Treatment - radiation vs. surgery
Hello, I posted previously after I was first diagnosed and had some great feedback. I wanted to try once more after being able to spend the past couple of months researching and trying to make the best treatment decision moving forward. For anyone similarly affected, it might help to reflect on what

Private Consultation Findings - thoughts on next steps
Hello everyone. I am looking for some advice and experiences on Dienogest / Zalkya. Diagnosed in 2022 via lap by general gynae and never prescribed anything. Own GP has tried me on contraceptives & meds for pain management, which nearly tipped me over the edge. After a scare with my mental health,

ADT 's effect on body fat and muscle mass from Life on ADT blog by Richard Wassersug
ADT’s impact on Muscle and Fat October 23, 2023 Standard ADT with either LHRH agonist or antagonist drugs (like Lupron or Firmagon, respectively) cause a loss of lean muscle mass and weight gained as fat. Those are among the most common side effects of ADT. Patients experience this as fatigue for they

How long to Castrate Resistance: ADT+/- ARSI
Further discussion on details of EMBARK study on another HU forum bears restating here (IMO). For high risk BCR (and beyond) ADT combined with ARSI (in this case enzalutamide) is clearly superior to either monotherapy. However, development of castrate resistance between ADT + Enza vs. Enz monotherapy

ADT Holiday Coming To An End
After nearly 2 years of undetectable while on ADT holiday my 10/2 PSA result was 0.1. Today, 10/23 my PSA was .19. Seems like a rapid doubling time. Sent result to my MO. Waiting for a response.

Update
Just got my blood test results: Testo less 0.1 ng/ML and PSA still undetectable. Tomorrow I’ll receive my next 3-month Lupron shot, which will finalize my 24-month ADT after prostate bed and whole pelvic radiation. In the meantime I also had lymphoma and received four R-CHOP chemo cycles, two cycles

Long time reader / first time poster…
Hello all, Been on here for quite some time reading about other men’s stories but have yet to get in the trenches until now. Not sure why; maybe just reluctance to accept my situation, even though my “situation” has fully accepted me. It’s been a bumpy road. PSA 12.5 at diagnosis 11/2019. Been checking

Do low PSA-producing cells still rely on testosterone to grow?
Am curious to know what the folks here know about this question. If higher PSA cells are driven to near extinction by ADT, and if only low-PSA producing cells survive, are the latter still dependent on testosterone for survival? If not, what do they depend on to grow?

EMBARK Study: ADT vs Enzalutamide +/- ADT
Results of the EMBARK study was published this week (10/19/23) in NEJM. It compared high risk BCR PCa treated in 3 groups: Lupron ADT alone. Enzalutamide plus ADT. And Enzalutamide monotherapy. 5 year follow up for metastasis free survival. Results below. Interesting that Enza monotherapy (No ADT) was

Would I be on thin ice if I tried adaptive ADT this soon?
After 6 weeks on Lupron and 9 days on abiraterone, my PSA was .1, and my testosterone was <1. This is within the criteria being used to start people on adaptive in this MCSPC Moffitt study with Jingsong Yang - (he says I can just follow the protocol without being in the study)https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Has anyone had an orchiectomy and if so how were your side effects and how is your life after the Big O.I'm scheduled to start Full Pelvic Radiation in 6 weeks but fear the long term side effects. I asked if anyone here had FPR and if so what were their side effects and life like since then. Thanks for
