Looking for Testosterone Information
Two months ago I started a drug vacation stopping Casodex,
Avodart
and Metformin. My testosterone has declined from 158 to 95 since starting the vacation. My research tells me that my testosterone should be increasing not decreasing.

Transdermal Estradiol update - edited 10/30/2018
Nine weeks ago I started applying ~1¼ mg of tE2 gel daily plus taking 0.5 mg of
Avodart
(the
Avodart
was suggested by Dr. Myers) every other day and my PSA has declined from 0.71 [4/01/2018] to 0.046. My alkaline phosphatase has also has gone down from 117 [7/13/2017] to 82.

Any New Suggestions for Dealing With Increasingly Debilitating Cognitive, Affective and Physical SEs from ADT?
I've been on LHRH shots (Luporon, Zolodex, now Trelstar) for 18 months, and Casodex &
Avodart
for the last 12 months, due to look at stopping ADT around December 2018. MRI, CT and bone scans in October 2017 were clear. PSA and testosterone continue to be at or below measurable levels.

Asking Local MO to add Avodart and Metformin to Xtandi
Because so many here have mentioned adding
Avodart
and/or Metformin to Xtandi, I need some tips to convince the MO. She doesn't specialize in PCa. I also want to double check why Casodex was added. Thanks in advance. Mary

MOs for some perspective and second opinion??
I see him again in June and will ask about
Avodart
, Proscar, etc.. and also about Zytiga, Xtandi, and others instead of or in combination with current ADT, but I suspect he will waive them off (maybe for good reason - I don't know).

Melatonin + Xtandi + Avodart Could Delay crPCa
Hey Nalakrats decipher the study below...how much melatonin and when to take...looks like it is an inhibitor of AR-V7 Gus https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5485954/

For Prostate Cancer You Don't Need a Rocket Scientist
Then I found an old time urologist who only knew Lupron...I told him my goal and asked for prescriptions for Xtandi/
Avodart
/Metformin/Arimidex/Cabergoline rec'd by Myers and Strum, and also T shots so I could do Xtandi/BAT and he said sure...my only goal at this point is to try and prevent CR. Gus

Backdoor Dihydrotestosterone [DHT] & CRPC.
Myers would prescribe
Avodart
for men with castrate T but non-castrate DHT. Sometimes, one cap per week was enough to control DHT. IMO, it is prudent to use
Avodart
while on ADT. I use it as prophylactic, rather than corrective.

CRPC & Avodart [Dutasteride].
If
Avodart
were to be prescribed at an earlier stage, perhaps CRPC might be significantly delayed in those men who were destined for the DHT escape path? So, what's next for these researchers? Perhaps Simvastatin for CRPC cases that have failed
Avodart
? Just kidding.

HGPIN & Statins.
Avodart
/Dutasteride), which can dramatically reduce the incidence of indolent low-grade PCa, I posted a study that showed no benefit for men with high-grade PIN [HGPIN]. HGPIN is generally considered to advance to PCa within 12 months following diagnosis.

Started BAT on 75th birthday with psa just starting to rise after 11 years of IADT with several vacations of 9 to 16 months of just
Avodart
and supplements mainly consisting of pom seed extract and green tea extract.

ADT or incontinence ? if you had to pick
Over the last year my PSA has been creeping from .3 last to 2.4 today, I have been on
Avodart
since my cryo and I am told I should double the PSA results to account for the effect of the
Avodart
I am 60 years old and hope it is still confined to the Prostate and could be still treated.

Just started Xtandi
Since then have been on Lupron, Casodex,
Avodart
, Estrodot patches and Metaformin. In last six months psa started to rise and last test was 2.8. Had MRI which showed two lymph nodes in my groin were enlarged.

Opinion on radiation to bone mets.
We've asked about genetic testing/molecular sequencing, adding Metformin and
Avodart
, etc. Unfortunately, they have no clinical trials, at the moment that would make sense for Jeff.

Jevtana [Cabazitaxel] & Androgen Status.
(a)
Avodart
will block DHT production. (b) A statin such as Simvastatin might reduce cholesterol uptake. (c) The statin would also inhibit the creation of cholesterol. (d) An antiandrogen such as Casodex of Xtandi, if not resistant, will inhibit AR activity.
