September 2022 took a vacation from
ADT
and Nubeqa to give me a break and hopefully bring back muscle mass. I also had been having cardiac issues that my cardiologist suspects were made worse by
ADT
. My last labs after 4 weeks showed my PSA going to 1.7.

NDT, Stress, Heart Palps - Now What?
Hi All, I switched to NDT from levo around a month ago. I started to feel better on NDT right away and my TSH dropped from 3.1 to 0.7 within just 2 weeks. My Ts were still balancing - T4 was right at the bottom and T3 was only 24% through the range. I supplement with all the key nutrients and keep

side effects of Tamoxifen
I joined Health Unlocked in 2016 when my daughter was diagnosed with both breast cancer and diabetes. She was 36 at the time so it was the full works in terms of treatment. She underwent a lumpectomy in her left breast, chemo, radiation and has been on hormone therapy - 1 tab of Tamoxifen a day since
