6 months after radiation
I had SBRT in September and all went well. My semen was a bit brownish at first, but now has become bloody red. I went for blood work and my PSA has dropped significantly and I do not have an infection. I’m wondering what the issue could be…seems like it would have cleared by now?

PSA Bounce After Radiation Therapy
I am trying to understand PSA bounce or change in PSA levels after RT and have found two studies useful. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7465291/ https://www.nature.com/articles/s41391-021-00387-4 Some analysts distinguish between PSA bounce and biological recurrence, and see a possibility

PSA on the way up again
I am getting a little concerned about a increase in my PSA, and not just the increase, but also the increase in the rate of increase. Short history. Diagnosed March 2021 by MRI and biopsy Gleason 4 + 3, Stage T3B, ISUP 3 ADT (Zoladex) started June 2021 EBRT 60Gy in 20 fractions December 2021 Last

Update and about to start Radiation
Hi all - just a summary so far. Have been doing the triplet and recently finished the 6 sessions of chemo. Had my CT and Bone scans and then follow up with MO on Friday. All is as we expect - nothing shown in CT. Bone scan shows no new "uptake" in the mets places and nothing new. PSA at .41. I am

Dutasteride Monotherapy is effective for Newly Diagnosed PCa men not on ADT
This plot shows men that either don't have PCa (Group A) or newly diagnosed men with PCa by biopsy (Group B). Neither group is on ADT. Dutasteride monotherapy (0.5 mg/day) causes an average drop in PSA of about 50% in both Groups, and an average drop of about 20% in prostate volume. In one man, his

Spread in two months
I am rather devastated to learn after an MRI and then a PSMA that my met in the L2, even after cyberknife six months ago has now spread to my l1 and lower. I even have a met in my femur and rib. Psa went from .6 to 8 then 10 all in a couple months. Starting Pluvicto asap but I think that is the last

Am I becoming castrate resistant on orgovix?
I moved again and hopefully this will be the last time. So, I have had to put together a new Medical team and meet my new MO this Tuesday. My bio is pretty up to date. I'm stage 4 and have some lymph node mets and some bone mets. It's been over a year since my last scan which showed improvement from

Declining red blood cells.
This Poollover, and I'm stage 4 prostrate cancer. My anemia is slowly getting worse. I'm on Orgovyx and Zytiga which brought my PSA to 0.78 from 12. Where do I go from here. In June I'll be 87. Terry

Chemo or clinical trial?
Am scheduled for bone biopsy of met(s) from my hip tomorrow. Stopped Pluvicto after #3 due to rising PSA and progression. Hoping to get next gen. sequencing from biopsy sample and (maybe) functional testing. But, it's going to take some time to get results and I feel I can't wait. Pain has been getting

UPDATE
UPDATE Hi folks, I havnt been very active recently - mostly because things were going slowly, but well with my PCA. Ive just had my latest bloodwork which confirms a PCA increase with a doubling time of about 6 months. This is all very standard and to be expected - I am 4.3 years out from PSA of 1000

copper chelation is not something from the past: phase 2 trial gives hope!

Radiation after Docetaxel
My dad finished chemo Docetaxel in November 2023. In December his PSA was .61. In February it jumped to 2.3. He went for a PET scan. He went back to the doctor today his PSA jumped to 6. The scan showed that many of the metastasis in his bones shrunk are almost gone. There is one spot in his back that

my prostate cancer
Diagnosed in November 2022. Favorable intermediate with Gleason 6 & Gleason 7 (3+4), with 4 less than 5%, and low Decipher score. On AS. 13 months later, one year MRI showed “concerning” images, with irregular capsule (visible), and extra capsular extension probable (interpretation from radiologist).

post radiation. Currently on ADT. PSA slight increase ?
Hey all, My father who started at 226PSA has finished radiation treatment about a year ago.: and remains on ADT. his PSA was sitting 0.03 but has jumped to 0.08. Is this any cause for concern? I took it as a positive as it sounds extremely low but now second guessing ..
