T never recovered after ADT and 44 EBRT sessions.
I have an RX for the
androgel
but trying to decide if I should start it again. I have very little energy and no libido ( 77 years) but getting by. I read this site daily and love the information provided here. Any suggestions much appreciated.

Hypogonadism After Prostatectomy
At the last appointment 2 weeks after the surgery, surgeon tells me we can discuss going back on
Androgel
in a year. Prior to the surgery, I had told him I expected to go back on

High PSA after surgery
Well, obviously I can't have a sex life with a Testosterone level of 38 and can't go back on the
Androgel
with a PSA of .31 and i'm still incontinent (which I will admit is not as bad as it was).

bone met
Had a PSMA scan that showed 2 Mets, one to lymph node, the other to a rib. Well there is no cure for me now. The met were radiated about a month ago but my side where rib is still sore. I assume the cancer is growing. They decided to not use ADT. I know that I am at the end. So getting my affairs in

I am a stage 4 PC patient diagnosed in August 2021 and have been on ADT double therapy ever since.I get Lupron shots every 3 months and take 2 tablets of Apalutamide (Erleada ) evey day. I have been lucky that I responded well to the treatment and have been undetectable ever since. I

Good news on recurrence
Hi Ladies I’ve had good news from my July scan report. All new growth from recurrence is NED, good partial remission 😊 I had 6 cycles of Caelyx/Carbo after recurrence when 7 months of PARP Olaparib should have but hadn’t work, instead had new growth. I also started Avastin privately with Lloyds

Neuroendocrine cancer % in APC patients is not rare, it’s becoming common.
How do we help men, on this site, to reduce their chances of getting NEPC? I did a PSMA PET scan today. My blood tests looked pretty normal with psa at .5 and other tested looking like they usually do, except for blood glucose, which is normally in the 93-99 range for the past five years, but was 76

Getting a serial liquid biopsy post-ADT
Any experience/tips getting serial liquid biopsies approved by US MO's? My MO has not brought it up but I am off ADT after 21 months due to undetectable PSA since the get-go. So now I'm on the check-PSA-every-3-month program. I wonder why serial liquid biopsies aren't SOC at this phase too? There

Zytiga or Erleda
When adding second line hormone treatment do MO’s add zytiga first and Erleda later or does it matter what order? Thanks and Happy Monday!

"Undetectable"
We hear the term of "undetectable" with a psa of < .1 used so often. When I was first diagnosed and had an RALP I bought into the use of this theory. As the months clicked by and I was "undetectable" I was slowly gaining confidence and reassurance that this was true. Eight months later a .1 shattered

Brain Fog and ADT
Let's say, just stretching the imagination, that since testosterone is necessary for cognitive function, ADT, in lowering testosterone, lowers brain function to some degree. But in my case, ADT does not bring T to zero. I seem to have a T reading of around 12 or so in spite of the ADT. But some more
