HRT Question
Hello Ladies I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and wishing you all a joyous, prosperous and blessed 2024, in good health and happiness! I wanted to ask a bit of a silly question I guess, but how do I know 1. If I’m on the right kind of HRT 2. How much HRT I need 3. When I’m taking enough

Bereavement in depression
I lost my job 6 month’s ago, this was because I messed up while having to stop my HRT, I had to stop cold turkey and it made me loopy, depression and anxiety took over, struggling to get out of bed, but feeling guilty not having a job, trying to get one, but not at the top of my game and not being successful

Anger
Good morning, I had seen here recently some comments on anger and how ADT increases it. This is the first I've read about this, and it makes sense as I look back, I have developed anger issues. Question, is it anger from just being in this messed up situation, ADT for a decade, and just feeling the

Well, I just wrapped up two years of ADT (Lupron and Xtandi) on top of 36 rounds of radiation, and a RARP. At 57 when diagnosed (PSA 5.2, Gleason 4+3, one affected pelvic lymph node per PSMA PET scan), our plan was to throw the kitchen sink at my PCa and see if we can’t knock it out. Here I am at 59

Criteria for "my ADT has stopped working and we have to move to another"
Hello - So my third post ADT initiation (Lupron+Abi) PSA test is coming up and since it was <.1 six weeks ago, I asked how the criteria of “has stopped working” works -to my Hopkins MO and I got this - “We want to declare a therapy no longer effective when PSA is clearly going up. We look for 0.3

hot flushes
I’ve struggled with these for about twenty years and they have diminished over time. However, since going on preds, just over five weeks ago, they have got worse.

ADT and crying
Does anyone else that has been on ADT drugs for years have trouble with tears or crying for no real reason? I tear up anymore at just the thought of something sad. It’s a major pain in the ass, not to mention embarrassing because I am still employed. Wondering if there is a solution other than stopping

Still confused about PSA and Testosterone testing
I have been reading posts here for some time and there seems to be a split between those who only get PSA tests each time they go to their doctors and those that get both tests each time. I had a baseline testosterone test before Lupron and before radiation. I am now doing my 6 month follow up and

First DEXA shows osteopenia - hoping for some advice please
Hello everyone, this is my first post to Bone Health, but I have posted to other Healthunlocked forums recently as I’m trying to work through my various health issues. I’m in the UK and hoping to get some advice from those more experienced than me please. I paid privately for my first DEXA scan in April

Thanks and hope to all
No questions …just wanted to thank everyone for all your input and support …especially during the holidays. Had my Christmas radiation treatment yesterday and 7 of 15 linac dose today.. Brachytherapy prior with ADT for the last 7 months. Things seem to be going as smoothly as it sometimes does. Appreciate
