Radiation Questions
Post RARP, and I'm meeting with my surgeon's PA to discuss next phase of treatment. Margins, nerves and seminal vesicle were positive, so probably continuing with ADT with addition of radiation. Question: What questions should I be asking on Friday? Any additional guidance is appreciated. Thanks!

New Data: Finasteride Safely Prevents Prostate Cancer'These Results Are Transformational,' Says Researcher May 20, 2018
But: "Who uses it today? Almost nobody." "We have answered the questions and closed the book." As reported in 2003, the risk for prostate cancer over the initial 7-year study period was 25% lower with finasteride than with placebo. That risk reduction now "goes out to 16 years, at least," (unlike ADT

Decision time Lutetium or AM509
M1, five bone lesions, mCRPC with PSA now doubling each month (currently at 1.7), after failure of abiraterone. I've been offered a "slot" for two clinical trials: AMG509, a bi-specific T-cell engager, and a new version of Lutetium therapy, called Lu-DOTA-TLX590-CHO (which they say is novel, and seems

Recent doctors review
Hi guys, I just had a follow up with my doctor asking for a referral to the gynaecologist and she told me that I can't have a referral until I try three months of treatment which means going on hormonal treatment that I don't want. She also said that if my symptoms get better on hormonal treatment then

Abiraterone and fatigue in 78 year old dad
Abiraterone and fatigue Hi my dad is 78 in April and lives in England. He had prostate surgery in 2019 but cancer had already spread. He's had chemo and ADT.

Lycopene + Sulforaphane - Forms, Dosage, Upsides, Downsides?
I've got Gleason 3+4 PCa, PMSA PET, 3T MRI, CT Bone Scan show nothing outside capsule, but 31 PSA (Age 53). Have Robotic Prostatectomy scheduled in a couple months. Done tons of research and the area I'm most "unsure" of is CAMs (Complimentary Alternative Medicines). From what I've gathered, Lycopene

PSA going up
So after being on lupron/zytiga for 2 years and having a PSA of <0.1, I stopped ADT last Feb. It took until about September for my testosterone to start to reappear. My PSA went up to 0.1 in September so about the same time my testosterone came back. I just got my results back and it is up to 0.2.

SBRT or Lu-PSMA for Oligometastatic HSPC? How about Both?
Here is a personal update about my case. I have been doing follow up PSMA PET scans of pelvic lymph nodes in left pelvis since that region was treated with EBRT in late 2019. PSA dropped from 0.28 to 0.14 following treatment and drifted lower but never undetectable. I have been off of ADT and using cyclic

Zytiga one week in
A week ago I ask a question about the effects of Zytiga a treatment I was about to start. The replies were all very helpful so thanks to all. For the first couple of days I felt quite rough tired and a sort of fussy brain but that has now faded and it more or less feels the same as other ADT treatments

Does PSADT calculation make sense when testosterone is increasing
During ADT break PSA increases as testosterone increases. How relevant calculation of PSADT is when testosterone is increasing?

ADT and hip replacement.
I had a hip replacement about 15 years ago and finished a year of ADT with my last Eligard injection at the end of 2020. Recently I have noticed pain in my affected hip and was wondering if any others have experienced similar. I suspect from the symptoms that I will need a hip surgery revision and that

Effect on Hair of Ending ADT
I was diagnosed with my cancer at age 56. At that time, I had developed a good sized bald patch on the top of my head. I am one month away from completing a 24 month ADT treatment plan. During that time, my wife tells me that my hair has considerably thicken over my previously bald spot. It's still pretty
