Protecting our Manhood
OK, I'm going to be open and honest and looking for the same from my fellow compatriots. From what I know, ADT, once it gets going, will physically affect our family jewels. Shrinkage is one of the things that is likely to happen. What is the best way to try and reduce these effects? I see that

Testosterone Recovery Time after 1 Year of ADT?
I am ending ADT at 1 year. As of today my Testosterone is <0.01. It was 4.3 mg/mL before my first shot. Is there any data on how long it will take a 61 YO to start to see some T come back? Anyone here of a similar age and duration have any words or wisdom on what to expect? My next test will

sudden drop in thyroid results!!
I recently had some health concerns which are still being investigated, in the meantime a new symptom of swollen face has occurred and I seem to of gained all the weight I just lost. I got some thyroid results today and was shocked to see how they have decreased when I usually have a steady result.

PSA holding low after all!!
As I complained a couple of months ago that PSA could be increasing, today the PSA moved a bit down from 0.03 3 months ago to 0.01 today :-), so I needed to write a few words here about my feelings. With a warm-hearted attitude, somehow enthusiastic but foolish too, as these things are never static,

Orchidectomy vs ADT
For anyone who had the bilateral orchidectomy, I would like some advice for my husband. When was it done? Before or after BCR occurred? What are the side effects? Do you take any other ADT meds after? How is your QOL and is there anything you'd do differently. He had RP in Dec 2021. No other treatment

I have been on Lupron since June 2022. September 2023 Abiraterone and 5mg of prednisone was added. Psa was 19 in Sept and dropped to 1.26 as of Jan. 11 2024. Since going on Abi when I get a monthly Lupron shot I have trouble sleeping that first night and mild flu like symptoms the next day. I have agreed
