Hormone Therapies

Then he prescribed to me a Hormone therapy drug called Androcur, however when I looked up internet on the product information, Androcur has the same side effect listed as the Duodart, "it can cause blood clot". Of course I didn't take it.

Things are changing rapidly

I had also been put on Androcur along with my Zoladex implant in case it might work. This increased all my ADT side affects and I had miserable couple of weeks before my scheduled heart procedure on 20 December.

Aged 49, newly diagnosed, - An Update

He put me straight on a short course of Androcur and said that I would need a Zoladex implant within a few weeks. He told me that prostate cancer ‘feeds’ off testosterone and I needed to have my testosterone levels suppressed to slow the growth.

My introduction

Years of hormone ablation followed (Androcur, Lupron and Stilboesterol, but not Zoladex, which I could not tolerate). My cancer showing resistance in 2010, I had a radical prostatectomy on medical advice.
